Lush and Clothing Haul
The last time I went to Lush was 2 years ago when I purchased some bath bombs and soaps. This time I went with other things in mind based on reviews and recommendations! You all know that I am a "natural" addict so fresh handmade cosmetics seem VERY appealing... I'm surprised I didn't get all of this sooner. It's just when people go on too much about a brand it makes me not want to have it... weird I know.
I am seriously SO excited to try all of my purchases... everything was very well thought out. :)
Here's what I got....
Big: I have heard so many good things about this shampoo, I seriously can't wait to use it! It has raw sea salt, seaweed and lime juice for shiny bigger volumised hair. Price £9.60.
H'Suan Wen Hua: A hair mask that you apply prior to shampooing on dry hair, leave it for 20 mins and then shampoo and condition. Price £7.39.
Veganise: Mini conditioner as I wasn't sure which one to get, one of the girls that worked there recommended this as it had lemon and seaweed in it and said it will go very well with big. Price 100g £3.40.
I also got a sample of the Retread conditioner.
Babyface is something that I knew I wanted. It's basically a makeup remover. Price £3.40 and the tin was £2.49.
I got 2 samples of facial exfoliators. I wasn't sure which one to get so hopefully one of these will be better than the other. One is Ocean salt and the other is Angels on bare skin.
I also knew that I wanted the tea tree toner based on rave reviews! Price 100g £3.10.
My skin is sensitive but dry so I opted for Celestial facial moisturiser. Price £9.96.
I also got a sample of Imperialis facial moisturiser which is for combination skin and the Vanishing cream which is for oily skin.

My mum got the Marilyn hair mask and my brother surprisingly who is anti cream got Coco lotion and Cosmetic Lad for his face. :)
I have to say all of the staff at Lush were so friendly and helpful, I really had a fantastic shopping experience.
On to the clothes!
One of my favourite places to shop is Mango. I nearly always managed to find something. I was on a hunt for a big cardigan and I found it. Yesterday I saw a girl wearing the most amazing cardigan and I kicked myself afterwards for not stopping and asking her where it was from. But, guess what? I found the exact same one in Mango!!! Result!:) Price £49.
It looks so amazing from the back, the whole cardigan actually looks stunning. I'll have to model it in a video for you! :)
This cream ruffle skirt I also had to have, it's high waisted and looks so cute on. Price £28 on sale from £42.
It has navy stripes and I plan on wearing it with navy tights, navy top and flat brown boots.
I saw this feather Hair clip from H&M and had to have it, I love the colours. Price £1.99.

That sweater reallly makes me miss the Mango we once had. It's exactly the kind of thing i'd like to throw on everyday as it's getting cooler... great shopping! xx

I have normal/combination skin and I use vanishing cream everyday its great! :)
I loved your cardigan from Mango I was like "I have to pay a visit to Mango next time..." but the price turned me off... well my birthday is coming up, so maybe... :O

I never buy nothing to me but always fell very curious, after some bad experiences I just play safe.
Can't wait to read your reviews, I really trust your taste for natural products :)
Thanks for the post (=
and I really love the hair piece it's so beautiful =)
@Natalya no just this one colour at the moment.. x
xoxo
Angels on bare skin
Babyface
Tea tree toner
Would LOVE it if you did reviews on those three!
AHH can't get over the Cardigan! lol
Xoxo
I like Paradise Regained moisturizer, but it's maybe best for dry skin. I need it during winter time.
Oh and I love that feather clip!
Nice haul! can't wait for your Lush review! xoxo
I got a sample of Big and it did nothing for me but I love the shampoo bars. Jumping Juniper is great for greasy hair.
I'd love for you to review Ocean Salt as I've heard so many good things about it.
I lovee the skirt, so pretty!
I've just started to use Lush and I love it! Can't wait to try the Big shampoo!!
Let us know how you like the veganise conditioner. I got a sample of it once and it was nice, but 2 uses wasn't really enough to see if it worked..
