Lush Review: Candy Mountain Bubble Bar

If any of you are Lush fanatics like me you will know how exciting the Lush Christmas range is (very sad yes I know). I managed to go into 3 different Lush stores in the space of 2 weeks and spend an extortionate amount of money each time... One of the favourite things that I picked up was the Candy Mountain bubble bar.
You simply crumble the bar into running water to create the 'glistening candy-scented bubbles'. It has a very sweet scent with mild hints of vanilla. I managed to break the bar into three pieces therefore enabling me to have 3 baths from the one bar. It created a beautiful light pink and white concoction in the bath (featuring a lot of bubbles!) which made my whole bathroom smell incredible! The scent is similar to the shower gel 'Snow Fairy' (£3.75) and you can also get a shimmer bar version called 'Snow Fairy Sparkle' (£4.95).
I would definitely recommend buying one of these as you can get 3 baths from one bar as well as making your bath smell and look incredible, as well as it being part of the limited addition collection, you need to buy it before it goes!

Cosmetic Review: Collection Lasting Perfection Foundation and Concealer

Recently I purchased the 'Lasting Perfection Ultimate Wear Foundation' from Collection because I had bought the concealer (which pretty much every make up Youtuber/ blogger raves about because of it's price and quality) around 2 months ago, yes the writing has rubbed off from the outside, but it is still an incredible concealer because of the flawless coverage but still for the low price of £4.19.

I bought the foundation to match because it was only £4 on an introductory price at Superdrug (original price £5.99) and because of the high expectations (due to the amazing concealer) I was pleasantly surprised because it did live up to my expectations. It provided amazing coverage even with a small amount but I don't know if I would agree with the 16 hour lasting ability but it does still last around 7 hours maybe 8 at a push.
The whole range has 6 colours for the foundation, 3 for the concealer and 3 for the pressed powder; I am yet to try out the pressed powder! 

Therefore for a really dewy, flawless finish to your skin I would definitely recommend this foundation and concealer duo from Collection. 






I use shades 3 warm medium for concealer and 3 cool beige for the foundation.
