LUSH Christmas 2017 – Gift Guide

12 / 22 / 172 / 26 / 18

LUSH Christmas 2017!

I know it’s a little late for this to be a LUSH Christmas gift guide but it’s never too late to get in the festive spirit…(well I think this could still work as an awesome last minute gift because who could ever not love LUSH products as a gift).

My LUSH Christmas haul

I am always over  the moon for the Lush Christmas collection, mainly for Rose jam and Snow fairy but this year I decided to get some of my old time favourites and some newbies for me.

Products I have purchased to use over the festive season:

Rose Jam Shower Gel

Rose Jam is quintessentially the perfect shower gel for the festive season. It’s floral fragrance and silky smooth texture is destined to leave you feeling indulgent and relaxed.

The Magic of Christmas Bubble Bar

The aroma of this bar is magical, leaves you with a warm fuzzy feeling. It reminds me of  spicy mulled wine that we enjoyed on the streets of Europe in winter.This bar is a perfect stocking filler. I enjoy it for a foot soak as I tend to be water conscious and it leaves your home smelling like Christmas.

Christmas Golden Wonder Bath Bomb

This bath bomb is not only beautiful, it smells fresh and contains cognac oil. Perfect for a stocking filler. I plan on using it for an ever needed relaxing foot soak followed by a foot massage by my husband. I simply love watching bath bombs fizz up and release its gorgeous colours and scents.

Snow fairy naked body conditioner & Shampoo

These help me meet my festive holiday shower goals. I am usually at the seaside over the festive season which means hot humid days and beach strained hair. No one wants to lather themselves with lotions to feel greasy and this naked body conditioner moisturises your skin without the greasy feeling and leaves it smelling like candy floss with an elegant shimmer.

The shampoo bar is perfect for hair that tends to be over ashes drying out the scalp.I wash my hair after every trip to the beach which leaves the scalp dry. This bar is perfect for a dry scalp.

Sleepy body lotion

This lotion has a beautiful hue and scent of lavender. It leaves me perfectly soft, smooth and ready for a sweet nights sleep. A fabulous Chrsitmas gift for someone that lives a fast paced lifestyle.

Happy festive shopping!

Power Rangers Ninja Steel Toys Giveaway & Review

12 / 5 / 172 / 26 / 18

Why I love action toys?

Imaginary play is a critical part of a child’s development. Action figures generally do not respond and this allows  children to use their memories from the TV shows and imagination to create a game through play either by themselves or in a group.  A solo game encourages confidence together with learning comfort in their own skin, while a group enacted game encourages teamwork and negotiating skills from a young age. Both have benefits and set a child up for emotional growth.

My friend’s sons were the perfect age to share the Power Ranger Ninja Steel Toys given to me by  Prima Toys to review. I received the following toys from Prima Toys:

POWER RANGERS NINJA STEEL 30CM FIGURE & POWER RANGERS NINJA STEEL TRAINING GEAR

The children were extremely thrilled by the toys and even slept with them, probably teaching them the feeling of protection. They enjoyed playing with them and the toys are of good quality making them withstand very active play. The toys are well priced for the size and detailed patterns.

I did martial arts for 11 years so you can imagine the excitement  with every episode of the Power Rangers aired when I was a kid. I believed I was a certified ninja. Luckily these days, the excitement and learning about martial arts and ninjas spans beyond TV shows in the form of toys to encourage activity and exploration.

Prima Toys brings you Power Ranger Ninja Steel toys in stores!

Chiquita Patrizi, spokesperson for Prima Toys says that playing with action figures is a great way for children to use their imagination and built their imaginative skills. “Figures such as Power Rangers Ninja Steel provide the opportunity for children to create stories and situations. By doing this, they are honing their communications skills, developing speech and building a vocabulary. This type of play is also a lot of fun!” explains Patrizi.

Playing with action figures can also help kids learn the difference between good and bad, as there are usually heroes and villains involved.  This provides the opportunity to develop skills that can help in real life social scenarios.
