Elizabeth Arden freebie :(

I received an email from Elizabeth Arden about their new products with an offer of a foundation and lipstick freebie at participating stores so, as i was going into town i decided to go makeup free and test their foundations as i have never used them before.

I got to Debenhams and after waiting what seemed like forever for the lady in front to be served i asked about their foundation only to be told that the lady from the Elizabeth Arden counter was not in today,grrrr

Anyways i decide to try at boots as its on my way, after much walking round and round an empty counter i decide to ask a lady on no7 counter if there is anyone working on Elizabeth Arden, only to be told that she was probably on her break.

whats the chances eh,two counters and nobody on either to serve me.

Its times like this i wish i was a secret shopper lol

Not good Elizabeth Arden,not good :(

Lush Space girl bath ballistic review

I bought this bath ballistic last week mainly (as with most lush products) because i love the smell.
really reminds me of parma violet sweets,i am also a sucker for the sweeter smelling lush products.

I ran the bath and dropped it in,it fizzes away making your water a shade of violet and giving off the lovely sweet aroma.
it also made my skin silky smooth and at £1.90 it is one of the cheaper products but well worth a try for yourself.
don't let the glitter put you off it doesn't leave you covered in glitter!
 
I'm in a dilemma with lush at the moment,i have tried lots of the products (some i love and some not so good) and i am now running out of new things to try but fear not Easter is just around the corner and i have heard that there are some new Easter editions coming out soon, hehe cant wait :)

Blog post of the week

This weeks blog post of the week goes to Hayley @ Pink diamonds and sparkles.
I am really enjoying reading her blog at the moment and in this particular blog post she plays tribute to her lovely grandma.
Having lost someone close too i think posts like this are a lovely way to keep the memories alive and let the world know how much you loved that special person. :)

Saturdays freebies

Went to my local lush store today which happens to be up the road (don't know if that is good or bad thing)
It is the 4th birthday and to celebrate they were letting customers make their own 'Sex Bomb' bath bombs,having used this product already and loved it i nipped in with my daughter.
It was great,really enjoyable and we got to keep them for free which was extra fab :)

whilst i was there it was rude not to buy something so i bought a butterball bath ballistic and marshmallow bath melt



also bought this mint julips lip scrub for my daughter,i already have the sugar lips one



I popped into Debenhams and handed in a voucher (which can be found in this months Marie Claire magazine) for Bare Minerals foundation sample which came with a little brush.
I was treated to an application of the bare minerals products which was sooo relaxing and looked great.
not sure yet if i would buy or stick to the usual Estee Lauder double wear light.



what do you prefer,mineral foundation or liquid foundation,please let me know your views :)
