Makeup Of The Day- A Touch Of Green

When doing my eye makeup I often stick with the same colours which are always neutral colours. Some times I like to change things up a bit and put a colour in my eye makeup. This time I chose green.

I have a couple of different palettes from a brand called FrontCover. The green colour that I have used underneath my eye is called Parrot and it is from their Winter 09/10 Palette and I have also used Carbon from Mac over this green, smudged into my waterline eyeliner. I have then used the colour Wedge from Mac all over my lid.

My Lush Favourites


Lush Cosmetics has been a company that I have loved for years. A friend from school got me addicted to the shop after showing me some things she had bought and been gifted at about 13 years of age. Since this point, I have been hooked not just on their regular range of products but also their seasonal products. I thought I could share with you some on my favourites, old, limited edition or new products and you may even see something you want to try!

My all time favourite out of any product has to be the Comforter bubble bar. This is one of their biggest bubble bars which means that you can get lots and lots of baths, full of bubbles out of the one bar. It has a really sweet and fruity smell to it and turns the water in the bath a pretty pink colour. I always use this when I am wanting a nice relaxing bubble bath.

Another bubble bar that is a favourite for me is the Brightside bubble bar. This is the same size as the comforter but it has a more fresh smell, more fruity and orangy than the comforter. This turns the bath water orange which is also a pretty colour. It was originally a Easter limited edition product but I think they now have it in the store permanently. 

Something else that I have to keep stocked up on is Tea Tree Water. This is a toning water that helps problematic skin as it has antibacterial properties in it. I find it great for my skin not just for when my skin is breaking out but also it is nice just to spray over the face in the summer time, especially of a night time. It helps to cool the skin and leaves you feeling really refreshed!

Another product that I use on my skin that is also a favourite of mine is the Angels on Bare Skin cleanser. It is one of the best cleansers I have ever used and it makes my skin feel so smooth and clean after using it. You should use a cleanser everyday, but lets be honest, sometimes it is easier to pick up a make up wipe or some make up remover. This is a cleanser I use as often as I can but on a more daily basis, I usually use ultrabland. It smells in my opinion disgusting, but is one of the best products Lush have to offer. Its very thick and greasy and feels quite like butter. Do not let the greasy texture fool anyone with oily skin, it is just as good for you as someone with dry skin. Your skin still needs oils and although ultrabland is very greasy, it does not leave your skin feeling greasy at all!



One last product I would like to tell you about would be their Big shampoo. It contains a lot of sea salt so has a similar affect on your hair as sea water does, it will give it volume and ultra delicious smelling hair. The smell is hard to describe, but it smells fresh and lemony, kind of salty but not really and also coconutty. It actually has extra virgin coconut oil in, to keep the hair soft and nourished.

I could go on talking about my favourite products from lush all day long but instead of telling you any more about them, I think I should just leave a link below to their website for you to check them out yourself. They are in a wide range of countries so I will be sure to leave a link to the page where you choose your country.

I would love to know if any of you have tried Lush Cosmetics and what you think if you did? Also any favourite products you might have so I can try them if I haven't already ;)
