Last summer’s trip to Las Vegas had us venturing into the Venetian Grand Canal Shoppes after enjoying a Blue Man Group performance just moments before. I was looking for a Thank You present to gift to mom and chose the three pictured below. My mom thought they were too pretty to use =). Due to …
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 …
Alterna’s Ten Duo
I ordered the shampoo and conditioner duo via sample sale recently since I’ve been trying to get my hands on them for the longest time. Nice packaging but sad to say, this is not going to be much of a positive review: Alterna’s 10 Science of Ten Shampoo: Good consistency. So-so scent compared to other …
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 …
Pedicure Recommendations
This post is about some of the great affordable products I use for my at-home pedicures. As an aside, I’m planning to review several Lush footcare products in the near future. I’m glad there are some quality products out there since I do greatly benefit from more frequent pedicures and don’t always want to go …
Lush Review: Tang Bath Cocktail
This bath cocktail is a small reward for all the recent organizational milestones reached so far and for the 5 big loads of laundry I did yesterday (quite exhausting). 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 …
Lush Review: Walk of Fame Bath Cocktail
A really luscious milky pale lilac bath with sweet cinnamon and floral notes. Very relaxing indeed! At first it smelled very lavender but as I mixed all the ingredients together it became quite pleasing to my surprise. I hope you will get a chance to try this cocktail. Unfortunately, you may need to find a …
