Review // Lush Candy Mountain

Lush Candy Mountain

Before I start I just want to apologies for the fact that this was a limited edition product for Christmas but I just really wanted to review it! A great dupe for this is the permanent Creamy Candy bubble bar and the scent is very similar to the Rock Star soap! Back to the review, this has to be one of my favorite products that Lush came out with this year over the festive season, it's the perfect girly bubble bath with a sweet vanilla scent that isn't too sickly. Inspired by one of Lush's best sellers, Snow Fairy, this pink and cream glitter bubble bar is guaranteed to make you feel like a little girl again! I find the bubble bars are most effective when crumbled underneath the tap, this produces the best lather.

Sorry for the poor image the lighting in the bathroom isn't great! However it gives an idea of what it looked like in the bath, lots of bubbles and lots of shimmer on a sweet pink coloured bath. The scent is one of my favorites, I love all things sweet smelling and this defiantly did it for me and for £2.85 it didn't break the bank either. Overall a great bubble bar however I'm gutted that it was only a special edition, lets hope it makes a come back at the end of the year! Have you tried this product? Or if not what's your favorite lush product?

Review // Sleek i-Divine Storm Palette

Sleek I-Divine Storm Palette

This palette currently retails for £7.99 at Superdrug and after reading many reviews I caved in, brought it and absolutely loved it. This palette contains 12 beautiful shades ranging in formulas from mattes to shimmers, all of the colour's complement each other perfectly. The pigmentation is comparable to some of the more higher end brands, with each shadow blending effortlessly either just across the lid or into the crease. The top row features more lighter colour's while the bottom offers more of a darker touch. At first I didn't think there was much versatility with this palette however I have found myself reaching for it most days because it has the perfect shade to go with Mac's Cranberry or the perfect blue to give my smokey eye something else. Below I've included some swatches just to show you the range of colour's and beautifully they come out. Note they look even better with a good primer!

As you can see there are a range of neutral colour's with a few others just in case you wanted to try something different and step out of the browns, grey's and blacks. The lighter colour's didn't photograph as well as they looked in person which is a shame but in person they really do hold there own. The pigmentation is just not what you expect from a drugstore palette. I honestly can't rave about this palette enough and at £7.99 it is really a steal, a must in anyone's collection.
