Sadly not a good product for me. The smell, although not particularly strong on its own became very overpowering when I used it in the bath, and made me feel nauseous. It exfoliates well and made my skin nice and smooth, but even with storing the bar in a Lush tin it went mouldy! Going back to You Snap the Whip, which is gorgeous :)

I watched this one due to it being listed on the “Undead Films” zombie reference list, however there are not actually any zombies in this film! Definitely more along the lines of ghosts/haunting, or maybe vampires as there is a bit of bloodplay in there. Sadly, no flesh-eating freaks though. The film itself is weakly scripted and generally bizarre, but not all that bad if you like hammy old horrors with writhing naked ladies and creepy old men.

I really enjoyed watching this, because as others have mentioned it is just a treat to watch the amazing shots that have been created for this movie. Also it stars Cillian Murphy, who I find to be an utterly convincing actor, and pretty tasty eye candy to boot.

Now comes the spoiler!!

Although I was pleased that the film had a happy ending as it justified the struggle and deaths of the crew members, I had sort of already imagined the ending in my head, whereby Capa (Murphy) delivers the payload, and just floats in his golden space suit slowly and elegantly into the burning surface of the sun. The end. Without confirmation of whether the payload did or didn’t re-start the sun. As it happens Capa’s final scene is beautiful, but I felt it was weakened by ending up back on Earth. Definitely worth a watch though!

I agree with calypte’s comments, this stuff smells tasty! It’s a really thick consistency which is a little hard to spread to start with. I found it to be like a warming mask as my skin heated up quite a lot after initially applying, then settled for the rest of the time I left the mask on. It softened my skin nicely and was not too oily. I think the only problem was the chunks of cherry, they were massive and kept dropping off my face everywhere!

I marked this as worth consuming, because if you have the time and inclination this is a really great product. Personally however, I am quite lazy and thought this was a lot of effort to go through for a result that doesn’t last too long (it’s recommended you should reapply every 6 weeks as the colour will fade).

First off you have to grate the blocks up and boil them up in a pan with some water (note, this smells BAD). Once the mixture is smooth you apply it all over your hair – this is a very messy process! The mixture is not very thick and will drip all over the place, luckily I was prepared and had newspaper covering my bathroom floor and sink. The development time ranges from about 2-6 hours I believe. I decided to leave it on overnight as I couldn’t be doing with dedicating an entire day to my hair. I wrapped the lot up in clingfilm and then put a towel over the top of it, had a good night’s kip and washed it out the next morning.

The colour was a very orange toned auburn, due to the heat from clingfilm/towel-head combo and seemed quite vibrant to begin with. Sadly it did fade quite quickly, and there are lots of factors that can wear the colour down, such as using hair products with citrus extracts. I have heard people remark on how soft their hair is after using henna, but I didn’t feel any difference in mine. I was happy with the look but wouldn’t bother doing it all again.

This was quite a disappointing product, the consistency was rubbery and not at all easy to cleanse with. The scent was not fresh lemon, it was very synthetic and harsh (I was expecting something a bit more like Lemony Flutter which is lovely!). I actually ended up binning half of it and will stick to the other buttercreams or shower jellies.

I was looking foward to trying this as there was a lot of hype online and in the forums. It didn’t seem to be very moisturising or do anything for my skin, this is more of a fun treaty bath product. The fizzing and popping candy was great, like fireworks going off! (Although obviously safer!) The smell was nice and sweet although not pink & sugary like a lot of the Lush ranges. But yeah the yellow bath water was icky, not a good look.

This was a nice, soft fruity bomb and had some mega fizz! I liked the little stars they were fun to play with although a little scratchy and got stuck in my hair :/

Was worth a go but not one I’d go to as first choice.

I tried this last night and was really disappointed. The smell was quite nice but not strong at all, and when it dissolved the water turned a nasty murky yellow-brown colour and left little gritty bits at the bottom of the bath. Lucky for me there are plenty of other yummy Lush products that I do like to use!

This is a perky little bubble bar, very fresh natural scents. Although I did think it smelled like Sambuca! I didn’t find it to be as bubbly as some of the other bars I used, they mostly faded away before I had finished bathing (maybe I should have used more of the bar?). Pleased to see another charitable product from Lush and approve of Lush supporting the ban on fox hunting. Glad that I can help in such an easy and enjoyable way :)
