Lush - Valentines Day


Here is my review on one of the new valentine products LUSH has released for Valentines Day 2010...





The Ex-Factor Bath Bomb


From the LUSH website -
"This is our antidote to Valentine's Day, inspired by a plan to rid the world of the memories of useless men (and useless women, if there are any) from the past. Limb by limb you dip the little chap into the bath water to dissolve away all the thoughts that are holding you back, so you are ready to start afresh with a ni'ce person. At the same time you have a lovely deep blue bath with Butterball scent."

This bath bomb is so cute. I love that its blue, and when it dissolves in the water it leaves the most beautiful color. It has the vanilla scent of Butterball, but unfortunately doesn't give the same level of moisture. The Ex-Factor is $4.95 for 3.5oz, so its pretty reasonable. I bought 5, because I like the vanilla scent and love the blue water. If you like those 2 things then The Ex-Factor Bath Bomb is for you.

Nail Art

About a week ago I was browsing random youtube videos and I came across a video of a guru letting her subscribers know that there was a sale going on for Konad. She stressed that this was the best discount she had seen on the product. So I decided to check out the website to find out more about the product (I love a good sale).
The website had all these gorgeous pictures of nail art, but I still was a little lost about what Konad was, or how it worked. I decided to search youtube for more about Konad.

Here is what Konad is:
Konad is a nail art stamping system. With the use of special nail polishes and image plates, you can create your own custom nail designs. While I am not perfect with this system yet, I would say that it's super easy and a lot of fun. I will be posting a step by step tutorial using Konad soon.

Here are some of the designs I have done...

Cherry Culture Haul

So I was watching a collection video on Youtube, and a guru was showing off some interesting NYX palettes. My Ulta doesn't have a big NYX section, so I checked my other source for all things NYX: Cherryculture.com. That's when I saw they were having a 20% sale! (its no longer going on unfortunately)

So here is what I got:





  • NYX The Runway Collection 10 Color Eyeshadow Palette in Catwalk (Browns) $9
  • NYX The Runway Collection 10 Color Eyeshadow Palette in Versus (Purples) $9
  • NYX For Your Eyes Only 10 Color Eyeshadow Palette in Smokey Eyes $9
  • NYX Girls Round Lip Gloss in Peach $2
  • NYX Girls Round Lip Gloss in Ballerina Pink $2
  • NYX Girls Round Lip Gloss in Very Clear $2
  • NYX Fabulous Eyelashes in 102 $4
  • NYX Single Eyeshadow in Laniki $3.50
  • NYX Long Pencil in Natural $2
  • NYX Long Pencil in Plush Red $0 (Buy one, get one FREE!)
  • NYX Round Lipstick in Hebe $2
  • NYX Round Lipstick in Tea Rose $2
  • NYX Round Lipstick in Louisiana $2
  • NYX Round Lipstick in Strawberry Milk $2
  • NYX Nail Polish in Dream $3.50
I put prices next to each item in case you are interested. NYX has a great selection, and its all at affordable prices. I will be doing reviews as I get to play with the items.
My subtotal was $54, and I saved $10.80 with the 20% off. So all of this came to $43.20!!!
