Easter Lush April Showers Bath Bomb | Review

I review the Baa Bar from Lush's Easter range not expecting to have more Easter Products to review but I couldn't say no in my recent trip to the April Shower's bath bomb. Everything in this range has just been so cute. Every time I say the name of this bath bomb I start to sing that song of the the same name from Bambi, anyone else? 


This bath bomb is shaped like a cloud with little pink and purple rain drops in it. This bath bomb doesn't have a very strong scent, I don't know how to describe it, it's said to have violet leaf, cypress oil and cedarwood oil, it's very calming and if it's not weird I think they may have tried to make it mimic the smell of rain, obviously its more floral but soothing.


I thought that it might not be a colourful bath bomb as it's really white with not much more colour in it, but as it melts the coloured rain drops begin to swirl in together and make the bath pastel coloured. The bath bomb moves a lot around the bath tub, and dissolved faster than a lot of other bath bombs out there. I really like the combination of the pink, purple and white. It's really pretty watching them swirl into each other and the bath is left a subtle purple colour after. I think it's a really cute spring product. The bubbles in the bath tub are made from Zoella's Snow Scoop bubble bath, which is not in stock any more but the Scooper Dooper bubble bath is a similar product, it makes really good bubbles.



I really love all the Easter and Spring Lush range. Has anyone tried any of these new products yet? What do you think?

March Favourites | 2016

Hello again, end of March already is a little worrying, but at least we're heading into the summer months. I hope everyone's had a wonderful Easter and ate a lot of chocolate. Now I'm going to share this months loves with you now.



   

Garnier Ultimate Blends Dry Shampoo
My first favourite of the month is a product I've been loving for a while but forgot to repurchase. I've been using the Batiste dry shampoo instead for a couple of months and forgot how much I loved this one, especially the smell of it. I actually love the shampoos of this range too they're just the best smelling shampoos ever and they make your hair super soft. I find that this dry shampoo does the same and leaves your hair smelling fresh and looking clean, although you do have to rub it it quite well, you don't want to look like you've got dandruff.

Tresemme Care and Protect Heat Protector
I've also used this product prior to this month and have gone back to it. I spray the product into the roots of my hair when it's still damp and brush out before drying it so it doesn't damage my hair and it's meant to stay in your hair then even afterwards when you want to use heat on your hair again, as far as I know. Which is super handy and I do think that it does protect my hair even though I don't use a lot of heat on it anyway. I also love the smell of this too, it's not meant to smell of anything in particular but I think it smells really pleasant and does a good job.


Burt's Bees Beeswax Lipbalm
I'd always wanted to try Burt's Bees products, especially their lipbalms so when I saw this I had to get it. It smells like really fresh peppermint and leaves your lips feeling really minty and definitely hydrates them for a while. It's good to put on a lil' before you put on a lipstick. The only thing that I dislike about the product is how hard it is and how it doesn't come out of the tub very well I'm pretty sure it's just the fact it's made out of beeswax though, other than that it's one of the best lipbalms I've tried.

   

NYX Blusher and Bronzer Ibiza
I literally fell in love with this product before I even tried it. Again, I've not owned any NYX products before as they don't really sell them in drugstores near me and it's really sad. I managed to find a few stores now that sell their products and I'm so excited to try more of their stuff. I love the packaging so much on this blusher/bronzer, it's so pretty and also so cute to hold. I love the shades and the fact it's a duo. The product is so easy to blend I was so amazed by it and it makes my skin look so fresh and bronzed. I would easily recommend this product to anyone who can find it.

NYX Lipstick Eros
I thought this lipstick was going to be too orange-y for me but I really liked the look of it. It turns out it comes out darker than it looks and actually doesn't make my face look as washed out as I thought it would. The texture of it is super creamy and so soft I wasn't expecting it and I fell in love with it because of that. It does fade quite quickly but it's easy to top up and just pop on.

What's everyone else been loving in March? Has anyone tried any of these products before?

Easter Bunny Shirt | Outfit

Hope everyone has had a happy Easter to begin with, I'm here to share my Easter themed outfit for the week. For starters, if anyone knows me they know I love rabbits and patterned shirts, so rabbit patterned shirt was a huge yes. The dungarees just make it look cuter.


   


   

   

The shirt is from H&M, patterned shirts are so fashionable right now, I've seen so many amazing ones recently and I want them all. They're so casual and professional. The dungarees are from River Island and I just thought they'd look super cute together, even though it makes me look five years old. Oh well. I will admit it looks a little like a school uniform though.

Does anyone else wear patterned shirts and what did you wear over Easter?
