LITTLE LUSH HAUL




Hey lovelies! The other day, I was super surprised when a box of Lush goodies arrived in the post from my lovely sister Hannah. I was so excited as I don't live too close to a Lush store, so I don't get to go often, so it was definitely an amazing surprise to be treated to all of this - thanks sis!

She got me a few things I'd tried before as well as some that are new to me. One that I have tried before (and reviewed here) is the Catastrophe Cosmetic mask. I won't go on too much as I have previously reviewed this, but this is basically the best mask in the whole world, ever, if you have skin that's going through a bit of a tough time with all this crazy weather. It's perfect on sensitive skin with dry patches, but also sorts out any spots and oiliness too, perfect! Another item that's an old favourite of mine is the Tea Tree Toner (again, review here), which is again, amazing on skin that's a little bit confused. It isn't drying on drier patches, but is perfect on odd spots or skin that's breaking out. The final item I have tried before is 'Dream Cream', however I've only ever had a sample of this. This is a body moisturiser which is supposed to be amazing on super dry skin - particularly those annoying red bumps some of us (including me!!) get on the backs of our arms. The sample I tried of this was absolutely lovely, however I will review this in full when I've given it a proper go. It has a strange smell, it's not sweet or perfumey like a lot of Lush products, it kind of smells like Rosewater mixed with Playdough. If you've smelt it you'll know what I mean by this. It's in no way a nasty or offensive scent, just not the sweetest smelling product. The scent doesn't linger for too long though, so even if you don't like it, I doubt it'd be enough to put anyone off.

Onto the products I haven't tried before! First off is 'Roots', which is a Hair Treatment Mask meant to Volumise and Nourish your hair. I've never tried anything like this, so it'll be interesting to give this a go! The scent is quite minty, which I really like. I've heard the mint makes your scalp feel all tingly, but this is yet to be discovered! The next two items were the ones I was most excited about, mostly because they're pink! First is the 'Melting Marshmallow Moment' Luxury Bath Melt. I've never tried a bath melt before, but this one smells like Snow Fairy, so that's a very good start. This is supposed to melt really slowly, leaving your bath pink with a little foam on top, which is apparently super good for softening your skin. We'll have to see how this goes when I try it, but from scent and colour alone, I already love it! Lastly, she picked out the 'The Kiss' lipgloss, which is one of Lush's valentines products. This is a pretty gloss with a hint of pink, it's made from Shea butter, so not only does it leave your lips with a pretty pink sheen, it's also super moisturising too! This is in a tin, so it feels a bit strange to apply a gloss from a tin, but as it's sort of a balm to I can forgive it!

Let me know if you'd like to see anything reviewed individually, I'd be happy to do some!
Have you tried anything new from Lush lately? Let me know!
