Benefit Velvet Eyeshadow-Like What You Sea?

Product Information: Benefit Velvet Eyeshadow in Like What You Sea?, a misty blue shade, glides on light as a feather for a fabulous finish that looks gorgeous on everyone! Use as a base shadow, for contouring or highlighting – the uses are endless! Glide Benefit Velvet Eyeshadow in Like What You Sea? on bare lids for a dose of sheer, velvety colour or layer over creaseless cream shadows for even richer colour.

Ah, highlighting? I’m not too sure about that as it has a blue undertone but it is a good product for eyes. It leaves a silver glitter finish. Suitable for night outs rather than days, £13.50 for 3g (lookfantastic.com) pricey huh? Getting them from E-bay might save you few quid.

Product Review: Lush Bubble Bar ‘The Comforter’

Product Review

Lush Bubble Bar ‘The Comforter’

Product Information: This fruity bubble bar gives the feeling of being hugged by a jolly blackcurrant. When life is getting you down, crumble. The Comforter under hot, running water for purple water and creamy bubbles. The warm aroma of cassis absolute is relaxing so relaxing that you'll go to bed feeling happier and the world will seem brighter the next day.

The bar was massive and smelt just like blackcurrants. I get about 2-3 baths out of it, it’s only £3.99 and well worth the money (LUSH). Crumbles well in the tub and the water turns pink and bubbly. Skin feels soft and the smell lingers after bath aswell. My experience can be summed up as ‘having a bath in a tub full of ribena’.
