Lush Volcano Review.

Hey bloggers.
Long time no write.

That is all my fault.
I have been planning for the last few days some new posts for you all.

Now this one is just a short review but I have some new longer posts lined up later in the week.
Now a few months ago. I told you that I purchased Lush's foot scrub and mask volcano.
Years ago I used to have really nice feet. Never a dry patch and always nail polished to perfection.
Then I went to university. For three years I just gave up on my feet looking nice and did other things. Like drinking.

So my midget size three's now need major repair. Nearly a year after my university life ended. My feet still don't look in any better shape.

So I decided to give Volcano a go.
This is what it looks like on.
After 10 minutes on, it really makes your feet tingle. This is perfect for anyone who has sore, swollen or aching feet.

It then dries slightly, so when you wash it off it also gives your feet a good scrub. The pumice in the mask, makes it perfect for feet because it's so gritty and gets into really hard, tough and dry skin.

But because this is quite an intensive treatment you do need to make sure you use a foot cream afterwards but most of us do that after a foot scrub anyway.

The is only major issue with volcano. Is that it quite messy but it does clean up very easily. So if you can handle that for more softer feet. Then it's definitely worth it.

So in jist are my feet any better after using Volcano.
Yes they are. The hard skin seemed much less prominant but my feet were really bad in the first place, So I think I need at least another couple of Volcano treatments to get them at peak condition again.

If you wear heels or stand on your feet all day. This is the perfect foot treatment for you.
The damage. Just £5.25.
A bargain for a pair of softer, less swollen tootsies.

New products part 3

Hey bloggers
Hope you having a lovely day/night wherever you are.

Just thought I would show you a few products I have bought in the last week.
Now last week was pay day so I finally got to treat myself to some goodies but I am off to Sheffield for the day on Wednesday, so I will probably have to add to this list.

This is just some of the lush stuff I bought.
The moon on the stick bath bomb and Twilight shower gel are Lush forum products that you can buy for basically being a huge lush fan.
I haven't used the moon on a stick yet but the twilight shower gel is a beautiful malt and lavender shower gel and after I used it I slept like a baby.
Gorgeous.

Big and Retread are hair products.
Big is a sea salt and lemon shampoo and I use it on nights when I'm going out. Basically it makes your hair huge.
I love to back comb my hair and the sea salt gives you some huge volume so you don't need to spend hours with the brush, plus the tub lasts a good while.

Retread is a hair mask which smells beautiful. It smelt so good that even after I washed and conditioned my hair I could still smell it. It is also so nourishing and makes the hair so soft and smooth.

Volcano is a foot mask and scrub. Now lately my feet have been awful. I just can't get them into nice shape. So I bought this to try and sort them out.
I will be doing a post later in the week with foot products (including volcano) to see if these products can really make a difference to my poor feet.

I also got later in the week.
A brand new hand serum, some L'occitane hand and foot cream.

The hand serum is called tiny hands and is full of shea butter and smells like flowery lemons (Yes that is the best way to describe it). I actually can't stop using it. I love the fact you can really control how much you use and not only is it going to last me ages but it's a bit harder for me to lose.
(Hand cream and lip balms go missing a lot in my care)

The L'occitane products are 30ml hand and foot cream. The hand cream contains 20% shea butter and although doesn't have much of a smell. Its got the multi tasking nature of being thick but not too greasy. It's also small enough to fit in my handbag, which I like.

The foot cream is 15% shea butter and also has a slight spicy smell. It also has arnica in which, helps with bruising and swelling so it will be good for feet.
I tried a little bit earlier and I feel like it's thick enough to tackle my poorly, horrible feet.

I will do a smaller post if I buy anymore products/
Let me know if you have tried any of these products.
I will surely tell you about them more in later posts.
Comments welcome.
