I walked into Lush for the first time, and to be sure it was a little overwhelming. The first thing you notice will be the smells that attack your nasal passages. The second will probably be the feast of epic colors and shapes and the shear amount of products for your eyes. Once you adjust to that, you can explore. And you can be sure the friendly staff will say hello. In fact I haven’t had better service for quite some time while shopping. Now they have a lot of cool stuff at Lush, but I want to rave about the Bath Bombs. Okay, so the big seller is Big Blue. I didn’t grab it, but the lady was telling me how it turns your bath into a blue sea soak and I kind of like the idea of something other then my hair turning my bath different colors. The three Bath Bombs I grabbed were Golden Slumbers, Twilight, and Sex Bomb. The first two are very relaxing. Golden Slumbers is a lavender based bomb that is supposed to help put you at ease and sleep. I found it very relaxing and definitely was a comforting treat after a long day of work. Twilight is also a lavender infused bomb mixed with ylang ylang. When it hits the warm water it swirls pink and purple leaving you in a luxurious spa like environment in your own bathroom. I haven’t tried the Sex Bomb yet, but it smells so good I look forward to the night I do. There are Bath Bombs to detoxify, condition your skin, wake up your senses, and basically keep you in bath heaven for months. If you are like me and do enjoy a good bath, I highly recommend the Bath Bombs, and hey there is definitely a scent for everyone.
Bath Bombs in all there variety are available for $3.95 to $6.95 at Lush stores worldwide and online at www.lushusa.com.

This season will have a few experimental color choices to play with, but one look that never dies is the red lip. Now personally I am more of a gloss girl myself, so when I got to try the super pigmented Carousel Gloss by Lime Crime I was ecstatic. Finally a lip gloss with some staying power! Carousel Gloss comes in a variety of shades but my top three choices currently are Candy Apple, Present, and Cherry On Top. And let’s not forget the cruelty free pledge, that’s right, they are cruelty free and most of the products are vegan too! Candy Apple is a deep red, it’s perfect for pairing with a form-fitting black dress for that date night you’ve been planning. The creamy berry coloring of Present is a shade that reminds me of my lace and velvet pieces, paired with some web stockings and an ankh necklace. Oh so goth. And last but not least is Cherry on Top, because damn it sometimes you just want to wear your favorite band tees and ripped jeans, or maybe go the pin up route and pair with a vintage print bikini and bandana. Whatever your style preference Lime Crime has you covered.
Carousel Gloss by Lime Crime is available online for $16.99 at www.limecrimemakeup.com.
