Lush products, London trip | Little update on life

So everyone, it's been a while since I actually blogged something that wasn't 'Thankful Thursday'. All I can say is that I have been extremely lazy last week. Sure there was college and work but any time I was free I was either napping or catching up on my tv shows... anyone that watches 'Baby Daddy' let me know whether you're team Danny or Ben. Every episode just gets better and better, so I advise ye people who want a laugh to watch it.

This post is just a little update over the last week. Even though there was sleep deprivation I still had lots of fun. I got to explore a little more around London. I attended this little music, prayer service in London. Young adults from all around the world came to share their prayers through their own languages. The music was beautiful. I can still hear that wonderful cello... an instrument I most desire to learn.

I loved seeing Westminster Cathedral for the first time.
The architecture of the building was just so magnificent. Very grand compared to my little church back home in dear old Ireland, Haa! But seeing the amount of work that was put in was breathtaking.








Today after bringing my little cousin to a little Easter craft activity class and Irish dancing lessons (imagine when I am a Mum... Pheww) I then had a little surprise trip to St. Albans.
I bought a few little essentials in Boots, sun lotion, after sun moisturiser and so on... getting my last minute shopping done for my holiday, then for the first time, I entered Lush. I've heard far too many great comments about this place from bath lovers. And I am a bath lover.
Even before I saw the shop I could just smell the deliciousness of the place... "Where is that amazing smell coming from?"

I didn't want to leave the place, as I was having so much fun getting over-whelmed by the so many different smells there was. I made sure what I bought would be worth it, so I circled the shop like 4 times. In the end I decided on two items. Bath bombs. And yes I did imagine my tub exploding as I threw it in! Such a day dreamer!


Firstly I decided on getting the 'Blackberry Bath Bomb'. It was too delicious to leave behind. I mean come on! Who doesn't wasn't to smell like Ribena coming out from the bath tub! It's every girls dream!




And here I only used half of it. Smelling like a blackberry, Oh Yeah!


And secondly I bought this beauty. The 'Tisty Tosty'. The lady in the shop threw it into a basin of water and there I was  'Ooooing' while watching it sizzle like a rasher on a pan (not such a great comparison... smelling of grease can be a little different than smelling like a rose.) But the rose buds were just left floating as though it were a pretty pond... "I'M GETTING IT!"






Then just to finish the day off, me and my aunt went to this lovely cafe. The Merchant, in St. Albans. I had a latte while my aunt taunted me with her mocha. I mean look how amazing it looked with it's overloaded cream and topped off chocolate powder.


This is what keeps me happy. Just having a day with exploring around. Not planning the day out, just going with the flow. The only thing that is missing is having my bestie Edel. She would make the experience over here in London a little more fun. Filling it with memories.

Are any of you addicted to Lush? If so, please let me know what your favourite products are, or if you've heard any good reviews that too is welcome. I really want to test out every single one of them.

Thanks so much for reading lads & lassies,
