No one is a bigger fan of LUSH than me. I love treating myself to a new bath bomb or shower scrub and LUSH is my absolute favorite place to splurge. And so it pains me to say that I haven’t fallen in love with everything I’ve tried from there. Today I’m sharing some of my biggest LUSH fails. I’d love to hear what LUSH products you love/hate. I always love trying out new products! 



{1} Prince Charming Shower Cream


This shower cream was a limited edition that LUSH came out with back in February during Valentines day. I went into the store and smelled the tester and loved the scent. But I didn’t purchase it because I already had way too many things in my basket! I immediately regretted it. I live about an hour and a half from the closest store and I just knew I had missed my chance to own this pretty pink great smelling shower wash. I ended up returning to the store a few weeks later when I was in town unexpectedly and they only had a few left. The girl told me that they wouldn’t be restocking i`t since it was limited edition so I took it as a sign that I was meant to buy it. 
Fast forward to my first time actually using it in the shower and I HATED it! First of all, when I smelled it in the store, the scent must have mixed with all the other products in the store and masked it’s true smell. -I find this happens a lot at Bath and Body Works too. I can smell a product at BBW and love it but feel completely different about it when I get it home.- Secondly, the pink color creates a MESS in the shower! I was sadly not impressed with this one.  


{2} Volcano Foot Mask
Now, let me start off on this one by saying it does work really well and it feels great after you use it! With this foot mask, you are suppose to apply it to your clean feet for 10 minutes. I love how my feet feel after I use this. It’s like they are cold and hot at the same time. What makes this a disappointing product for me is the fact that it dries out in the container almost immediately after you first open it. I thought this might have just been a bad container so I repurchase it because, like I said, I really do think it does a good job. But the second container did the exact same thing. I’m on the hunt for another foot mask now!


{3} Cup O’Coffee Face Mask
I love a good face mask and a good cup of coffee, so when I saw this one in the store, I thought it was a match made in heaven for me. Oh my goodness this mask stinks! It smells exactly like coffee, but not the good kind! It was SO STRONG that I couldn’t leave it on for longer than 5 minutes. I hated this one!

{4}Tea Tree Water Toner
This toner water has a cult following, so I purchased it to see what all the fuss was about. I don’t get it. It didn’t do anything for my face and it left it feeling sticky! Yuck! I much prefer this toner.

{5} Big Blue Bath Bomb
LUSH bath bombs are quite possibly my favorite thing in the world. There’s nothing better than taking a bath and using a bath bomb. This bath bomb, however, creates the biggest mess you’ve ever seen! Inside the bomb are tiny pieces of seaweed and when you drain the tub, the seaweed sticks to the bottom and it takes forever to clean up. I HATE this! The bath bomb is great other than this fact, but because of this I will not repurchase it. The Easter Bunny didn’t know this and so I have one to use, but it will be my last!

{6} Dream Cream Body Lotion (not pictured)
The Dreamwash scent from LUSH is one of my most favorite scents of all time! In fact, the Dreamwash shower skin conditioner is probably my favorite LUSH product. I thought the lotion would be a no brainer, but I hated it! The scent is great, but the formula is SO greasy! I couldn’t even stand to just use it at night. I had to give it away because it was wasting away sitting on my counter. I wish they would create a lighter version of this lotion because the scent is wonderful!

So, that’s what I definitely don’t love at LUSH! What about you? Do you have any not so fav products from LUSH? I’d love to hear about them or your FAVS!

Are you a kindle lover or no? I feel like I become Are you a kindle lover or no? I feel like I become a kindle girlie during the winter months, but I have no clue why. I usually always prefer a physical book, but here lately I’m glued to my kindle. I remember this happened to me last winter, too. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m flying through my TBR though, so let’s call it a win!

Kicking off my holiday reading with Falon’s Ball Kicking off my holiday reading with Falon’s Ballard’s newest rom com, All I Want is You! I love this author, so I’m excited for this one. 🩷📖🎄

Synopsis:
All Jessica has ever wanted is her own happily ever after. But until that happens, she spends her days as a small-time romance writer, penning satisfying Happily Ever Afters to soothe the heartache left by her ex-boyfriend Nick—also a romance writer and now her biggest rival—who has found success writing love stories without happy endings. It’s what he’s good at, after all . . .

So when their professional obligations bring them to a remote inn a few days before Christmas, they’re a little more than peeved, especially when they get trapped sharing a room in a snowstorm. But what’s more fitting for two romantic writers in a slump? Realizing the friction between them might be the only cure for their writer’s block, they decide to turn their frustration into fiction . . . and the pages start flying. But will Jess’s heart soar, too? Nick is the last guy on earth she should love . . . but what if he is really all she wants for Christmas?
What I read this week 🩷📖 It took me all wee What I read this week 🩷📖

It took me all week to read The Favorites by Layne Fargo, which usually means I’m not loving a book, but I’m thrilled that’s not the case with this book! It was just a super busy week for me so I didn’t read as much every day as I wanted, but I absolutely LOVED this book! It releases January 14, so mark your calendars now! I don’t even love figure skating/ ice dancing (honestly I’ve never even heard of this) and I still was obsessed with this book. Highly highly recommend!

Thanks for my early review copy, @atrandombooks

Halfway thru this book and I can. not. put. it. do Halfway thru this book and I can. not. put. it. down. 1000% obsessed. It releases in January, so put it on your TBRs NOW! Oh my goodness I’m loving this book!

Synopsis:

She might not have a famous name, funding, or her family’s support, but Katarina Shaw has always known that she was destined to become an Olympic skater. When she meets Heath Rocha, a lonely kid stuck in the foster care system, their instant connection makes them a formidable duo on the ice. Clinging to skating—and each other—to escape their turbulent lives, Kat and Heath go from childhood sweethearts to champion ice dancers, captivating the world with their scorching chemistry, rebellious style, and roller-coaster relationship.

Until a shocking incident at the Olympic Games brings their partnership to a sudden end.

As the ten-year anniversary of their final skate approaches, an unauthorized documentary reignites the public obsession with Shaw and Rocha, claiming to uncover the “real story” through interviews with their closest friends and fiercest rivals. Kat wants nothing to do with the documentary, but she can’t stand the thought of someone else defining her legacy. So, after a decade of silence, she’s telling her story: from the childhood tragedies that created her all-consuming bond with Heath to the clash of desires that tore them apart. Sensational rumors have haunted their every step for years, but the truth may be even more shocking than the headlines
