So I'll admit it. I've become a "lushie" and I have no regrets. I'm actually in love. So I thought I would do a little haul on the things I've bought over the past month, hope you enjoy!

Phoenix Rising

I've already done a post on this, so I'm only gonna skim over it. This is a really nice bath bomb, and smells very cinnamony, and leaves a little dusting of gold shimmer in a purple bath, which I loved.





Unicorn Horn

I've used about half of this, and it's just the best. I am obsessed with unicorns and I just had to have this, and my lovely friend bought this for me (if you're reading this, thank you Robyn!). This smells very strongly of lavender, and the bath is a pale colour, and full of bubbles (I had lots of fun making bubble beards). I'm just really sad that this is only a valentines product, they need to make this a regular, although I did see it in the shop, slightly more pastel-ised and minus the candy stars, so here's to hoping.





Rose Bombshell

This is a mothers day product and I used the other night and I was so surprised when it started dissolving and out popped individual rose petals, which was amazing. I wasn't too impressed with the colour as it just stayed in one side of my bath and I had to swish it a bit, unlike with the Phoenix Rising which dispersed the colour all over, but it smells amazing and I definitely need a couple more before they sell out!







Twilight

I am yet to use this one (and the ones following) because they only arrived Monday! Out of the ones I ordered, this is definitely the one I am looking forward to using the most, but can someone please tell me what it smells like? It reminds me of something but I can't quite think what and it's driving me mad.



Sex Bomb

I seem to be going for pink, white or purple bath bombs oh dear. But this I'm unsure about. I put it in my order because I've seen quite a few people get it, but I think it smells weird. Whenever I smell it, it smells gorgeous, but then it has a weird after smell. I guess I'll have to wait until I use it but I hope it smells nicer.




Dragons Egg

This is definitely the second most exciting bath bomb I ordered, and it smells so beautiful, it's a very strong citrus which I normally don't like, but with this I love it. I'm also interested to see how the spots of colour in this turn out when it's in the water.



Space Girl

I literally just ordered this because I see I everywhere and I want to see what the hype is. It smells like gummy sweets, which makes it perfect for me already, but I am rather excited to try it and see what it's all about.



Rose Bubble Bar

This is another Mothers Day product. I went in the day after I placed my order, just for a "browse" and saw this and the Rose Bombshell, and thought "but they weren't on the website" and so I just got them. This smells really nice, but a different kind of rose smell to the bath bomb (I can't quite explain it, it's stronger in my opinion) but I am excited to see if I end up with glitter in my bubble bath!



Oatifix

And last, but not least, I ordered Oatifix, which is a face mask. I got this because every face mask I use to exfoliate that comes out of a packet makes my face drier. But I used this the other day, and my skin had no dry patches the next day, it was a miracle! And even though it resembles sick on my face, I want to eat it whenever I smell it...

So yesterday when I was at college, I found out that Better Call Saul (BCS because I'm lazy) was finally out, and I couldn't wait to get home and watch it. Although I'm only half way s5 of Breaking Bad, I figured that seeing as BCS is set before Walt's time, it wouldn't matter too much if I watched it at the same time.
I have to say, even though there's only been too episodes released, I'm really impressed. Originally I was worried, and many shows that produce spin offs fail (Angel, anyone?), but just two episodes in and BCS has gripped me already, especially with the surprise guest as well as the introduction of Mike! Saul is possibly my new favourite, and there's the right air of desperation about his character in this series that just makes me want to give him a hug and make things better. I also loved the beginning of the first episode in black and white (apparently this will be explained once I've finished s5???).
The ending of the first episode had me itching for the next, and the idea of waiting a day seemed too much, but now I have to wait a week I'm not entirely sure what I'm gonna do, but I'm so excited to see how his story pans out. 5 stars from me for definite!

So finally (3 months later) I am uploading my London Comic Con post!
I went for the 3 days with a my friends Kirsty, Sam and Billy, and we stayed in an apartment in Ilford, which was pretty amazing considering how cheap it was. Well, cheap for London. The first day was just a browsing day for me because I didn't want to spend all my money in one go, which I would have done, given the chance. Even though it was only day one, there were some pretty cool Cosplays, including a male Harley Quinn, which I loved, and we got free Pikachu hats! And on the evening, Billy and I found a secret 33rd floor in the apartment block we were in, and the views were incredible.



























Day 1 Outfit:

Hat - Hype
Kimono - H&M
Top - H&M
Skirt - Select
Socks - Primark
Shoes - Primark


Day 2 was the big day as the four of us were Cosplaying. Sam went as L and Kirsty as Misa from Death Note, Billy went as "Alex" in Wonderland, and I went as a female Mad Hatter. There were so many amazing Cosplays, and I also got asked for photos with people, which was insane. We also saw a horse man in the window of a near by hotel which was funny, and in the afternoon, there were some amazing views on the water. And to top it off, we classily enjoyed wine glasses filled with milkshake back at the apartment.
























My female version of Johnny Depp's Mad Hatter, from Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland (maybe I'll do a make up tutorial?? I don't know, it was pretty easy)


Also, check out the amazing Jeff Michalik, a super talented artist based in Camden, London but he regularly goes to the Cons. If you ever get the chance, go check out his work, it's amazing!

On the third and final day I think we were all a bit tired, so we did a bit of shopping and then prepared for the trip home (which also included visiting our friend at uni). The three days were truly amazing, and it is definitely something I would recommend to anyone who loves this kind of stuff, and I can't wait until Birmingham Comic Con in March!







Day 3 Outfit:

Top - H&M
Vest (underneath) - Primark
Skirt - H&M
Shoes - Same as the first day

Also, check out Roxie Sweetheart which is where I got this amazing hair bow from, because really, I will never have enough unicorn in my life.



I am so excited for all the future Comic Cons I am going to attend, and to create all the Cosplay ideas I have.

Thanks for reading
