#lushshowcase

One of my favourite steps today in the #ABNewYearStashChallenge which is wash off masks! I usually Mask everyday whether it’s a quick mask in the shower, or my weekend home spa days where I might use up to three masks! I’ve got a mix of wash off masks, from the exfoliating to the hydrating. Any brands which you love that I should be trying? . 🎭 #Lush Rudolph Jelly Mask is a great Clay Mask that smells like chocolate and dries down quickly. The Bronze Age from the #LushShowcase is a brightening mask which you apply with a brush, I look super sparkly when I wear this. #ImFrom Volcanic Mask gifted by @_tonic15 has a lovely mousse texture and dries down hard. Really does cleanse my pores and dries down hard. You can see a pic of me wearing this on the tools day on my feed. #Erborian #PateAuGinseng mask which I love for the glow it gives my skin. A real holy grail for me. #GlamGlow Masks. These slightly sting my skin when I wear them but have been the most effective clay masks I’ve tried! #MakePrem In Shower Face Pack - really convenient hydrating mask that I use in the shower. #RealFresh Green Tea and Rose Mask sent to me by @altheakorea as part of the #AltheaAngels programme. Both are gently exfoliating. I prefer the green tea version as it also helps with my redness. https://www.instagram.com/p/BsTElnenJJO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wdbso28x4jks

Scrubs, treats and peels oh my it’s the 4th day of the #abnewyearstashchallenge! As someone with acne prone skin this is a step I do at least once a week. This is one step that really does show my low buy mantra, as I’ve not topped up on my favourite scrub which is the skinfood sugar scrubs. For my face I’ve only got the #Lush Sugar Scrub now. The other two lush products are from the #LushShowcase and are the Sugar Plum Fairy naked Scrub and Aurora Borealis. These are both a little harsh so only get used on the body. The #Sulwhasoo Clarifying Mask is a favourite of mine, it is a light exfoliator and leaves my face glowing after. #TheOrdinary AHA BHA Peel is the more harsh one which I use once a week to deep clean my clogs. #iunik lime peel and #chicaychico peels are yet to be opened and are saved for when I finish my sulwhasoo. . . . . . . . . . . . #koreanbeautyproducts #rasianbeauty #abbeatthealgorithm #lushie #abcommunity #skincareroutine #skincarejunkie #ukbeautyblogger https://www.instagram.com/p/BsOWioGnYWj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hlskn0ktmqv9

It was an absolute pleasure being front and centre to hear the Incredible, intelligent, beautiful and empowering @renieddolodge 's voice! I have some footage I'll be sharing through IGTV soon so keep your eyes out 🥰 . The @lush #lushshowcase was so incredible and I have taken SO much away from the experience! I can't wait to reconnect with everyone I met and keep some of these conversations going! 🙌🏾✨♥️ (at Manchester Central Convention Complex) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoL68A5lKAL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1thqy2v1xy8xn

Winter is coming, so time for baths to be back in vogue! I spent the weekend in Manchester for the #lushshowcase ! I loved my time last year, and was excited to see what new products #Lush would be bringing us. . 🛁 It was not the best organised and this year I spent more time in queues than being able to do anything which is disappointing. But I am excited by the news that there’s a new store opening in Japan with 89 different #BathBombs! Swipe through my pics to see just a few of these exclusives, I was only able to get my hands on two of these. A trip to japan looks to be on the cards 😉. Also some fun new make up products are out, like these eye shadows in natural packaging. . 🛁 #Royalty, #BlackRose #Kitsune, #Harajuku, #Hulder are just some of the new bathbombs! Of course as it’s Christmas I have to share some #Snowfairy love as well. I’m sure you’ll be spying more lush in my routines soon. What are you looking forward to trying out or bringing back out the skincare wardrobe this winter? . : . . : : : : : : #lushie #lushaddict #ukbeautyblogger #soap https://www.instagram.com/p/BoKNklmH1TT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=q4b3ehy99rkg

day two hundred and sixty seven

Let me tell you a quick story about fate, destiny & future. . A couple of months ago I went into my local @lush store @lushstratfordcity . I was greeted by the most beautiful soul with absolutely beautiful hair and the most beautiful skin! She told me she followed my account and that she enjoyed my energy. We enjoyed each others energy and bounced off of each other (as most joyous black female encounters do - it's an energy I can't give words to). She helped me pick out 4 bath oils! (revelations, flowers barrow, floating island & furze - amazing products! Check them out if you want a calming alternative to a bath bomb). . Months after that encounter I find myself at the #lushshowcase and the person looking after me is called Rachel. It took me a minute to click but then I remembered!!! Rachel is the same sweet soul who gave me black girl energy and helped me pick out my bath oils all the those months ago! . You never know who you are meeting, why your paths have crossed or when they will cross again. Rachel got an AMAZING promotion recently 👏🏾 and has been given the opportunity to include people of colour and diversity into her work! Thank you Rachel for taking that and bringing some incredible black people together on this press trip! . I feel so emotional and elated to be a part of this experience and I don't take it lightly that we met all those months ago and IT. WAS. FATE! ♥️🙌🏾✨ (at Manchester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoGUNo0FUPd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1igzvmpjbr8tr

Megérkeztünk Manchesterbe a @lushcosmetics kiállítására! 🛁 Légy részese a #Lush forradalmának! A műanyag tiltott, a “normális” fürdés már történelem és a fürdőbombák átveszik a hatalmat 🔮 Most minden nagyobb, erőteljesebb mint valaha. A meztelen a menő 😏 @lushhungary Még több a Storyban! #Repost @lush #LushShowcase #Manchester #LushCosmetics #BathBomb (helyszín: Manchester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoEFQJOhAY7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=98f81xg02kve
