fashion blog

Hi lovelies.

Just to let you all know, I have a new blog called First-For-Fashion.

Yes, I'm stating the obvious and telling you that it's a fashion blog!

I don't think that fashion really is portrayed as much as I would like it to be, so this second blog is just for fashion.

It's aiming to portray my likes, dislikes, clothes and inspirations.

So, if you'd like to pop over and give the little follower button a nudge if you're interested in fashion.

I'd really appreciate it!

chill days

Sometimes, taking a nice family day without the worry of laptops, computers and the internet world is a gift.

To take a break from the stress from exams, revision, school and everything that’s going on in my life at the moment was wonderful and very much needed!

So, what was a better time to spend outside and breathe than this weekend? Here’s a few photos I took from a very relaxing day out in the garden. J

Don't you just love family days in the sun? 

Oh. I'd just like to say that I may not be posting as much as usual due to the amount of exams and revision and work I need to get done, but we should get back to normal soon!

As I've mentioned before, I love bath bombs. Pink, purple, green, blue, glittery or sparkly, I love them.

Space Girl from Lush is my all-time favourite bath bomb.

It's a delicately scented purple bath bomb which just fizzles away in the bath and overall, brightens your mood.

It's just a small purple/blue bath bomb with what looks like a ring around a planet on.

It's covered in red and gold glitter and the first time I bought this, I thought I'd come out like a glitter ball. Well, in the end I didn't. There's glitter in the tub but there's not too much that stays on your skin.

The thing I love most about this product is the smell. It smells like the British sweets called Parma Violets and that's one of my all-time best scents. I love it!

This bath bomb turns the bath water into a gorgeous purple colour.

To be completely honest, the only reasons why I use bath bombs is for the coloured water and the divine smells. I don't really think that this product moisturized my skin but that honestly doesn't bother me because that's not what I buy it for! So if you're looking for a moisturizer bath bomb, I wouldn't recommend this bath bomb.

What's your favourite bath bomb?

i (don't) love...

I'm a sucker for nice smelling shower gel and bath products.

When I was in Superdrug a few weeks back picking something up for my mum when these were on offer at 2 for £3, so I bought raspberry and blackberry along with coconut and cream.

I think that the packaging on these are adorable. They remind me of Philosophy products, by the way they're so simple with a paragraph of words. These also smell amazing too!

Sadly, I was just not impressed by these products at all. The first time I used them, I used the raspberry and blackberry shower gel as a bubble bath, and the coconut and cream one for shower gel. With regards to the bubble bath, I was not impressed at all. Yes, it made bubbles but not very much. There was also red strings of this all over the bath and in the water which would not budge or turn bubbly.

As for shower gel, I wasn't impressed either. There was no lather, and for a lather lover like me, this was really disappointing. The only good thing about this product was the price. They retail at about £2 in Superdrug for one 500ml bottle, but I'm not willing to pay £2 for a smell! But hey, you get what you pay for I guess.

Have you tried these? What did you think?
