Pamper Evening

Hello my lovelies,


♥So I was recently inspired to do a pamper evening post. I always spend at least an evening a week where I take out a few hours for a relaxing routine to keep my stress levels balanced and to just have time to myself.

♥I usually start the evening by running a bath, lighting some candles and then washing my face with my cleanser to open the pores so that the steam from the bath can do its job.

♥I always add bubbles to my bath, because I feel more relaxed with them and I dunno, I think it just adds to the effect, and sometimes you can get bubble bath that adds colour your bathwater, like the products from Lush and it just makes a difference.

♥Once i'm in the bath, i'll use a body scrub and exfoliate all over my body to get rid of dead skin and to keep my skin soft and nourished. Then once its all washed off, a normal shower gel or body oil for shaving. Once i'm all clean and refreshed I'll either read a book or play a game on my phone, whilst having some relaxing or quiet music on in the background. 

Currently, I am reading a novel called 'The Road'.
I'm enjoying it, but it is quite graphic and depressing.

♥Once you're all done relaxing and you feel like you've finished in the bath. I like to wash my hair because I don't like washing it in bubble bath and because it's coloured and I don't want it to mix it with the bath water. Once I've finished washing my hair. I'll do a face mask. I really like using seaweed 'peel off' masks because it leaves my skin feeling incredibly soft and I find 'peel off' masks much cleaner to take off and they don't make as much mess. 

Looks like I'm naked. hehe. Seaweed mud mask.

♥Whilst the mask is setting for the 10-20 minutes. I usually moisturise the whole body and then pop on my pajamas and either lie on my bed with cucumbers on my eyes or just go on my laptop and do something to fill the time :p

♥Then comes the washing off of the mask or in this case the 'peeling off'.

♥Then I'll finish off with my evening skin care routine, moisturiser or liquid gold and that's the 'pamper evening' done.

♥I hope you enjoyed this blogpost and found it useful, has it inspired you to have a pamper evening tonight? 

♥Comment, follow and share, I'd love to hear about your pamper evenings and how they differ to mine:)

Lush Haul

This afternoon, I went to Lush in Kingston, if you have never been, it's a unique soap store that has the most amazing hand crafted items that will leave your nostrils drowned in sweet scents.

I would like to share with you the items I bought and made:)

♥This product is called 'Space girl bath ballistic'.

It turns your bath water blue, and comes with popping candy, and if you put your head underwater, you can hear all the crackling.

Smells of grapefruit and makes your skin smell sweet.

♥This bath bomb, is called a 'butterball' and its specialises in keeping your skin moist so it doesn't dry out with the hot water.It smells absolutely amaazzingg quite, musky and vanilla like
and the main ingredient is cocoa butter.

♥This particular item is called 'creamy candy bubble bar'. It leaves your bath pink and produces lots of bubbles. It's a lot of fun, and leaves you smelling like candy.


It smells like sweet candy floss with a mix of bubblegum and the main ingredient is vanilla.

♥This product, I made by myself. I chose the colour pink, because I thought it was really girly, and having a pink bath is unusual.


It smells like strawberry's and vanilla (so basically like an ice-cream) and acts just like a regular bath bomb.
