Back with a review

Hello cyber world,

I have been a busy little bee lately, I started a new job and it's been great but tiring at the same time! But without fear I am back and plan to continue with this blog, it isn't one of my resolutions (as they usually never last for me), it is just something I want to start doing again because it's fun :)

So I got some lovely Christmas goodies from Lush this year, and the divine smells prompted me to write a review on one of my favourite products from Lush. But do not roll your eyes just yet because it isn't one of the Christmas items because lets face it it's a bit late now what with all or most of it being sold out in the January Sale.

Anyway, onto the product. I have chosen *drum roll please*
Strawberry Feels Forever Massage Bar
It looks like this (you'll have to excuse mine it is well loved and consequently starting to lose it's dippy strawberry bits... wow that was an impressive description haha)
See what I meant about the dippy bits?
Anyway, the first thing I have to mention about this product is the amazing scent that sends me into some sort of dreamy land, it is simply delicious! The Lush website doesn't really have a description of the scent, but if you are a fan of the Yummy Yummy Yummy shower gel, it is exactly the same smell so the two are perfectly matched. However, if you don't know about that shower gel then what I said probably meant very little to you
*doh, get on with it Meg*
Ok so the main scent is *shockingly* strawberries, but because it is mixed with other sweet floral scents, almond oil and what smells like a hint of icing sugar, they all mix together to form a really pretty girly smell.

I use this massage bar as my moisturiser, especially in the winter when I feel like my skin needs it or problem elbow areas, it is really easy to use too (I'm not trying to tell you how to suck eggs here but just in case someone doesn't know how to use these) all you need to do is warm the bar up by rubbing it in between your hands and after a few seconds you will have a thin layer of oil on your hands, and then just massage into your skin and enjoy. I did attempt to take pictures to demonstrate this process but it just looked like I was taking random arm fetish pictures... odd! But none the less it leaves you smelling yummy and it lingers for ages which is why I love it most.

So that is that :) thumbs up for the Strawberry Feels Forever massage bar. Next time you walk past a Lush, which unfortunately for me never happens, my store is 40 mins away *sad face*, definitely check this nifty product out :)

xoxo
