LUSH Christmas Bathtime Favourites

So yesterday I was in Highpoint Shopping Centre and I walked past LUSH and couldn't help but go in and check out what bath bombs they had in stock. I  usually go in an buy one or two at a time, but when I got in there I found they had load of limited edition christmas ones!! 
And because I couldn't decide on what ones to buy the lady suggested I buy the gift box 'Christmas Bathtime Favourites' which had most of their festive collection in it, so….. $60 later thats exactly what I brought. 


It smells so good and the box is so pretty!

So in it you get 10 different bath bombs, some are new and others come back every year before christmas, of the 10 I have only used 2 of them before which are the 'Avobath Bath Ballistic' and the 'Golden Wonder Bath Ballistic' which I loved! 





Golden Wonder Bath Ballistic:
Unwrap your Christmas spirit, with stimulating sweet orange and lime oils.

This is the one I used last year and loved it! Its covered in a gold shimmer powder and its filled with crazy bright colours inside which makes the water look amazing and it smells amazing!

Shoot For The Stars Bath Ballistic:
A magnificent bath bomb with our Honey I Washed The Kids fragrance.

Both ladies working in the shop at the time told me at different times how good this one was, it was both of their favourites. They said it is filled with a silver shimmer powder and little glitter stars. This will be the first one I will use for sure.

So White Bath Ballistic:
For the fairest bath of them all, delicate rose and uplifting bergamot for when you need a moment of calm.

In Zoella's recent Lush Haul she raved about this one, and it smells wonderful!

Cinders Bath Ballistic:
Be transported to the fireside with warming cinnamon leaf oil and crackling popping candy.

Im excited to try this one and see how it acts in the water, obviously its not edible popping candy but I am curious to see if it reacts similar to popping candy when put in the bath.

Father Christmas Bath Ballistic:
Refreshing mandarin oil provides plenty of festive bath time cheer.

This will be the one I will use on christmas eve. It sounds and smells like the best addition to the bath just before christmas.

Luxury Lush Pud Bath Ballistic:
Relaxing and comforting lavender scented pud, perfect for a bedtime bath.

Im not to sure how this one will go, I'm not the biggest fan of lavender, actually I hate the smell of lavender, although it doesn't smell to strongly of lavender I'm just hoping that once it hits the water it docent explode with a lavender smell, but I have a feeling that the water is going to look amazing with all the colours.

Avobath Bath Ballistic:
Like a reviving, lemongrass spa bath, complete with an avocado and olive oil massage - almost.

This is also one I have used before, this one is available at LUSH all year round and great for any day, so fresh and relaxing.

Snowman Bath Ballistic:
Let this big softy moisturise and nourish you with creamy cocoa butter.

The lady in the store said that after using this little guy your skin will feel amazing because of the cocoa butter in it. I am a big fan of cocoa butter so I have a feeling I'm going to love this one.

Bombardino Bath Ballistic:
A softening lemon cheesecake scented bomb, for pure Alpine indulgence. 

This was by far the best smelling one, I was going to buy it regardless of it being in the box or not, it smells so amazing, it has a really creamy scent and it is apparently based on a european christmas drink. If this is true I want to try the drink!

Think Pink Bath Ballistic:
Bathe in sweet, fragrant pinkness with an explosion of confetti hearts.

And this is the last one in the box, I'm pretty sure this is another one you can get all year round in LUSH, it smells really sweet which I love, and judging by its colour the bath is going to be pretty amazing!


Well that is all from me today, I hope you have enjoyed this post.
Have a wonderful Christmas with friends and family :)

TRIVA NIGHT.

So last night Myself and a few others attended the annual local Pre-School trivia night which we have been to every year for the past 4 years. And once again, it was a fantastic evening.

We didn't win, but we didn't lose either, so we technically can't complain because we didn't come last. Plus for some strange reason I had a lot of luck last night, but I'm not complaining because I won a few prizes :) 

I came out of the night feeling a little smarter, 2 Vouchers, a 1L Bottle of Midori and a Beautiful candle richer! #HappyDays 


('Lime Twist' found here: http://www.saltcitycandle.com )

They also had quite a few different activities to participate in, which was fun and got the whole table involved :) 

One was you had to suck ping pong balls up with a straw and move them from one table to another (I was terrible at it) we lost that one.. sorry guys!

There was also another activity where we were given some rolls of toilet paper and sticky tape, we then had to make a wedding dress out of it. So I was the mannequin for our table, which was fun, I had to stand there while everyone covered me in toilet paper! :) 



We then had to model the thing where the judges would then vote one who's was the best. 


But unfortunately we lost that challenge as well. there were some pretty creative dress though I must say.

But all in all it was a fantastic evening with friends and family, and it was also great knowing that we were supporting and raising money for local people and families, and I encourage people to get out there when a local organisation is putting on a fundraiser and get involved. Not only does it help them out but it is also quite a lot of fun! :)

MIDNIGHT MEMORIES!!



Ok, So if you are not a One Direction fan or you are and have been hiding under a rock for the last couple of hours you won't know that their new album which was due to come out on November 25th had been leaked earlier today. And if you are a mad One Direction Fan then you are fully aware of what has happened. 

First off I would just like to say that I am shattered for the guys because everything they ever seem to release always manages to get leaked before the release date, and today a week out from their highly anticipated 3rd album release, the album has fallen into the hands of us Directioners.. and can I just say, we honestly couldn't be happier! 

Twitter was sent into melt down with the fans going crazy as the first song to be leaked was the title track 'Midnight Memories' which is probably the Heaviest/Rock orientated song they have ever released, but most of the fans had great things to say about it. After the first song was leaked it was literally minutes before 'Happily' was leaked and then before you could finish listening to the second song the whole album was out there, all over tumblr and twitter. 

Can I just quickly applaud the guys on what a fantastic album it is, their sound has developed so much since the last album and the variety on this album between tracks is wonderful! This album is much more mature it terms of sound and lyrically, and personally what I have heard I have loved. 

I can't wait to have it on my iTunes as I have pre-ordered the Deluxe album through the iTunes store which will be released world wide on November 25th. Until then I will have it on repeat through the tumblr links. 

If you have heard any of the new songs, comment your favourite one below.

My Welcoming.

Greetings All,

This is my welcome post to this wonderful site and to you wonderful people.
I'm going to apologise in advance as I was terrible at english in school so my spelling and puncuation will probably be quite dreadful but I am going to give it a go.

My name is Rhianna and I am a 21yr old from Australia.

I am currently working in the hospitality industry so I tend to have a lot of free time during the day and I have been trying to find something that could keep me occupied throughout the day, thats where I came up with the bright idea of creating this Blog.. 
Hopefully it's a great idea! :)

I am a qualified Photographer but as of late I have not done much with it, but I'm hoping that having this blog will draw it out of me. I love the idea of a blog, it gives you the opportunity to be able to document your life through images and writing while creating something others can experience as well.

On my 19th Birthday I decided that I would do the 365 day challenge on Instagram, all I could and would post was 1 photo a day for a whole year. I did it a little different to the normal challenge, where I got the idea off a Skateboarder that goes by the name of Steve Berra, where the photo was a portrait of himself with different people or things as the background. 

The 1st photo on my 19th Birthday.

It took me a couple of weeks to get used to doing it (I would forget to do it and then realise just before I fell asleep.) But once I got the hang of it I really enjoyed doing it everyday, I was always trying to find something or someone new and exciting to be in the background, it challenged me to get creative and to try different shots. When the challenge was coming to an end I was trying to think of something new I could do for the next 12 months after this little project finished, I was actually pretty sad when it was over, I didn't know what to do with myself, it felt weird posting normal photos in Instagram rather then the 'selfie' which I had been posting everyday for the last year. 

and the last photo I took for the challenge..

I have been trying to find something to do which would document my life and certain days and events that were important/special to me as well as those random thoughts you get in moments of pure boredom that you just want to speak about to see if others ever think the same thought or weather you are just crazy.. and I think this could be the place. 

I all hope you have a wonderful day, I look forward to whats going to happen next.

We should do this again sometime. 

xo.
