LUSH BUBBLEGUM LIP SCRUB

The whole reason I stated my post was to share my interests and thoughts on beauty and things I absolutely love in my life...

I'm going to start my first ever beauty blog on BUBBLEGUM LIP SCRUM by Lush Cosmetics 


The  main attraction for me was the gorgeous shade of pink and the beautiful scent (in my best opinion) of snow fairy and creamy candy...
It smells as good as it tastes.
Mm..mmmmm.. Delicious!!

 I'm a lover of exfoliating but when it comes to my lips I don't wish to put anything to harsh on them, but I have found that this is the best product for my dry, chapped lips especially in these winter months. I wear ALOT of matte lipsticks and we all know that they can be a little difficult to shift at the end of the day so nothing feels more satifying then scrubbing off the excess lipstick with a lip scrub and it's even better when it tastes and smells so scrumptious. I also feel like it's a great base to apply your lip balm to make your lips super soft. 💋💋💋

I shall say that it does make you feel like you've eaten a doughnut without licking your lips . It has an oily texture with sugar particles leaving your lips feeling fresh, and silky smooth. I feel like you can apply this anywhere, you don't really need a mirror either, it's so easy to apply and the best thing is you can lick it off afterwards (yes.. Can you believe it..it's edible!) although if you don't fancy the thought of  licking sugar and oil off your lips then I would leave this to your morning/evening routine.

Lush have three lipscrubs
BUBBLEGUM
POPCORN
MINT JULIPS
RRP: £5.50 each 

I feel it's ABSOLOTLEY worth the money. This is going to last me a long long time as you don't need to apply alot, when the time comes when I sadly run out of my lipscrub I shall definatley be buying more! 

A LITTLE TIP: Store your lip scrubs upside down, this way it stops the oil from sinking and settling to the bottom. 

Have any of you brought a lush lip scrub? If so what are your thoughts?

Oh I do love to be beside the seaside... ☀️☀️☀️

I don't really know how to start this post as I'm SO EXCITED!!!

OKAY, basically around 5 and a half years ago I went on an abroad for the first time with some friends to Gran Canaria and I LOVED every minute of being in a hot country! This was my first and last holiday abroad in the beautiful hot sunshine. My parents always took us to Devon Cliffs, Exmouth every year, so this is why I hadn't been abroad..(I still go every year to this date, with my boyfriend, parents, sisters and their boyfriends) It's like one big happy family crammed into one caravan for a week.

Tobias (my boyfriend) asked me out litrally two days before I had my girly holiday back in 2009 and every year since I have been bombarding him to take me away...

TODAY WAS THE DAY WE BOOKED OUR FIRST ABROAD HOLIDAY TOGETHER...WAHOOO!!

 We have booked to go to TUNISIA.. I'm so excited!!!! Apparently it's a must to ride a camel whilst your out there, so the first thing I check is the camel rides... And the first thing Tobias checks is the duty free.. SHOCKER! It's our 6th anniversary he should be buying me a ring!! 

I can't wait until I go away on holiday. Have any of you been to Tunisia? If so what did you think of it?

Love My Friends

HAPPY WEEKEND EVERYONE!!!
Hope your all enjoying this fresh sunny day. We are all aware it's winter, it's cold, dark and misserable. No ones been paid for weeks.. (Feels like months) and everyone's counting down the days until we do so. When it comes to the weekend in bleak January NO ONE really wants to sit by them selfs on a Saturday night feeling like Bridget Jones.
 So when me and my friends discussed having a girly evening in the middle of January seemed a perfect excuse to wear onesies, fluffy socks and eat proper winter comfort food and of course a cheeky little catch up of "Keeping up with the Kardashians" I'm very lucky to have such wonderful friends, they are also the girls I work with. We cry, laugh and love each other ALOT.  Yes we bicker and argue but if anything ever happened to any of us we would all make sure that we stuck together. We all came up with a nickname "The Salon Sisters" which to be honest suits us lot down to the ground. Not everyone could make it last night, but we are together so much it doesn't really matter as we know some other day we will be making memories doing something else. What did you get up to this weekend? Please feel free to leave your comments as I would love to read them. Love Katie xxx

Pjs on, bra off, hair shoved up

Hope you've had a lovely day... Well what to say... We definitely didn't wake up to snow this morning! If you woke up in a winter wonderland let me know where your from. I'm currently sat in my room thinking to myself that this is most proberly my most favourite part of the day! All my candles on, makeup off, pjs on, bra off, hair shoved up, Netflix, scrolling though facebook scoffing my face with chocolates that are left over from christmas whilst sat in the cosy warmth! What's your favourite part of the day? Love Katie xx

HAPPY NEW YEAR

I know, I know I'm 14 days late... But the old saying goes its better late than never. Have you set yourself any New Years resolutions? If you have let me know what they are in the comment box below, I would love to know.

So.. Like I said in my previous post it was my day off today, I did NOTHING!! I litrally wore the most cosiest clothes, NO MAKE UP... (Which I am obsessed about) lots of candles on and whole blank page to write on, on my new blog ;). I choose to do nothing today because the weather was horrendous. Raining one minute, sunshine the next and with a long January who else feels like they got paid A LIFE TIME AGO... but the winter is not all so long and boring, Iv written down my top 10 favourite things about winter... Enjoy, Love Katie xxx 

Is blogging like a diary?

I very much doubt I shall be blogging daily, hopefully a couple of times a week but as its new but I thought to myself I may as well experiment. I actually write a diary entry every day in my own private diary (something else for you lovely lot to know about me) Iv done this since I was around 8…I used to write in my school diarys about all the lovely things I used to get up to at the weekends (My teachers never approved) but til this day I still like to keep tabs of the fun Iv been having. So hopefully that shall inspire me to write more in my blogs, any ideas of what you would like me to write about just pop a comment in the box below. Have a wonderful day. Love Katie xxx

okay... Here goes...

Okay, so I know blogging has become SOO popular over the last few years but I wanted to see what all the fuss is about, blogging looks so much fun... So please wish me luck as Iv spoken to a lot of people about blogging and so many people tell me to go for it, if I'm honest I'm a little worried as I don't really have any idea of what to do... So here goes...  Just a little about me... I'm 24years old, live in the most beautiful part of England (biased I know) and I found a MASSIVE love for makeup this year... 

P.S THANK YOU FOR FINDING ME AND MY BLOG, FEEL FREE TO FOLLOW AND I HOPE WE HAVE A WONDERFUL JOURNEY TOGETHER.... Love Katie xXx
