Asos spring florals ♡

Hello dolls! Recently the weather in the UK has been awfully rainy and grey even though its nearly summertime! :{ I decided to buy some cute floral items from ASOS to help cheer me up a little bit which I'll be sharing in this post! 

Cath Kidston New Rose Bouquet 2 Fold Wash Bag - Rose Bouquet ~ £16.00 SALE £12.50 ♡

I really love this rose print from Cath Kidston! This is a great quality water-proof wash bag that can carry quite a lot for its size. Check out what I stored in this bag for a preview of a review I will be doing soon! Can you guess what it is? :B

Cath Kidston Bath Sets ~ £12.00 SALE £9.50 ♡

I just had to buy these to go with my new bag! Isn't it the cutest bath set you've ever seen? These were a little bit smaller than I was expecting, but I'm still happy with the size. The shower gel smells gorgeous and is a dream to use, but the rose scent doesn't stay on your skin, so top up with the body cream! I think these would make a great gift for a gal who loves floral or shabby-chic!

Mi Pac Floral Pink Rose Backpack ~ £25.00 ♡

Pink AND floral all in one?! When I set my eyes on this on the ASOS website, I just knew I had to have it! I don't usually use backpacks but it'll be useful to carry stuff to university or work. Admittedly, it does look better on the website's stock photos than in real-life because it's quite unstructured, but I think it's still adorable. It also has a feature on the top of the bag where you can put headphone wires through! Handy, huh?

River Island Floral Print Playsuit ~ £25.00 ♡

I really love the look of this playsuit and the print is lovely. Also, the quality of the material is great for it's price. It has cut-out details and buttons up at the front with a self-tie detail at the waist. As much as I love this, I have to return it because the UK Size 8 swamps me, being the short-cookie that I am. ;___; I'd really recommend this for taller girls, though!

What do you think of these purchases? Are you getting into florals this spring/summer? I'd love to know! n__n

Lots of floral love,

Etude house flamingo eyebrow razors ♡

Today's post will be about these cute little flamingo eyebrow razors from Korean brand Etude House! 

I find that many girls cringe at the thought of shaving their eyebrows, and I've even heard horror stories of girls accidentally shaving their eyebrow off! However, when I saw these cuties on Amazon, I had to give them a try.

The beaks flip out to reveal the razor, and can be closed back in again for safe storage as they are re-usable.  

As you can see, this razor is a lot blunter than razors typically used for the body and they are designed for easy maneuverability. This reduces the chance of taking off any hairs that you actually want!

In these pictures I show you how easy it is to use these razors! They can be used above, on the sides and even below the brow, and are an essential if you wish to create the 'Korean straight eyebrow'. If you usually wax or pluck your eyebrows, these can also serve as a time-saving alternative. Of course, these are useful for shaving other facial hairs as well as strays.

I really do recommend you girlies to try eyebrow razors out! They're such an easy and effective solution to facial hair removal, not to mention they're a super-cute and addition to any beauty collection. 

See you later!

Something a little lush ♡

Lush is a wonderful cosmetics company based in the UK who put their customers, values and ethics at the forefront of everything that they do. Lush products are all their own fresh, handmade creations, using only vegetarian ingredients with little preservatives and packaging.What's more, they are anti-animal testing, and never purchase ingredients from suppliers who engage in such practices.

 Visiting Lush stores are always a fantastic experience and the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable about their products. I bought three bath bombs which I'll be showing you guys today: Sex Bomb, Space Girl and Tisty Tosty!

Sex Bomb ♡ £3.20

"Grab one of these for a wonderful sensual bath 

Grabbing a pair is even better!

This ballistic is packed full of every sensual, relaxing oil we could find. Clary sage, jasmine and ylang ylang, blended into a classic musk base. We then packed it full of soya milk, so you can step out of the bath feeling like Cleopatra."

Hehe, don't you just love the name of this bomb? I was attracted to this one because its colours are so pretty and the rose detail is just adorable. It gives off a lovely fuschia colour in the water and has a subtle floral smell that lingers in your hair long after your bath. The rose is made of rice paper which goes squidgy and floats in the water. It reminds me of the decorative roses you might find accompanying dishes in Chinese restaurants or cakes (don't try to eat these ones though, hehe!). n__n I found this bomb made my bath time really relaxing and it was also moisturising on the skin and hair.

Space Girl ♡ £2.10

"Do you sometimes feel like you’re on a different planet? Don’t feel alien - retreat to the bathroom to float in your own personal space until you feel ready for touch down

Of course, if we were making an interstellar ballistic we had to put space dust in it (otherwise known as popping candy). So make sure you plunge your head underwater if you want to hear the full effects of the crackles and pops."

I love that this bomb looks like a sparkly little planet! It's a dusty blue colour with pretty hot pink and silver glitters, and smells fresh and subtle. I liked the deep blue colour this bomb turned the water, but I didn't think there was enough glitter for my liking. :{ This was not as explosive as I thought it'd be and I didn't really hear much in the way of crackles and pops. However, this bomb is fair for the price and it moisturised my skin. I think they should put little sparkly stars in it! :B

Tisty Tosty ♡ £3.20

"He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me…

Rose absolute, geranium, jasmine, lemon oil and orris – it’s enough to fill anyone with love.

This ballistic is a love spell. Fill the bath, get in, hold the ballistic in your hands whilst contemplating your chosen one. Lower into the water to unleash its powerful magic. Watch the seven rosebuds emerge from the swirling potion and count your way to a budding romance.

We find it hard to put into words how beautiful this ballistic is. We’ve vowed never to stop making it – try one and you’ll see why."

How romantic is this bath bomb? It's a white heart embellished with dried lilac rosebuds. The roses were really cute, but there just wasn't enough of them. :{ It smelled lovely and moisturised, but I wasn't hugely impressed. This is a cute concept though.

I hope this gave you a little insight of what Lush has to offer! Which bomb is your favourite? Let me know!

Until next time, duckies!

Circle lens review: Eos candy brown ♡

Hello! In this post I'll be sharing my own experiences with the EOS Candy Brown circle lens! 

I bought my pair from PinkyParadise. They are a very popular and trust-worthy retailer of circle lenses, accessories and make-up and their shipping is always fast, affordable and reliable. You also receive a free contact lens case with every pair that you order. I have been regularly wearing circle lenses for about 3 years now from PinkyParadise and have had little problems with them. As with all contact lenses, use them at your own risk and stay hygienic to reduce chances of infection.

Statistics ♡

Diameter: 14.50mm

Water Content: 38%

Base Curve: 8.6mm

Type: 1 Year Disposal

Design ♡

These lenses give a very dolly-like appearance because of the thick black limbal ring and they look great with dramatic make-up. Although they have a simple design, I feel that they can look a little unnatural close-up but still very cute. The brown is quite light but they blend nicely with my dark brown eyes and give them that little pop. A friend of mine said I look like a vampire with these on, which she said was a good thing, haha!

Comfort ♡

I've seen a few other bloggers say that these lenses are really comfortable; unfortunately this isn't the case for me. :{ Sometimes they are a little irritable for the first few minutes of wear, and I can only wear them for a few hours before they feel dry and tiring. I think that Geo lenses are a lot more agreeable with me than EOS.

Enlargement ♡
These lenses are 14.50mm so they aren't made for significant enlargement, but the thick limbal rings do help in giving a subtle enlargement.

My Thoughts ♡
I think the design of these are so cute, but they are not the most comfortable lenses for me. Of course, these are my own experiences so it might be different for you!

Buy these lenses here at PinkyParadise!


Thanks for reading!
