Lush Sleepy Shower Gel

The Lush Sleepy range is one I have heard so many good things about and I finally managed to get my order in and grab the shower gel alongside a few other products, so I was hoping it would live up to the hype it has created and the expectations I had in my mind.

Lush state that you should start your bedtime routine right with this lavender shower gel and drift of to dreamland with the help of soothing oat milk alongside sweet-smelling tonka and you'll have skin softer than you could ever dream of.

Sleep, drift to sleep,

Sweet tonka counts the sheep,

Lavender shakes the dreamland tree,

And from it fall sweet dreams for thee.

As with all Lush Shower Gels, this one has a lovely formula which isn't too thick or too runny and you need just a few squeezes of the bottle to release more than enough to create a lather, release the scent of those ingredients. and enjoy your relaxing shower.

As with all Lush products, this one also has an impressive list of ingredients which includes:

• Oak Milk - made from rolled oats and something which has been used for centuries, oak milk not only helps to relieve itching, but it is also soothing for the skin.
• Lavender Oil - if sleeping is an issue for you, then Lavender is a great ally when you need to switch off l, relax and wind down before bed. The flowers from Lavender are filled with a product called linalool, and it is known for its sedative effects on the nervous system, so it is perfect for helping to wind down.
• Benzoin Resinoid - Cleansing with products that contain this ingredient is described as being an excellent way to benefit from its natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities whilst feeling relaxed and soothed.
• Tonka Absolute - Wonderfully sweet smelling, it is not only extremely soothing for the skin, but thag aroma is incredibly comforting and brings about a sense of calm.

What I love about this Shower Gel, is that for me it is relaxing, it does aid that process of winding down before bedtime and I can imagine, if paired with the Lush Sleeping Lotion, which I am yet to try, I imagine they would make quite the duo.

This Sleepy Shower Gel from Lush is still on sale online and in store and is priced at £7 for 110g bottle rising upwards depending on the size you purchase.

Roccabox - Spring Fling May 2021 Edition

This months Roccabox is aptly titled 'Spring Fling' and because things are looking up, nature is in full bloom and seeing other human beings other than our household on the horizon. 

Within this months box, the products have been chosen because they are fun, flirty and perfect as we head into the warmer weeks with family and friends. Expect to find hydrating skincare, makeup to keep the shine at bay and a must have SPF.

The first item out of my box and the hero product comes from Illamasqua with Beyond Powder in the shade Deity.

Described as being a baked highlighter powder with a unique golden-green hue, it can be used wet or dry to add a subtle luminosity to skin. Whether or not you want that glow to be subtle or shining like a disco ball, this is the product to do just that and it comes packaged in a hard plastic case with a mirror - so handy for on the go!

The second product out of the box comes from Emery Nails and there are four different shades in the boxes, so you will either get Bear, Belle, Aubrey or Rosy.

This is a brand I have never come across until now, in my box I have the shade Rosy and it is described as having a warm hue and it sits within the deep pink family. It has what is referred to as a luxurious crème formula, so not only is easy to apply, but it is also long-lasting and has a flawless high gloss shine.

Up next we have Doctors Formula and this time it is the Probiotics with the Deep Hydration and Repairing Mask, something we all probably need right now after hours of sitting in front of laptops working from home.

Described as being an intensive treatment that strengthens and rebalances skin, this night time mask works to maintain the skin's good bacteria to ensure a bright, smooth and healthy look. It uses an ingredient called Relipidium which works in harmony with Probiotics to deliver high levels of moisture, which helps to plump the facial contours whilst improving protection against environmental stress.

From Hawaiian Tropic we have their All Natural Mineral Milk SPF30 and it is described as being a is an ultra-spreadable, silky sunscreen lotion.

This lotion is made with 100% mineral actives that provide broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection without chemical filters or parabens. The unique mineral formula doesn’t leave behind the dreaded white cast on the skin like other mineral sunscreens. This nourishing formula is enriched with Hawaiian-inspired botanicals such as coconut and kukui nut which gives you long-lasting, lightweight moisturisation.

The final item in the box comes from Mallows Beauty, a brand I have only ever come across in beauty boxes in recent months, within this box we have the Pink Clay Face Mask.

This mask contains French pink clay which is great for sensitive skin and it works to gently draw out impurities whilst at the same time helping to balance your skin.  Described as being a multi-tasking mask, it contains 98% natural ingredients, including; Hyaluronic acid, melon, strawberry and cranberry extracts. 

This is quite the box, I love that there is a whole host of different products taking in both makeup and skincare. If you didn't know, Roccabox is a beauty box subscription service and there are further subscription offers available to choose from with boxes starting at just £10 per month plus P&P.
