My first ever LUSH products!♡

So I will finally admit that I have never used a LUSH product up until this month *holds hands up*

I've walked into the store numerous times, smelling all the bath bombs and trying out the face masks but just never seemed to get my hands on any of the products for myself (I've purchased some as gifts for friends). Until this Christmas. It's pretty much a yearly tradition that my friends and I exchange gifts and this year I have received some LUSH goodies which I was super happy with. 

I got two bath bombs: dashing santa and candy mountain (I believe that's what it's called) and the bubble gum lip scrub. Overall. I'm very impressed with all of the three products.  The dashing santa bath bomb smells so so good and it made my bath water turn orange which is bright and pretty. Candy mountain is to be crumbled under the running tap and I've only used a little bit but from what I experienced, I really like it. It made my skin silky and soft and smelt so sweet (I realise I'm saying this about everything). Lastly, I have wanted to try out the lip scrub for a while and now that I've got it I'm really happy. It smells good and leaves my lips soft and exfoliated.

All in all, I'm very happy with these products and will definitely be getting some more LUSH products in 2015!

I hope you all have a good New Year, have a great time and stay safe xx

Christmas Tag ♡

IT'S CHRISTMAS TIMEEEE! After weeks of the build up and excitement, Christmas is finally here. I love this time of the year because it's filled with joy and festive spirit and it just makes you feel good. Today I decided to do the Christmas tag because it's never too late to spread some Christmas cheer, right?!

Questions:

1. What is your favourite holiday movie?

My favourite movie has to be Home Alone, me and my family watch this every year and it would not be a Christmas without Kevin!

2. What are your favourite Christmas colours?

Definitely red and gold!

3. Do you like to stay in your pj's or dress up for Christmas?

I always dress up for Christmas Eve and then Christmas day and boxing day I'm usually in my onesie.

4. If you could only buy one person a present this year,who would it be?

Myself....just kidding. This question is actually really difficult. It'd probably have to be my mum!

5. Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas day?

Christmas Eve because I'm Polish and we celebrate Christmas a little differently :)

6. Have you ever built a ginger bread house?

No, but let me tell you a story. I once bought a gingerbread making set and I thought it'd include everything inside but turns out it only had the gingerbread inside. So, me being me I did not bother to go out and buy icing and decorations and decided to just eat the gingerbread. Therefore, the answer to this question is no but I hope you enjoyed the anecdote.

7. What do you like to do on your Christmas break?

Sleep, eat, spend time with family and friends and read books pretty much!

8. Any Christmas wishes?

None in particular, just good health and lots of happiness in the new year for my family, friends and everyone reading this!

9. Favourite Christmas smell?

A Christmas tree definitely!

10. Favourite Christmas meal or treat?

Being a food lover, I cannot pick a favourite! I enjoy pretty much every single food on the Christmas table!

I tag everyone that wants to answer these questions!

I hope your Christmas is filled with love and happiness

and if you don't celebrate it then I hope you still have a fabulous day

5 things I want to do this Winter ♡

First of all, I'd like to apologise for 1) recent lack of posts and 2) the quality of this picture.

It is that time of the year again, and I have to say I've never been this buzzed for the winter time and activities that come with it! Naturally, there are some things you'd only do especially in winter and I'm about to share my top 5! Here it goes:

1. Drink lots of hot drink - This probably sounds so mainstream and boring, but this winter I would love to try out different festive coffees or hot chocolates that places such as Starbucks and Costa have come out with. This point may or may not also be due to the cute Christmas-y cups.

2. See festive lights - Nothing makes me feel more in the Christmas spirit than cute lights and decorations.

3. Watch a ridiculous amount of Christmas films-  Recently I've acknowledged that life is way too short not to watch all the movies you can find. This is the perfect time of the year to take advantage of it.

4. Do a good deed- Whether it's something little like holding the door open for someone, or lending someone a hand, or donating to charity, there is no better feeling than giving someone a little bit of help.

5. Be happy- Yep, I just want to be happy this month, no matter happens I want to have a smile on my face and make sure everyone else does too. 

Love, Patrycja x
