Last - Minute Christmas Present Ideas

Hello,


This is a collection of six gift ideas to give to your friends or maybe even that one person whos really hard to buy for.


1. Handwritten Letter -

I think this is a really nice personal one if you have a strong relationship with the person you give this to. All you have to do is write down nice things about that person or reasons why they're you're friend or thanking them for anything they've helped you with in your life. You could make it more pretty by using coloured pens and stickers (maybe in they're favourite colours) or include some inside jokes or illustrate it with small doodles. Whoever you write this for will feel very special and loved but make sure you keep it special to them and original.


2. Box of treats -

Find a cute box and fill it with their favourite chocolates and sweets or makeup products. You could add in their favourite nail polish or maybe even some jewellery. You could also get them merch of their favourite band/tv show/ football team / film/ book/youtuber etc



3. Gift Voucher -

This one if good if you don't know what to by someone or you are not sure what they might already have. Just get them a gift card for their favourite shop and they can spend it on whatever they please.


4. Gift Set  -

I think its really nice to receive a box of mini little products to try out and pamper yourself with.  They do nice gift sets in Lush and Soap and Glory have had some nice ones in boots this year also beauticology in boots do some cute ones.

5. Merch -

If you know the person well you probably will know of their favourite band or tv show etc. Maybe get them something they could wear to show their support or maybe an album to watch/listen to and enjoy.

6. An Experience -

If you want to splash out on something for you both to share you could book cinema tickets, a day out in a nice place, take them shopping, take them to a concert or to see somewhere they've always wanted to go to.

I hope this post has given you some ideas for Christmas gifts this year to give to friends. Hve a good Christmas guys!!


Bye!!

Lush reviews!!!

Hello,

As you may know I love the store lush. This post is a collection of different lush product reviews.


The first product is the flowering tea bubble bar.






 
 
 
I really like the look of this product as its like a pearly shimmery colour. I also like the idea of it as its like a tea bag and the flower petals inside. When I used it in the bath it wasn't really my cup of tea (excuse the pun). It makes the water silky and the flower petals are pretty but its quite simple and there's not much colour.
 
 
The next product is the yuzu and cocoa shower gel.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
When it lathers up on your skin it makes your skin appear yellow but as soon as you've rinsed it off the colour goes. It also smells amazing.
 
 
 
Then its the experimenter bath bomb.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The colours in this are absolutely amazing the colours are beautiful.  In the bath it smells like parma violets (the sweets) but if you actually smell the bath bomb it doesn't really smell of anything. When you come out of the bath your body is sparkly even when you've dried. I absolutely love this bath bomb and will definitely buy it again.
 
 
Next is the comforter bubble bar.
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
Its really pretty and it turns the bath pink. It smells really really nice. To stop bits of bubble bar being in the water use a sift : put the bubble bar into the sift them pour water through it to create bubbles and stir the bath water to make more.
 
 
I hoped you enjoyed reading what I thought of these lush products. You can purchase these from any lush store I think but I got mine from the big one on Oxford street in London.
 
 
Bye!!!

Lush Reviews

Hello,

As you may know I went to Lush in Oxford street a few weeks ago. I decided instead of doing multiple short blog posts reviewing products I will do a few big collective review posts. This is the first one of the review posts.


The first product is Shark infested custard. I didn't get a picture of it because is was melted when I got it out of the bag so I just dropped it in my bath. The water turned yellow and it made your skin really soft and it also smells AMAZING.

The next lush product I used was the milky bath bubble bar. I loved this bubble bar. It was my first bubble bar and I loved the feeling of crumbling it then seeing all the bubbles. I didn't really get a strong or distinctive scent from it but it was fun to play with the bubbles. It also made my bath like a cloudy milky white colour.






 
 
The reason I have green bubbles is because I have a coloured light pointed at my bathtub and the silver coloured pipe in the pictures is my shower head pipe.
 
 
 
 
The next product I tried was the Intergalactic bath bomb. It looks like this:
 
 
 

 It made the bath blue when I put it in the bath.
 
 
 
 
It then started shooting out all these different colours and they swirled around and it looked really pretty.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

The water under the bubbles was blue and sparkly. When I got in the bath and all the bubbles had gone it was a solid blue colour.
 
 
 
 
It did leave this the glitter all on the inside of my bath which I had to wipe and rinse off.
 
 
 
The next product I used was
 the bubble gum lip scrub. It smells really good and it makes your lips super smooth.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hope you enjoyed reading what I liked about these lush products and looking at the pictures.
 
 
Bye!!!

DIY room decor and organisation ~ Really easy!!

Hello,


Today I'm going to show you some really easy DIYs.




Number 1 : Nutella jar lamp.


You will need:

* Nutella jar/Mason jar
* Fairy lights (battery powered)
* Cling film
* Cello/sello tape (optional)

This one is super simple.

Step one: Clean out an old nutella jar with hot water. Make sure you wrap cling film around the label and make sure you have pressed the edges down tightly , you could even tape over them (use cello tape / sello tape because its waterproof). Then dry the outside and inside then peel off the cling film (and tape). It should look like this:


 
 

Step two: Put the battery pack inside the jar like this:



 


Then put in the rest of the fairy lights:

 
 
 
Then switch on your lights:
 
 
 
 
 
Step three: Put the lid on and turn the lights off.
 
 
 
 
 





Number 2 : Shopping bag organiser

 If  your desk/dressing table/floor/wardrobe look anything like this ;
 
 
then this room decor/organisation/hack thing (idek) is for you!!
 
You will need:
 
* A shopping bag
* Stuff
 
Step one: Take a shopping bag. I recommend these stores: Lush (if you go to the one on Oxford Street the bags are pretty), Primark (primark ones are really good because they come in different sizes depending on how big the things you buy are) , Victoria's Secret (these ones are really sturdy and cute) , Selfridges and Hollister (I love the way Hollister bags look). If you don't like the way they look you can paint and decorate them yourself.
 
Step two: Place all your junk/stuff in the bag. Simple. Then your done.
 
I love this and I have 5 of them. I have them in my wardrobe, under my desk, on my desk and on my dressing table.
 
 
 
Number 3 : Corkboard jewellery holder.
 
 
You will need:
 
* A corkboard
* Jewellery
* Push pins
 
Step one : Push the push pins into the corkboard one by one then hang your jewellery on the pins. Simple!
 
 
 
 
 

Number 4 :  Push pin paper towns inspired map
 
 
You will need:
 
* A corkboard
* Push pins
* A printer and laptop or a map
* Glue
* Scissors
 
Step one : Print out or cut out your map. I used this one I found on google:
 
 
 

 
 
Step two: Place it onto your cork board and fold over where it overlaps like this:
 
 
 
 
 
Then just cut of the bits that overlap by following the crease lines.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
It should look something like this:
 
 
 
Step three: Stick your map onto the corkboard. Then push the pins into places on the map you have been to , would like to or both. You could also do something like places of long distance family and friends.
 
 
 

Please leave a comment telling me what you thought!!
 
 
Bye!!!

Manchester

Hello,


A few weeks ago it was my birthday. I went to Manchester with my best friend Fran. We drove up to Manchester and we sung in the car the whole time.

We got out off the car in Manchester and got our hair styled I got my hair in a half up half down braided heart that looked really cool and Fran got a quiffed pony with a braid either side of the quiff.

We went into the Hilton and ordered drinks. I got the cherry blossom skies (non alcoholic cocktail)

 
 
 
 
.





 
 
 
 
 
We then went to hey little cupcake which is the cutest little shop ever!!
 
 



This is the store in spinning fields and it is soooo cute. We got ice cream in there. I got the pink vanilla flavour and it was amazing it tasted a bit like cookie dough and just overall goodness.
 
 
This was the cake we got from there. It was really tasty!!
 
We went out to pizza express for dinner and I had my cake there. We went back to my grandmas house then we played heads up which was hilarious.  Then we went to bed.
 
 
We got up in the morning then watched tv down stairs for a bit. We went back up stairs and made a slide out of our air mattresses and our duvets and pillows.
 

 
 Then we went to the Trafford centre shopping. The haul of the things I bought are at the end of this blog.
 
 
We then went to Jump Nation.
 

 
 
We drove home after that and I had an amazing birthday!!
 
 
 
 
 
 
Now its HAUL TIME!!!!
 
 
 
 

 
 
I got the Milky Bath bubble bar in Lush (yes I'm obsessed with that shop).
 
 
 
I also got Zoe's Foam Sweet Foam.
 

 
I got the super drugs own brand pore cleansing nose strips and mattyfying sheets.

 
I thought these earrings would be really good for school as there just coloured studs . These are from accessorize.

 
I got this t shirt from primark in Selfridges.

 
In super drug I also got this nivea in shower moisturiser with firming q10 beads.

 
I also got the Intergalactic bath bomb from Lush. It has lots of colours on it so it looks like it would explode really well.

 
I also got this t shirt which I am in love with from the primark in Selfridges.

 
I got this build a bear from build a bear and I got it scented like bubble gum which I think is awesome.


 
 
I got this Minnie mini tsum tsum from this Disney store because it was soo cute.
 
 
I also got Mirandas sings book, Jessie j's book and louise (sprinkle of glitters) book.
