Lush || Spring Blogger Tea Party...

So Lush Spring Products have arrived...

I won't go into too much detail about them but I shall link all the products available to buy from their Mother's Day or Easter range. Like always this will be a very picture heavy post because Lush products are too pretty not to photograph.

Most of the products you do need a bath for but they have a few shower options too.

We were greeted with an Alice in Wonderland based tea party theme, with tiny cups, tiny macaroons and tiny chocolates.

E A S T E R...

Holy moly check out these amazing Golden Egg bath bombs! They're way too pretty to use, I would just want a nest of them on display all of the time. 

Touch them once and you will be covered in gold glitter, not saying that is a bad thing!!

Which came first?

This delight has a surprise and you can split this into 3 baths to make it last longer. Crack it open and it has a baby chick bath bomb inside.

Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall, 

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall, 

All the King's horses and all the King's men, 

Couldn't put Humpty together again.

A sad poem but in this case Humpty has a teenie tiny fried egg inside of him.

The Good Egg gift set looks super cute and has lots of treats inside...

Bunch of Carrots reusable bubble bars, I love the look of these, how colourful and fun they are.

Ultraviolet or as the Lush ladies named it, the Goth Rainbow (haha I think I prefer this name...)

Bouncy Bunny a super cute bunny shaped, orange scented shower jelly.

Fluffy Egg, which smells very similar to Snow Fairy a favourite of mine and it looks super cute.

Somewhere Over The Rainbow is a soap I didn't get a photo of.

Easter Wrap - Easter Pals

M O T H E R ' S  D A Y . . .

I love this idea, I don't drink tea myself but I think a reusable bubble bar in the shape of a tea bag with surprise petals inside is super cute - Flowering Tea.

Check out this adorable little Ladybird bubble bar, almost too cute to use.

I'm super excited to use this Yummy Mummy shower gel, it smells glorious.

Rose Bombshell fizzes and has petals in the centre which burst out and leave you with a super pretty bath.

The Happy Mother's Day gift set has an amazing array of treats for any bath lover.

Lastly this Sunrise soap is a mandarin scented soap, I also can't wait to use this.

I've Started a YouTube Channel...

I thought I'd do a little blog post about the fact I've started a YouTube channel where I will be posting make up looks. A major passion of mine is make up and thoroughly enjoy getting creative with my looks every day I do my make up. I always love helping people with finding products to suit their needs and teaching people make up techniques.

Here's a link to my YouTube channel-

Coco's Makeup Bag

And here are my first two videos which got uploaded recently...

Copper Halo Eye feat. Makeup Geek

Burgundy Eyes with Winged Liner Feat. Colourpop

If you like my videos so far I would love to get some more subscribers as I will be uploading (hopefully) on a regular basis. 

Come follow me on Instagram, I regularly post my make up looks on there.

Barefaced with Magnitone (*) ...

LOOK AT HOW PRETTY IT IS!

I recently got my hands on a gorgeous mint coloured Magnitone BareFaced and I'm in love...

This came with a USB charging cable which plugs into the magnetic charging egg; this makes the Magnitone completely waterproof so no worries when you're using it in the shower or bath. It also came with a splash proof bag to keep it all in, great for travelling with.

The Magnitone BareFaced comes in 3 different colours, Pastel Green, Pastel Pink and Pastel Yellow.

You can buy interchangeable brush heads for different skin types - 

Active Clean (For all skin types)

Soft & Sensitive

The Stimulator (Lifting & Toning)

You change the brush head every 3 months or whenever it's looking a bit sorry for itself.

You can get a Shower Hammock so you can store your Magnitone in the shower along with 2 spare brush heads.

One of the great things about these is that you can use them with any sort of skin care, they say it super charges them, makes them work better and helps them sink into the skin.

I love to wear make up so need to have a good base for it all to be applied to. I use mine daily in the shower with a face wash as I like to start (and end) the day with clean & fresh skin. 

I've also used it to wash off my face masks. 

It leaves my skin super soft after each use and has brought out any blemishes that were lurking under my skin, these are now fading faster with using it as well.

There are 2 modes - 

Gentle Vibra-Sonic Deep Pore Cleansing

Pulselift Toning Mode

There's a cute little video they have made to show how it works & it's different benefits, linked here.

You can learn all about the history behind Magnitone here.

"As two blokes in beauty, we wanted to create a brand that harmonised beauty technology and healthy well-being..."

I definitely think these are worth the investment, especially with the 12 month warranty. This upped my skin care game and can't wait to be able to go Bare Faced on days I don't wear make up.

I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I enjoyed using my pretty Magnitone...

DIY || Unique Palettes feat. Makeup Geek...

For a while now I've been wanting to have a customisable make up palette and I finally had an idea on how to make it fun & unique to me (and you if you feel inspired by this post).

Growing up with my Dad obsessed with auctions and vintage items, I think some of that rubbed off on me as I too have a love for quirky older items. 

I had been racking my brain on what was out there that I could use as my own version of the well known z-palette and finally thought of old cigarette cases. On good old eBay I found these cases you see below, I thought it would be good to have 2 sizes for travel purposes. Most of the DIY items I actually also bought off eBay. 

You will need -

Magnetic Sheet (sticky or non sticky)

Double Sided Sticky Tape (if you opted for the non sticky from above)

Scissors

Ruler/Measuring Tape

Your chosen case

And lastly some make up to put inside

I chose Makeup Geek as I have seen so many YouTubers loving it, I had a research and found out that the pans are magnetic. I bought my Makeup Geek eye shadows from Beauty Bay.

The rest isn't hard, you just measure & cut the size of the magnetic sheet you need to fit in your case and then stick it in. Some of the cigarette cases have a section inside that once held the cigarettes in but I just removed these so there was nothing getting in the way. 

(Step by step photos below)

I have rather a large list of Makeup Geek eye shadows that I would like to one day fill these up with but for now I chose (above left to right) - Peach Smoothie, Flame Thrower (Foiled) & Mocha.

Swatches below...

Here are the final pieces, showing how the 3 eye shadows fit in each case. I am super happy with how they turned out and can't wait to get more eye shadows to add to my new collection.

Make sure you follow my Instagram as I am always posting make up looks so there should be one soon using these stunning eye shadows.

If you get inspired to create something similar make sure to tag me in your photos on Instagram...
