Let's Get Down & Gritty! | Lush Face & Body Scrubs 2022

 Hey everyone! 

Welcome to a brand new blog post! I recently grabbed the three new scrubs from Lush and I thought that today I would talk to you all about it. 

Bright & Beautiful

Who doesn’t want their skin to look all things bright and beautiful? This scrub contains Vitamin C Powder, Grapefruit Oil, Clove Bud Oil, Rose Absolute, Champaca Absolute, Ylang Ylang Oil and Powdered Charcoal. This scrub can be used both without water for a grittier scrub, or with water for a softer feel. It’s entirely up to you. I went for the grittier feel and I really enjoyed the texture and scent of this scrub. This product contains 10% Vitamin C and Lush state that it may tingle but for me it didn’t. I really like this for when I want a good deep scrub but I want something to wake me up at the same time. Priced at £ 14.

Co-Mingle Body Scrub 

You know it’s been a good night out when you’ve had a good co-mingle… This scrub contains Cypress Leaf Infusion, Bamboo Stem Extract, Tagus Nit Powder, Almond Oil, Vanilla Pod Infusion, Lavender Oil, Goji Berry Juice, Carrageenan Extract and Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter. I love the concept of this. A 3 in 1 product which I could use when my spoons are low. Sounds amazing! However the scent could do with being changed. I get the reasoning on making this scent  mellow but I would’ve loved it if it was in a citrus scent or something that isn’t Lavender centric. The scrub itself is amazing and does its job of scrubbing, cleansing and moisturising and will definitely be used when I want something quick and simple. My dry rough skin loved this. Priced at £18.

Happy Skin Enzymic Face Exfoliator

Let’s scrub until we’re happy. This scrub contains Shea Butter, Sesame Seed, Vanilla and Tonka Absolutes, Fresh Pineapple and Jackfruit Juices, Bamboo Stem Extract and Tagua Nut Powder. To start off with, when me and Luke smelt this, we both agreed that it smells of Cherry Yoghurt. Sounds weird I know but trust me. I love the texture of this product as it’s a little bit more creamier than the others which I really like when it comes to cleansers and scrubs. I love Pineapple so when I saw that this contained Pineapple, I was excited as my skin seems to love Pineapple. Definitely one that I whack on in a morning and know that it’ll do good for my skin without worrying about leaving it on for a certain amount of time or scrubbing in so much. Just a good all rounder. Priced at £14.

Sniffing The Scent Of Baking | Library Of Fragrance Review

Hey!

Welcome to another blog post! The Library Of Fragrance kindly sent me some fragrances to sniff and try out so I thought that I would tell you what I thought of them.

The Library Of Fragrance originate from New York City and started out as a company within 1995. Tje company first released the scents Dirt, Grass and Tomato which are still enjoyed today by customers. They then released fragrances such as Gin and Tonic, Sex On The Beach and Paperback. They are sold via their website which you can check out via clicking here or Boots (within the UK) so if you want to check out some of the scents then I urge you to go to your local Boots!


The team from The Library Of Fragrance sent me three lovely scents to review, The fragrances that I got sent were Pina Colada, Pumpkin Pie and Cinnamon Bun.

Pina Colada

Do you like Pina Coladas? Do you like getting caught in the rain? This fragrance is the epitome of the song and definitely smells of Pina Colada! This fragrance contains Pineapple Juice, Coconut Cream and Light Rum which makes an amazing cocktail for the skin. It is a very strong fragrance but I would prefer a strong fragrance that you only need to spray twice instead of a weak fragrance that you'd have to spray 5 times to get the same strength as the 2. It's a great scent to wear within Summer or for when you going out for drinks. The only problem with this scent is that it makes you want a Pina Colada quite badly! I would give this a 9.5/10 but if you don't like Pineapple or Coconut then it might not be for you!


Pumpkin Pie

This is such an Autumnal scent. If you love Pumpkin Spice Latte's or Pumpkin Pie then you will definitely love this scent! This fragrance mainly consists of Pumpkin, Sugar, Cinnamon, Ginger and Cloves, I love all things Pumpkin and spice so this fragrance is a winner in my eyes, This would be a great fragrance to wear on a coffee date and as Thanksgiving is on Thursday, its a great time to buy it! I would give this a 9.5/10 again but if you're not a big fan of Pumpkin Spiced things then it's definitely not for you but there is many other fragrances on tbeir website so have a look and hopefully you'll find something that you love!


Cinnamon Bun

If you love baking then you will love this scent! This fragrance is sweet which evokes the smell of baking but is spicy from the Cinnamon which I think is such a good combination. I love anything Cinnamon so this fragrance is a winner in my opinion. It's just so nice! I think that this would be the ultimate fragrance to wear on Christmas Day! I would give this a 9.6/10 but if you hate Cinnamon then this isn't the fragrance for you.


There's my thoughts on the three scents that I was sent, What do you think of them? Have you ever tried any Library Of Fragrance scents? Let me know down below.

I hope that you have enkoyed this beauty based blogger. Don't forget to go and give them a whiff when you're next in Boots.Come back next time for another post!

Thanks!
