Lush Fresh Face Mask - BB Seaweed Review

This post has been in my draft for months, sorry for being so late. I have been so busy with school work that I haven't really had time to post anything:(

I got sample of this when my mum was buying some hair stuff for her friend
From Lush website:
"For softening, cooling and reducing redness.
Honey, seaweed and aloe vera to soften and soothe. Olive oil to moisturise.  Fresh rose petals and rose absolute to reduce redness. Rosemary oil to regenerate the skin. All of this is held together with kaolin, ground almonds and millet flakes – so when you wash this off you are also gently exfoliating and removing dead skin"



you can see from the texture that there are big chunks of seaweed which at least proves that there really is seaweed in the mask. However it is the big chunks of seaweed that makes applying this mask a hassle, they keep falling off your face! 
I wouldn't say I notice much difference from this mask but then I only used it twice, but if you have sensitive skin you might want to give it a go. I do prefer Love Lettuce for a mask that's for all different skin types it's just a lot easier to apply!

November 2012 Non Beauty Favourites

Christmas is so near yet some how I still don't really feel the Christmas spirit yet :(

I don't have any beauty favourites this month because there hasn't been really something I have really liked so lets proceed to the non beauty favourites of the month

(oh yeah sorry again for the lack of posts, school has been so busy!)

Songs 

TVXQ - Humanoids 
This is another epic song from TVXQ with their once again amazing dance moves

Shinhwa - Venus
I have been obsessed with the legend this month after watching their show Shinhwa Broadcast 

Sistar- Alone
This was one of my favourite song  earlier on this year and I have fallen in love with it once again. Love Sistar they have become one of my favourite girl groups over this year and congrats on the MAMA award

Rainbow - A
I remember listening to this when it first came out but didn't really like it but recently I have listened to it again and have really like it. The dance to this was apparently too sexy so it got banned but tbh compared to some western mvs this is nothing but koreans are stricter when it comes to these things.
 I do think that they are so underrated and don't really understand why.  They are pretty, good singers/rappers and have catchy songs they deserve more popularity. I can't wait til their next comeback

Shows

Shinhwa Broadcast
This show is absolutely hilarious. I haven't laughed so mush in a long time.
I watched the show because of super junior and it has made me fall in love with Shinhwa. I am currently on episode 7 which is the kids channel - it is so cute.
Episode 6 was upsetting at the end when my favourite Hyesung hurt himself :( 

I recommend this to my Korean friend and she has also been obsessed with the show. 
This is definitely one of the funniest shows I have ever watched - even if you don't know Shinhwa I bet you will still find them funny

Lush Love Lettuce Face Mask Review

This post is on popular lush fresh face mask - Love Lettuce
I have only used this twice because I had a sample of this. 

LOVE LETTUCE £5.95/75g

Love Lettuce is Vegetarian Approved

Fresh Face Masks


Lettuce show you the way to lovely skin
This mask is a seaweed gel with exfoliating granules through it. 
Ideal for those who want to clear away dead skin and brighten the face, whilst also gently treating it to softening ingredients.


Quantitative Ingredients (from Lush website)

Agar Agar Gel, Kaolin, Honey, Fullers Earth, Glycerine, Almond Oil, Ground Almond Shells, Ground Almonds, Lavender Oil, Chlorophyllin, *Geraniol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Perfume
*occurs naturally in essential oils

However even though this mask is called Love Lettuce it actually contains no lettuce. 


in real life the colour is more green, the camera has washed it out.
Even though it doesn't actually have lettuce it surely looks like it does.
the mask smells like lavender, which is not surprising seeing that it is one of the ingredients, the scent is not overwhelming like most lavender scents but refreshing.  

What do I think?
After only 2 uses of this mask I have found my skin to feel softer, this mask is suitable for all skin types so everyone can try it out, however apart from that it didn't really do much. 

Will I buy the full size?
Might do but I want to try the other Lush masks before I buy ones I've before. 

Have you tried this before? What do you think

October 2012 Favourites

Sorry for the lack of posts, school has been so busy and its a really important year for me this year:(
I have a lot of posts in my drafts but just haven't gone round to finishing them off yet.

So here are this months favourites :) 

I will write review for the mask and the eye makeup remover 

from left to right: Garnier 2 in 1 makeup remover, lush mask of magnaminty and sex and city lust eau de parfum 

this has a fruity scent to it - i love it and the bottle is so pretty 

this is the onlt lush mask that you can keep out of the fridge and have a shelf life of more than 1 month.
it smells like mint ice cream and can be used face and back

though it says no perfume there is a floral scent to it, it is the best eye makeup remover i have used so far. Can also be used for removing face makeup

now on to the other favourites

TV - Rooftop Prince
I have finally finished watching this, i kept on going back to this after finishing other stuff. It can be happy one moment and sad the next. So emotional! definitely one of the best kdramas this year and best ever!
the following clip are definitely one of my most memorable scene from the drama

Songs

they are back! love this song and dance
<3 yunho


Ailee - I will show you

September 2012 Favourites

Its been a while since the last time I wrote a proper post, I do apolgise for the lack of posts recently, school has been so busy, it's work work work everyday!

I haven't been wearing makeup that much this month but here are my favourites for the one and only September  2012

They are Collection 2000 lasting colour gel eyeliner in black, Maybelline Colour Tattoo in On and On Bronze and Vaseline in Aloe Vera


trying some new photo techniques!

Vaseline Lip Therapy with Aloe Vera 20g - £1.99
As you can see this is still the whole packaging, I have had this for ages and have only recently hit pan.
I really do think that every girl should have some kind of lip balm or vaseline in the bag it really does make a difference to those chapped lips especially in the winter or just to make your lips a bit more mosturised. Vaseline is also a very multi- function product, as well as your lips you can put use it for cuticle care, lash care or eve to remove makeup  - it works better than some cheap makeup remover!
This one smells amazing, I absolutely hate the smell of the original one. its disgusting so I picked this up, when I finish this I want to try either rosy lips or cocoa butter. 

Maybelline Eye Studio Colour Tattoo24 hour Cream Gel Shadow in On and On Bronze - £4.99
I absolutely love this! I use it as eyeshadow base and makes them pop and last a lot longer plus you don't need much.
For full review click here 

Collection 2000 lasting colour gel eyeliner in black - £4.99 
I haven't tried any other gel liners to compare it with but if I'm wearing makeup I'll be wearing this.
just a word of warning you will need your own liner brush, the one included is rubbish.

Now onto my other non-beauty favourites of month

Book - The Hunger Games
I have finally finished reading this book. It took me a long time to finish not because it wasn't good its just that I'm a really slow reader. Now I need to read the remaining 2 books

Songs 

T-ara Sexy Love

They are back yay! but then i do agree they have made this comeback a bit quick they should of waited a year for things to calm down. I mean the Nickchun scandal happened before the T-ara one and now T-ara are back just after one month and khun is still in hiding and might not be able to participant in their upcoming concert which is quite upsetting :(

Anyways I  LOVE this song it's so addictive but then all T-ara songs are addictive
there are 3 versions of the video and I'll link all of them below.
T-ara hwaiting! plus loving the robot dance. Shame SimonandMartina didn't review this :( 

dance ver.

robot dance ver. this is basically same as dance ver. just shorter and some different shots

drama ver, this has lots of eunjung yay!
