It's Soapy & Glorious..

Soap & Glory are by far one of the most popular beauty brands right now. With their quirky packaging, names and super-yummy scents, whats not to love?! Whether you fancy smelling like a zesty lemon pie or a human bubble gum, you'll end up filling your bathroom cabinets with the stuff! 

I've decided to review a few of my all time favorite products from Soap & Glory, as you can't be missing out on these wonderful treats for your skin and hair! There are honestly hundreds of products now available at +Boots UK+Superdrug  and other leading health and beauty stores, so you can thank me later when you've stocked up!


Scrub Of Your Life 
 One of the best body scrubs you'll find right now. The thick scrub glides onto your skin and gently exfoliates the skin in minutes. The scrub creates a foamy like texture against the skin. I love that after you've rinsed the product off, you are still left with a super soft coating to your skin which then also acts as a moisturizer. Could you seriously ask for more? No lie, this is my fave body scrub I've ever bought and I can't live without it! 
10/10!!

Glad Hair Day
 A glorious shampoo that leaves you feeling fresh as a daisy! The Ultra-Shine Shampoo is perfect for all hair types with a fruity fragrance! Rated five star by leading beauty mags, it's no joke that this everyday shampoo is worth every penny! One great thing about this shampoo is if your hair is a little greasy, you can re-apply without having to worry about stripping your hair of its natural oils or going dry. Just massage a small amount onto the hands. A little goes a long way! 
7/10!

Clean On Me 
Creamy moisture shower gel that hydrates the skin with every use. A great option if you are like me and go mad with shower gel until your whole body is just a giant bubble. Add a handful of Clean On Me onto damp skin and watch it turn into a thick, luxurious lather in seconds. The smell stays on your skin once your dry and a little travel bottle is great to take on holiday!  
8/10! 


Hand Food 
Hand Food is by far one of the best hand lotions I've ever used. I even have a little travel size one that's great to pop in your handbag whilst you're on-the-go! The floral and soapy smell makes your hands feel instantly refreshed and leaves your skin super-soft and supple. Perfect if you job involves hands-on tasks or computer work. 
8/10!

The Righteous Butter 
Mmmmmmm! So good I could eat it! (But please don't!). The Righteous butter is a flippin' savior if you are prone to dry skin! I smother myself in this once I've had a bath or a shower. The butter can be applied on damp skin or dry skin, so take your pick! I wake up the next morning and my skin feels revitalized and brand new. I recommend using this straight after you've had a bath or shower for the best results. It won't disappoint! 
9/10!

Orangeasm Body Wash
The scent this gives off is just Orgasmic. I'm guessing that's what made them name this body wash Orangeasm. Literally, I can't explain how fruit and tropical this product is. I smother myself in this when I'm in the shower and even bought a separate bottle to keep at my boyfriends. Yes, it's that amazing! I recommend this body wash being put at the top of your to-buy lists when you next need essentials for the bathroom! The formula is a mixture of Ginseng, Pink Pepper-berry, Green Mandarin, Sicilian Lemon and Orange peel oils..about as Zesty as it gets!
10/10!!

Livin' The Lush Life..

I don't know about you, but I'm a sucker for Lush Cosmetics. Literally any given chance, I'll be scooting into a Lush store and checking out new bath bombs, bath oils and hair products. I love the quirky designs, use of pigments and how beautiful a bath looks after dropping a fresh new bath bomb in the tub!

After taking a trip to Lush in Chelmsford today, I snapped up a few images and thought I'd share some of my favorite products and showcase some of the latest items available right now..

Winter Berry Beauty

With Autumn in full swing and Winter just around the corner, it's time for a make-up makeover. Fresh porcelain skin, smokey eyes and statement berry lipstick is back. 

November is one of my favourite months to give myself a little make-up restyle, so below I have gathered some of my favourite make up looks, favourite lipsticks and celebrity styles all in one little berry inspired post...



Get Yourself A Berry Lipstick
NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Monte Carlo - £5.50 - Superdrug - Shop Here
To complete any make up look, a berry hue lipstick is the ultimate statement this season. My favourite lippy for this look has got to be Monte Carlo by NYX Cosmetics. The smooth texture glides on beautifully and lasts longer than your average product. Team with smokey brown eyes for a bold and daring look in seconds.




Perfect Your Smokey Eye Routine
Too Faced Natural Smokey Eye Kit - £32 - Debenhams - Shop Here
Smokey eyes add instant glamour and oozes femininity. The best smokey eye for this season is made up of a variety of browns, golds, deep chocolate hues and classic pink tones. The Too Faced Natural Smokey Eye Kit is perfect. The product is a saint as it helps you create your chosen look that can be updated from a natural day smokey eye to a high fashion look with the help of a seriously well thought out pallette.



Opt For A Matte Nail Varnish
Barry M Matte Nail Paint - £3.99 - Boots - Shop Here 
 Barry M is by far one of the best brands to look at if you're after specific colours and shades. The Barry M paint lasts forever and the latest matte range has been updated with this beautiful colour called 'Burgundy Crush'. The berry hues are perfect against any skin done, from pale porcelain to a dark olive. The matte effect works wonders and will complete your winter berry look with ease.
