Review - Body Shop Body Sorbets

Ok, I love these SO much. They have to be one of my most favourite moisturisers I have EVER tried!!
 Body sorbets are moisturisers that leave your skin feeling really refreshed - sort of like a cold feeling. They are also really light so they don't leave you feeling really oily and icky, they soak in superfast and are therefore great for people (like me!) who can't stand waiting for ages like a lemon for their moisturiser to soak in.

I have two, the satsuma scented one and the pink grapefruit version. Both of them smell so amazing and fruity. If the label didn't say 'Unfit for consumption' I probably would eat them!

I think there are five different scents - I definitely plan to get more!

Cute Strawberry Nail Art

I haven't attempted my own tutorial before, bit I love nail art and this is an easy and cute design inspired by the YouTuber Cutepolish...

Polishes you will need: 



-A base coat ( mine is Boots' own)

-A green striper (stripers are very thin brushes which enable you to draw straight lines

-A yellow striper

-A red polish

-Nail varnish remover and cotton wool balls

-optional - cotton buds (cotton swabs in America)

1. Remove any old polish - it is important to do this because any old polish or dirt will cause the new mani to have less to grip onto and chip more easily.

2. Apply a base coat - give your polish something to grip and protect your natural nails.

3. Apply two thin coats of your red polish. Never do one thick coat because it will take forever to dry and smudge very easily. Two thin coats will dry quickly and be very opaque.



4. With a green striper, paint small leaves at the tip of the nail.

5.With the yellow striper, paint small yellow lines or dots for the seeds

5. Add a top coat to seal in your design and add a shine that will last for days!

6.Show off your new mani!

(Just remember to let it dry so you don't smudge it!! )

I hop you liked this little tutorial - leave requests if you want me to do a specific design and if you do a recreation leave it below!

Small Lush haul

These are a few Lush items that I have accumulated since Christmas; I did have bath bombs but used them before blogging them! :/ Two of them are potted products, the other is the magic wand bubble bar thingumabob.

The first item is the 'no drought' dry shampoo. Unlike most dry shampoos, the Lush version is a loose powder. I don't really know whether I prefer this to aerosol products; this is useful to sprinkle onto a brush, onto your hand or even directly onto your hair - this is useful because you can easily control the amount you use. It also goes a long way - I think this will last me years!! ( that may be a slight exaggeration!)

The only thing this lacks, is that with an aerosol dry shampoo, you can spray it under your hair and in segments, you can also create volume. You really do either of those things with this unfortunately.

The next product is the 'Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter', the first thing I like about this product is the scent. not everybody may like it but I think it's amazing. It is sort of a lemongrass scent - the first time I used I kept thinking that somebody had been to curry house!

This is really moisturising to your cuticles and nails, the consistency is a lot thicker than that of other cuticle creams I have tried before. It leaves your fingers feeling really moisturised and your cuticles softer and more supple.

*

The final item I've picked up is the Magic Wand bubble bar. This is one of the bars on a stick which you wave around your bath (instead of running under a tap) to create bubbles. The scent is similar to - I think it actually is - snow fairy. Snow fairy is a really sweet scent, I love it, but for some people it might be a bit too sweet.
