Review #16: Skin's Shangri La

Type: Face

This facial moisturiser is a godsend. Unfortunately, I don't have any images for this one; nevertheless, it's amazing.

I got this as a tester from Lush as well as celestial, and let me tell you, I'm glad I did. 

The scent of this reminds me of fluffy vanilla clouds and everything delicious ever. It has a creamy texture and applies extremely well to the skin.

This is good for any skin type and nourished my skin completely. 10/10 from me!

Review #15: Happy Happy Joy Joy

Type: Hair

Sadly, I don't have any images for this post as it was a tester and I used it all. Sorry!

This conditioner is amazing. Seriously. It is a light conditioner and was a hair fragrancing conditioner. I will definitely buy this again!

I rarely get comments on my hair but I was lucky enough to get as many as three- all the same- “your hair smells amazing!”

This beautiful scent actually endured washing, drying, and even my PE Lesson in the pouring rain. Caroline even commented on how my hair scent overpowered the scent of the (brand new) car air freshener. 

It left my hair soft and beautiful! Recommend this to any hair type. 9/10!!

Review #14: Honey I Washed the Kids

Type: Body

Someone summon the angels and tune the harp. Get the apples, I have the toffee. Heavenly toffee.

I can easily see why this is the best selling soap of all of the Lush soap creations. As if the cute honeycomb pattern isn't enough to have you sold, wait until you smell it!!

This product has THE most AMAZING smell. I dislike honey and have never been attracted to this soap until today I took a sniff. Instant love! The toffee scent infused every sense and even made my mouth water. I was extremely tempted to lick it- weird, I know. It's who I am. 

It smells delicious and left my skin supple and moisturised. Nevertheless, clean! It's refreshing, yet relaxing and comforting.

I would recommend this product to anyone with nostrils. Seriously. Even if you can't afford it, pop into Lush and just smell it. Top marks! 10/10 from me.

Review #13: Cynthia Sylvia Stout

Type: Hair

This shampoo is composed of, wait, beer? Yes, beer! Beer is extremely nourishing to the hair and creates body and volume. If you can't afford to tip a pint over your head, or want a strengthening protein shampoo, then get a load of this!

This shampoo firstly doesn't have the most appealing scent (in my opinion); it's quite clear that the smell here is simply beer! (Yes I'm an undercover poet. Sh. Keep it between you and me.) As an untypical teenage girl who doesn't hang around bargain booze of a weekend, I am really not fond of the smell of alcohol. 

However, I am fond of shiny, bouncy and healthy hair. So I can let the smell slide. The smell doesn't linger and it's not immensely strong, but I'll tell you what is strong, both my hair and my liking of this shampoo! 

I can't see any hair type having an issue with this shampoo. It lathers extremely well and washes out just as easy. Although the smell doesn't linger, unfortunately, it's knocking off a couple of marks for me. 8/10. I will repurchase this product, but I'm not afraid to look around.

Review #12: Jungle

Type: Hair

This is one of LUSH's solid conditioner bars. I have used it 3 times now, and it's working well! 

It smells like leaves. that's it. A clean, fresh scent that rests lightly and refreshingly on the hair. It's making my hair shiny and nourishing it well. Taming frizz well and it's looking healthy! Seems to have repaired my hair in some way. It has a cute tribal pattern on the top (which I have pretty much worn away with lathering) and it's moderately easy to lather. The first time I used it, I found it almost impossible to lather. With each wash it seems to have gotten easier. 

I rate this a 10/10! Refreshing scent and suitable for any hair types. A light to medium weight, shouldn't be a problem to any hair.

Review #11: Vanilla Puff

Type: Body and Hygiene

This powder deodorant smells wonderful. Each bottle has at least one vanilla pod ground into it to maintain the smell for as long as possible. 

For a start, my skin was left irresistibly soft and silky. The scent and softness lasted all day (since I applied it this morning), so about 14 hours now! I think this absorbs any moisture you produce, and the wonderful thing is, you can apply this all over the body! You could use a big fluffy brush, like a kabuki brush, to transfer the powder from the palm of your hand to the area of choice. 

Any skin type would be compatible with this product. Rated 8/10.
