Emotional Brilliance

Hiya Lushies!

Hope you are all well! I, personally, am great! I have just moved back to France!

When I first arrived home, I thought "Oh no, no Lush shop close to where I live :'(" But this week, loads of great news. The first one is especially for the Lushies in France, and more specifically in the Loiret, as it was the grand opening of a shop in Orléans! The staff seems really nice, and although they are really packed with clients, they were very helpful! (not surprising ;-) ) For those interested it is on the "rue de la republique"!

But now, on to the news that will get you all really interested! Today was the international launch of Emotional Brilliance! You have been wondering, and waiting to see what it is, now we know: it is an awesome make up range!

 Many products were launched: new colours to tint the skin, some powder, mascara, eyeliners, eyeshadows and lipsticks! With loads of colours, all more beautiful than the other!

It is based on colours showing some aspects of your personality, and you wear them depending on your state of mind, not to go with your outfit.

How does it work?

First, you spin the wheel, where all colours are displayed. Then you choose the first 3 colours that catch your eyes, not because it is your favourite colour, or because you think it would go great with that gorgeous new dress you just got, but because the colour really caught you eye!

The first colour will represent your strength/weakness, then the second one will represent what your subconcious wants/needs, and the third colour represents what you need to achieve your subconscious needs!

My reading was as follow: Charm was my strength, my subconscious needed to lead, and to do this I would do it with happiness!

I ended up getting only happiness, the golden cream eyeshadow (I will try other products later, and will let you know how they go!) I love the colour, it can be used to go out when used not rubbed into your skin (top line on my hand on the picture), or everyday if you rub it in (bottom line). It dries rather quickly, the pigment is very deep, and the colour stays for a really long time!

I heard the cream shadows can also be used as lipsticks and lipsticks as shadows!

The only negative point is the price, as it is quite expensive to buy! But as always, you can be sure of what you put on your skin/eyes! All we need to check now is how long it lasts, but I am sure it lasts a really long time!

If I were you Lushies, I would run to the closest shop to get my own reading (although you can have your reading done on the lush website) and then get my own emotional brilliance product(s)





Enjoy Lushies!

Great legs with Buffy!

Hiya Lushies,

I have been away for quite some time, sorry! I was on Holidays and did not use my computer much, then I had to get ready and sit my resits (which I passed ^^)! And now I am back after having tried some amaaaazing products!!

And today, I want to write about one of the most awesome of Lush's product, which I would describe as WOW!

This product is the solid body butter Buffy. And Lushies love it sooo much that this body butter, contrary to aquamaribilis and You Snap the Whip, exists in 2 sizes, 1 big and 1 small!

So what does it do, and why is it so awesome? 

Easy! Do you have problems of cellulite? Let's face it, most of us probably do, even though some more than others (I'd be in the more category)! Then Buffy is great for that! It is also great, no matter what!!

I always thought that massaging and rubbing problematic zones (thighs) would help get rid of the cellulite, but it never worked! And then, I went in Lush Preston, after reading about Buffy, and I was told that the truth was, moisturizing is what helps to get rid of cellulite! And buffy is a great body moisturizer!

Not only is it great to moisturize your skin, but it is also full of ground rice and ground almond, which gives it a nice nutty smell, and this is great for exfoliating!

How to use?

First, thing I do now with my body butters when I come home is this: I cut it in many little pieces! This is good when you use the body butter only on certain parts of your body, and it will help to make Buffy last longer, like this you don't put the whole bar under water where it melts! Then take a shower, and on clean wet skin, you rub Buffy until you feel satisfied! Then rinse the ground almond and ground rice! When you exit the shower, pat the skin dry, don't rub with the towel, or you might remove some of the oils!

After a couple of uses you should see the cellulite has gone down! And it's great, because you don't have to use a body lotion after your shower!

So here you have it, Buffy, a great product for the summer! One last tip given to me today at Lush Bluewater: if you exfoliate your skin, your tan will last longer! So what are you waiting for? No excuses not ta have great legs this summer!

^^
