    sjprmc01 - Ooh exciting! but what happens at a Lush party?
    x

    Well there's 3 diff kinds of party. A beauty one (which Is for older people) a happy hour one and a fun and games one

    Happy hour I think you get to play about with the products and stuff I'm not sure

    The fun and games includes things like turning their scarves into 'clothes' and having a 'fashion show' and stuff and she has opted to make a product too you can make from a few choices of bath bomb or the comforter bubble bar. She has the comforter.

    Snowman ballisitc WMBA

    Blue skies and fluffy white cloud bubble bar WBA favourite scent

    BS Soya milk powder WNBA this has been discontinued for a while

    Ritual happy buddha shower gel WNBA hated it, I found that I wasted alot as it came out do quickly and my skin did not like it but it was great for shaving legs

    Sweetie pie shower jelly WNBA prefer other scents

    NS sugar something or other body butter WNBA this was a cross between a massage bar and a body butter far too thick for warmer weather.

    Close to you massage bar WNBA still have 2 more

    Yves rocher nettle shampoo WNBA did not like it and it seemed to irritate my scalp

    pantene hair conditioner WMBA nothing special

    Elemis pro radiance cream cleanser WNBA I did like it but prefered their balm

    Lush fresh farmacy WBA but have alot of work to do if I am going to need to buy anymore

    Simple eye make up remover WDNBA hated it, did not do as it said and did not remove waterproof mascara, chocolate teapot sorings to mind.

    Redermic R face cream WBA I did like it and it has lasted me 6 months using it a couple of times a week.


    Lacura hydraluronic gel 30ml WBA I did like it especially since it only cost me 99p.

    cotton wool pads WBA

    now the naughty chair list
    INS

    5 lancome GWP

    Joico K-pak deep penetrating reconstructor 150ml

    Joice K pak revitaluxe 50ml

    Murrad cleansing wipes

    Murad Essential C cleanser 200ml Free with above purchase

    10 sachets of essential c day moistiriser (it was meant to be a 10ml
    sample bottle so count grow 9 more than expected) again free with above

    Murad intensive c radiance peel 5 ml free with above

    Murrad advance active radiance serum 10 ml free with the above

    2 X elemis pro collagen marine cream 15ml

    2 X L'occitane milk concentrate body lotion 50 ml

    2 X Dr organics Morrocan hair oil stuff (again with beauty box, probalby have enough to last me a very long time but in my head I do always think I need more)

    7 X bathos bubble bars ( I of couse needed more as I only have 9 left and buying 7 more seemed such a great idea, I think I own about 65 bubble bars so I am quiet convinced I need more)


    I have 1 more order due in next week. I am not worried though as I have cellotaped the shopping pixies to the naughty step too so they should hopefully see the error of their ways soon I hope.

    Happy Sunday! Hope you are all enjoying. I'm writing uni assignment but at least I am sitting with the french doors wide open and off to a BBQ later - :beer:

    Someone posted this on my FB today. I love pampering and potions and lotions, but the simple truth in this is thought provoking!

    Ventured to another thread yesterday :eek: OMG I'll not be rushing back there again. What happened to be nice to other posters? :o

    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

    I hope that everyone is having a lovely sunny Sunday. Lots of washing blowing on the line, :( start to the day, I found "our" juvenile Blackbird chick dead by the back door with a broken neck, it is not an area that usually gets bird traffic, so was surprised that it had flown into the glass door panel there, but we do have a Sparrowhawk which regularly chases the birds up in the close here.

    Back on topic some more UU's to declare

    15ml GWP E Arden SPF 15 moisture cream. MBA suits my skin, but usually use separate moisturiser and spf.
    5ml GWP No7 P&P Serum.
    4.5ml GWP No7 Lash 360 mascara, brush too chunky for me.

    Hello all.
    If not sure who it was (sorry) but someone mentioned that they clean their nail polish bottles after use to prevent air getting in.

    How do you do this?

    Thanks ever so much :)

    Me I think:D

    Being careful not to smudge newly painted nails:( use a cotton pad or tissue to wipe very carefully around the screw thread and top of the bottle, removing all polish from these areas means the top fastens tight, little air gets in and the polish should keep for ages, I have some 11/12 years + and they are still fine. HTH:D

    ETA - should say pad or tissue soaked in remover!
