The Art Of Bathing

The Art Of Bathing Hatbox from Lush was one of my birthday presents from my boyfriend. 
I was so excited when I opened this because I've only tried a handful of their products.
This is what the box contains. (the eagle-eyed reader may spot a few glossyboxes lol)
The Bubble Bars
clockwise from bottom left- Pop In The Bath, Ma Bar, Blue Skies and Fluffy White Clouds, The Comforter, Karma
 The Bath Ballistics
clockwise from bottom left- Butterball, Fizzbanger, Avobath, Sex Bomb, Big Blue, Blackberry
My Dragon's Egg Bath Ballistic was broken :(

The best part of this gift is that my bedroom smells of a lush store, which makes me v happy.

If you guys want reviews or my thoughts on any one of these products let me know.

Glossy Box for Men: Box 2





What's in the box?
Organic Homme by Green People Active Fix Repair Serum
4711 The Original Eau De Cologne
The Legends London Alum Matchsticks
Fab Body Moisturiser
Liz Earle for Men Face Scrub
Kyoku For Men Sake Infused Shave Cream
Dr Bronner's Magic Liquid Soaps Lavender Hand Sanitiser

The boys get seven products every box because it's a quarterly product. I actually get really excited opening this box (it is my boyfriends but I love seeing new beauty products - women's and men's)
The two stand out products for me are the Liz Earle Face Scrub and the Alum Matchsticks.
I've never seen anything like these matchsticks and I'm really intrigued to see them in action. You just run the matchstick under water and then rub the tip over the skin to calm shaving rashes.

I actually stopped my subscription to glossy box because I wasn't using many of the products I received. It would be awesome if it was made like Glossy Box for Men - a quarterly service that sends you products tailored to your needs.

L'Oreal Mythic Oil

For those of you who follow me on twitter, you will probably already know that I signed up for glossybox and got my first box this month.
I've been a fan of the whole idea behind it since I first heard of birchbox (the American version) nearly a year ago so was really excited to learn that there was going to be an English version. Like most people, I waited a few months to see what it was like before signing up myself.

I was going to do an open box post, but I'd seen a lot of them about and wanted to bring a different kind of post to the mix. So, I've decided to talk about my stand-out product from September's box: L'Oreal Mythic Oil.


I am in love with this product, honestly. I only received my glossybox ten days ago and already I've used so much of it.
I use it on wet hair after I've washed it just like I would a serum, but I also use it on dry hair to give my ends a boost and also just before bed as a mask.
The products claims to leave hair 'instantly more supple, tamed and glossy.' I completely agree with this. My hair has been unmanageable for ages, with constant dying, heated tools and teasing so I've had problems with dry/split ends. But after using this product, it was a lot easier to comb. 
Also the scent is gorgeous. It is made from avocado oil and grape seed oil. It smells really fresh.
This is something I would definitely buy. 

I was not paid for this review. I bought the glossybox and honestly believe this product is amazing. 
sorry for the webcam pictures, I'm having problems with my PC and camera atm.
