Lush Day After Christmas Haul

I'm not sure why its taking me so long to post up my Christmas haul from Lush. Well here it is. I did not purchase any Christmas box sets because items in them either looked old and dried up or the items in it I wasn't too interested in. I got soaps, bath bombs, and bubble wands.


Not sure why they didn't give out regular Lush bags at this store

My purchase came to $57.79. It's still kind of pricey but I did save almost 50%. It's nice to sometimes treat yourself to something nice right? I just hope I have time to use them. Hehe...

So soaps I got:

Angles Delight

Mr. Punch


Snow Globe

Sexy Peel
Bath bombs I got:

So White Ballistic (2)
Cinder Ballistic - I was told they going to discontinue this...
Golden Wonder
Bubble wands I got:

Magic Wands
If I finally get the time I'll write a short review on how these items each turn out. :) Anyone else take advantage of the big BOGO after Christmas sale? Tell me about it.

The Body Shop Satsuma Body Butter

I received a small (1.7oz) Satsuma Body Butter for Christmas. It's been years since I've used The Body Shop products.  I am glad to have received this so I can try out their stuff again.

I believe The Body Shop is known for their body butters.  They have huge selections of different scents for different skin types.  I was told that Satsuma is one of their popular scents.  This is actually one of the scents you would smell once you walk into their shops.  Again, I was told they tend to use the Satsuma oils or sprays in their shops.  


I always loved this scent.  I was always reluctant to purchase this body butter because the smell from the container never smelt like the scent in the store. The sales lady always telling me it's the same scent but I just didn't believe them.  Until now...that I actually used it and have it on my skin...They were right.  It's the same scent.  It has a citrus scent to it.  I just love this scent.

The body butter is very moisturizing.  It's not as thick as I thought it would be since its body butter.  I've been using this product mainly one my hands and other dry parts of my body like feet and elbows.  It's a great product to use in the winter.  


This small container cost $6.  The person who got it for me left the price tag on.  That might not be the price she purchased at though since The Body Shop always has deals going on.  Like buy two get one free. I will be checking out the store the next time I stop by the malls. And I will be repurchasing this item and might even try on other items they have.  


Anyone have any Body Shop recommendations they would like to share with me?  I always love to try new things so please let me know!

Bath and Body Works Christmas Gifts Haul

It was hard shopping for my niece. She's 9 years old and has everything. When we asked what she wanted she couldn't even answer us. Kids now a days are so lucky and has everything.

Well I ended buying her a bunch of crafts items since she's so artistic. She loves to find things and transform them into other things. Like a brown box into a doll house.

I still thought I needed to get her more. So I brought her a little extra from Bath and Body works. Please note this was purchased before Christmas, before the semi-annual sale.

Well hope she likes the items I got her. I got her a bunch of Pocketbac which I know she uses and a antibacterial foaming moose which I thought was cute and fun to use. The whole purchase was $11.16. The Pocketbacs were buy 5 for $5. The foam moose was $5. The holder was $.50.

I forgot to mention. I had a coupon for a free item for a purchase of $10 or more. So I got a bottle of body lotion (coconut breeze). I was happy. A $12.50 free. A little present for myself.

I know Christmas has past but we are giving her the gifts later tonight. Hope she like them.
