Come to think of it, this is a lot like a winter hygge list… cardigan/sweater or faux fur lined hoodie: alpaca cardigan from Timber View Farm Alpacas and Victoria Secret Pink Collection lotion/body butters with at home spa accessories I posted previously (see Pure Fiji and Sonoma Lavender Company) hot beverage: my favorites are hot …
Lush Cosmetics’ Facial Masks
I’ve tried a few of Lush’s face masks and really love them! These are the ones I’ve tried for my combination, mildly sensitive skin (recommended via a Lush consult)… Cupcake: Great for oily or spotty skin. Catastrophe Cosmetic: A blueberry infused maintenance mask. Love Lettuce: Balancing mask for all skin types. BB Seaweed: A gentle …
Gumback Express Smoothie
I had heard about this amazing product from Lush even before trying it. At the time I came upon various posts regarding Gumback, the product was in discontinued status and was in high demand for a second wave of production. A few months later I saw it re-offered online (yayyy, Lush really listens to their …
Lush Review: Black Cat Bath Cocktail
Luscious purple bath, mildly sweet, mostly soft-scented herbals =) A great treat for yourself after your Hallow’s Eve candy-giving duties has been fulfilled. A few years previously we literally had over a hundred trick-or-treaters knocking on our door (13 bags of candy worth). Cobweb Bath Ballistic: Sweet, mild herbal scent. Black sugar Lavender absolute Chamomile …
Lush Review: The Ex-Factor Bath Cocktail
A perfect bath to chase away any blues (post-breakup or otherwise). This bath cocktail has a citrus-lime fragrance punctuated by a muskiness/woodsiness. It’s quite masculine; I didn’t mind though (kind of like sleeping in a boyfriend’s t-shirt). Reminds me slightly of Aquolina’s Blue Sugar (would be great to use post-bath for guys). Once I bought …
Lush Review: Tang Bath Cocktail

Very Tang in color and scent (orange, citrusy). This may seem rather strange, but the woodsiness of this bath also reminded me of pre-lit orange incense. …

Lush Review: Cheer Up! Bath Cocktail
After a disappointing end result of Project Runway: Season 9 (and the elimination of my favored designer, Fallene Wells), I decided a Lush bath cocktail was in order though it was very late. I’ve had the ingredients laid out since before vacation and boy did my feet need a good pumice scrub (which I saved …
Lush Review: Ceylon Tea Bath Cocktail
A bubbly, frothy melon-colored bath. This was a belated birthday treat to myself. I was occupied in a good way with celebrations with family and the completion of a school course. I didn’t get a chance to enjoy this bath cocktail until yesterday. 1 Luverly Bath Ballistic: A mild floral. My first guess was chamomile; …
Lush Review: Perennial Garden Bath Cocktail
My Perennial Garden bath cocktail was a sweet white powdery floral citrus blend. A perfect before sleep treat. My mind is always busy with some mundane thought but all I could think of were the pop-pops of the bath bubbles for a change. All I needed was a rubber ducky to sail on by. 1 …
