Lush Sweetie Pie Shower Jelly Review

Sweetie Pie
For Christmas, my mum received the 'Sparkle' gift set, but as she already has too many body products, she gave me this!

Description:

Sweet and sophisticated fruitiness. Lashings of blackcurrant and bergamot essential oils in a sour cherry and coconut jelly make this about as fruity as you can get. It is incredibly difficult to resist taking a spoonful. Instead, take a handful and smooth it over your hair and body. Passing strangers will smell you and find their minds wandering to fruit pastilles.


Price:

£2.30 for 100g


My Review:

This smells like sweet blackcurrant - mmmm and the smell lingers which is always good. It lathers up really well and leaves your skin feeling soft and clean.

As it is a jelly, I found it quite hard to hold without it slipping everywhere so I think it would be better to use frozen. This way you can crush it on to your body and as it would be cold, it will refresh your skin.


Would I repurchase: No. Not because the product is bad, its actually very good. But £2.30 for a shower gel is quite expensive and there are loads of regular shower gels which do the same job, but for less.

I've just ordered from ELF!

Believe it or not, the only make-up brushes I own are a eye lash/brow comb and a rubbish blush brush which I have been using for everything: face powder, corrective powder, blush and bronzer - it just will not do!

I got a few brushes and some All Over Color Sticks. For ages I've been wanting to buy all of their bronzers, blushes, concealers etc... but when ordering, I just didn't want any. I have all of the make-up I need already, so I just ordered the colour sticks for blush and highlighting. They have a new shade called spotlight which is like a white so I'll be seeing how this does for a highlighter.

Hard Lush Decisions...

I like everything from Lush but personally, I find the bath ballistics a waste of a few pounds as their used up so quickly! I also don't use face masks and find their body butters and facial cleansers etc... a bit expensive. But I do want to start using soap more often. There are 8 I want and it comes to just over 20 pounds for all 8. This is waaay too much money to spend on soap! But I can't limit them down :(



Rock Star

Porridge soap

Vanilla In The Mist

Ice Blue

Honey I Washed The Kids

I Should Coco

Miranda

MudFlats (In retro section. Had before and really liked it)

Superdrug Haul

I bought this little lot today :) - I only went in for some shampoo!

I've tried about five of Vitamin E's products as my mum got them for Christmas. I really like them so I thought I'd get some more, plus I need a good routine :)

Cleanser and eye make-up remover 2 for £3

Facial scrub 2 for £3 ( Couldn't find a picture of the scrub so used the facial wash instead. I've already been using this scrub and like it more than St.Ives. It has oaty bits in it :) )

Moisture cream 2 for £3 - I need to start moisturising!


Illuminating moisture cream 2 for £3 (Packaging is different to what is shown above, crappy Superdrug website!) I am really looking forward to trying this out.

Original Source Lime shower gel £1

Original Source Lemon shower gel £1. I love both of these so much! They smell divine and the lemon one, to me, smells like lemon cheesecake - mmmm!


Coconut & Sweet Almond shampoo 97p

I also got a free pack of face wipes because I spent over £5. Do you think their trying to get rid of them? lol

I have my eye on you... and you

I get my EMA tomorrow so have some pennies to spend! (Before anyone complains, I don't have any school stuff to get so I can spend it!)

Planning on getting some Lush and E.L.F products but here are some things I have my eye on from Newlook: (There's loads I want, but I simply do not have the money!) I'll probably show you completely different things in a few days because I always change my mind!





+ some tights and this should make a cute little outfit!
