First Lush Haul =]

Ive taken the plunge ladies!


I am constantly browsing Lush's site, oogling over all the goodies! But not being able to see them in person (and smell them) has made me not order them due to the price.

Right now, Lush has a super offer where you get a ton of stuff for only 20 dollars. Lush's night in for two.

I also ordered a sample of the Therapy Massage bar and full size Rockstar soap!

Im so excited for my order to come in and i will post a detailed review on everything i bought.

My order included:

• Therapy Massage Bar Sample
• Rockstar Soap (full size)
• The night in for two package that includes:
• 2 Muslin flannels
• 2 Ultrabland Cleansers
• 1 face mask
• 2 toner tabs
• 2 face moisturizers

I chose Angels on bare skin, tee tree toners, and imperils moisturizer.

Im so excited and can't wait to receive my order in the mail. The only issue i have with Lush is the OUTRAGEOUS shipping price and time!

Contest Prize Question

Morning ladies!

I have a quick question.

I am keeping all of the prizes for the winner a secret right now like i said before. But they will be beauty/makeup related prizes.

BUUTTTTT i have a question.

I have the "new" Studio Sculpt foundation in NC25. Now i know some people LOVE this foundation, but it DOES NOT work well with my skin. It didnt break me out, but i just love my SFF much more. So should i include it in my prize package? There is about 98% left. And its just sitting in my traincase.

Should i include it?

Review: St. Ives Apricot Scrub Blemish And Blackhead Control

(image curtosy of www.drugstore.com)

After a few weeks of HATING my skin, I decided to jump on the apricot scrub bandwagon.

I tried this stuff back in middle school and could not stand it. It felt horrible on my skin. Ever since, I decided I would never waste my money on this stuff again.

Winter took a huge toll on my skin. I moved right before the start of winter from sunny, hot, humid Florida to freezing, snowy, dry Tennessee. Talk about skin on the fritz. And lately, my chin and jaw line have been freaking out in pimples and whiteheads! Im telling you I cant catch a break.

My Aunt's wedding was last week so I needed to find something to help my skin. Plus, ive been on the hunt for a new exfoliator. Cue on St. Ives Apricot Scrub Blemish and Blackhead control.

Packaging:

Love it. Upside dowen squeeze tube. Sturdy. Big base do it doesnt fall over. Sanitary since it isnt in a tub. A+

Texture:

Looks like grainy mustard. May be slightly too abrasive for people with sensitive skin. The scrubbing particles are slightly rough. Does not lather up. (at least not noticeably).

Smell:

Very light and faint. Those with sensitive noses would approve.

Performance:

This scrub did help my chin breakout. I used it on Monday last week. Then again on wednesday before leaving for the wedding. The breakouts on my chin started to clear up, as well as the whiteheads. I didnt feel this product was drying at all. Although I always follow up cleansing/exfoliating with a moisturizer. The scrub also helped slough off the dry skin I tend to have on my cheeks and around my nose. Made my skin looked more even overall and much brighter.

Honestly, for under 5 bucks, this scrub is excellent. It can be found nearly everywhere. I have seen it aty walgreens, CVS, my local grocery store, walmart, target, etc. I will definitely continue to use it this product 1-2 times a week.

Organix Teetree Mint Shampoo and Conditioner

I LOVE THIS STUFF!


Ok, ok, ok, its NOT perfect in everyway, but its pretty darn close!

Scent:
Minty, tee tree oil rolled into one! Really refreshing and wakes you up!

Texture:
The shampoo is exactly like that squeeze jelly! That is the only way to describe it. Its not heavy but very jelly-like. Lathers really well!
The conditioner is slightly watery, but i like it!

Price:
AMAZING! It is $6.99 for the shampoo, and $6.99 for the conditioner at Walgreens, but i bought them at Walmart. Reguardless, wonderful price.

Overall:
Tee Tree is wonderful for dry/irritated/itchy scalps! And the smell really gets the blood flowing! This really makes my hair SHINE! Which is unusual for my hair!
It does not weigh my hair down one bit, which is awesome for my curls or to keep my ironed hair from getting flat.
the biggest thing i dont like is that the conditioner has some alcohol in it. and i dont like that very much. BUT it makes a great conditioner to do when i dont shampoo. I try to only shampoo if i used mousse or what not in my curly hair and only try to wahs everyother shower. So the conditioner comes in great then! I can conditioner my hair without shampooing, but still feel like it is super clean due to the alcohol in it!

DONT FORGET!!!! to enter my giveaway. Its super easy to win, see how to enter. Click here to do so! Only about 2.5 hours left!
