Lush's Twilight Bath Ballistic

A couple of years ago you could have called me obsessed! However not having been to a Lush store in just under a year meant that my love for Lush had sort of been forgotten! But.... A few weeks ago I got the chance to pay my favourite store a visit!
 
 
I picked up a bath ballistic which I had not tried before; it smelt divine and I was lucky enough to see it in action before I bought it. I was intrigued by the colours and the glitter that appeared in the demonstration so I just knew I had to purchase it! As you can tell by the title and the pictures, I bought the well-known Twilight Bath Ballistic! It was retailed at £3.20 which I thought was quite expensive for a bath bomb I was likely to use once, however I had wanted to try it for a while so I just went for it! It has a strong scent of vanilla which is one of my favourite scents, as well as slight undertones of lavender andcitrus. 
 
After running the water, I tossed the bath ballistic into the bath; like other Lush bath ballistics it instantly fizzed to reveal a vibrant pink colour followed by a sky blue colour. The photo above I grabbed from the Lush website; although the bath ballistic did not create as many bubbles and foam as shown in the picture, the bright colours were created just as in the photo. I noticed a lot of glitter floating around in the water which some people may find annoying however it washed away perfectly fine and there wasn’t any left in the bath although a couple of days later I did find some specs on my skin.
Nethertheless I really enjoyed using this bath ballistic; definitely one to try.

Vera Wang Love Struck

The bottle of this perfume originally caught my eye, looking similar to Marc Jacobs Daisy and also Lola; I knew as soon as I had seen it, even without smelling, I needed it in my perfume collection. I fortunately received the perfume for my birthday early in March and then had the chance to discover the scent of it. 

I would describe Lovestruck as a musky floral with a burst of fruitiness, defiantly signifying a romantic feel; therefore If you enjoy sweet smelling floral’s then this is the perfume for you.The top notes for the perfume are a mix between Pink Guava, Angelica Flower and also Mandarin with a mid-note of tuberose and a base of precious woods and sheer musk. This scent takes a mature take on my other Vera Wang perfume; Princess, so if you admired this I would recommend Lovestruck for you also.  The staying ability of Lovestruck is not long however it is easy to keep gradually topping up and re-spritzing.

The perfume can be purchased in a set, including a Lovestruck shower gel and also body lotion. I have thoroughly enjoy using these products as they both smell alike to the perfume its self meaning you are able to use all three which creates a longer lasting scent on your skin.

The perfume would be a loved gift to a variety of different people, ranging from different ages due to its satisfying scent. I am sure whoever received this would enjoy using it as much as I have ( which can obviously be seen in the picture as I have used more than half!)
