Sarah Loves... Lush Cosmetics



I do I love Lush, absolutely love it!

Lush life believe... in making effective products from fresh organic fruit and vegetables, the finest essential oils and safe synthetics. We believe in buying ingredients only from companies that do not commission tests on animals and in testing our products on humans. We invent our own products and fragrances. We make them fresh by hand using little or no preservative or packaging, using only vegetarian ingredients and tell you when they were made. We believe in happy people making happy soap, putting our faces on our products and making our mums proud. We believe in long candlelit baths, sharing showers, massage, filling the world with perfume and in the right to make mistakes, lose everything and start again. We believe our products are good value, that we should make a profit and that the customer is always right.

Great for all those Christmas gifts where you are after something a little bit different and all girls love it!

Here are some of my faves;

Perfect for getting over a hangover then Too Drunk is the perfect cure or maybe if you find getting up in the morning difficult then try Up You Gets. Do you love cupcakes? Well try Cupcake as your face mask - don't eat it though! My other face favourite is Ocean Salt which I use every other day. 

I have wavy and sometimes unruly hair but this is perfect to tame those frizzes and curls so you gotta try Curly Wurly. Tried a shower jelly? Try this one Sweetie Pie is absolutely devine!

There are also the normal but wide selection of Christmas gift boxes available and there are lots to choose from with a variety of budgets! Lush is great and let me know your favourite lush products!

Jeff Buckley - Lover, You Should've Come Over



Looking out the door I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
And maybe i'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so you never know

Broken down and hungry for your love but no way to feed it
Where are you tonight, child you know how much i need it
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run

Sometimes a man gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that really, he has no-one

So I'll wait for you..... and I'll burn
Will i ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn

Oh lover, you should've come over
'cause it's not too late

Lonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that won't ever come

It's never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when i slept so soft against her
It's never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over, she's the tear that hangs inside my song forever

Well maybe I'm just too young
To keep good love from going wrong

Oh.... lover, you should've come over
'cause it's not too late

Well I feel too young to hold on
And I'm much too old to break free and run
Too deaf, dumb, and blind to see the damage I've done

Sweet lover, you should've come over
Oh, love well I'm waiting for you

Lover, you should've come over
Cause it's not too late........

Sliding around the mud/poo outside chicken huts!!! Although I laugh at everybody else doing the same
