There are endless products to choose from, I felt like a kid in a sweet show when picking mine! I really was spoilt for choice, but I finally opted for the Fresh Berry Blaster (which looks like a bowl of ice cream and smells just like Raspberry Ripple), a selection on little Bath Creamers and Mallows which turn your tub into a creamy, nourishing, sweetly-scented skin treatment, as well a pot of Piña Colada-scented Pout Polish Lip Scrub, and a bar of rather breath-taking and artistic-looking soap.

You can search for your nearest stockist by using the "Find a Retailer" option on the Bomb Cosmetics website (mine is only located five minutes from my house, lucky me!), or you can simply order online. You'll find all their produce on their website.
Why not start your day with the invigorating scent of the Pineapple Expressed Bath Blaster? It's sure to make you feel refreshed and wide awake. Or, to unwind after a stressful day's work, try the Lavender Bath Creamer. It's infused with lavender oil and rolled in dry lavender, perfect for a tranquil, relaxing bath to bring about calm (perfect for bedtime). If you fancy a sweet treat, immerse yourself in the delicious fragrance o­­­­f the Cherry Pie Bath Mallow - it's an indulgent delight minus the guilt and calories! It even looks like a little cup cake. A time when many of us feel we need to relax both the mind and body is after a gym

 session. The Lime Blossom And Lavender Brulee delivers an invigorating citrus scent and a refreshing bathing sensation, perfect for soothing the muscles and reviving the senses after a hard work out. Plus, one Bath Brulee can be used six times, so you needn't feel like reserving it for that "one special bath".


Of course, relaxing in a steaming hot bath isn't just for us ladies. And, Gents, Bomb Cosmetics have got you covered. ­­­­Check out the Man Grenade Blaster, which releases an explosive rush of black pepper and rosemary oil as it fizzes. Or, if you're more of a "shower man", your perfect purchase has to be the Reef Reviver Shower Soap. The solid shower soaps last ages, and this one is fragranced with masculine eucalyptus and stimulating spearmint.

Bomb Cosmetics are sure to make an impact when it comes to the design of their products. Expect serious eye-candy when browsing their bath time delights, especially the Soap Slices, which really are a sight to savor. I couldn't resit getting my hands on the stunning Adventures In Eden Soap, it's reminiscent of slices of fruit encased  in a block of jelly! Don't think that these luxury goodies will break the bank, though. All of the Bath Mallows are priced at £2.24, and the Bath Blaster prices peak at £2.29. Plus, almost all of the products are not for just one use. The Handmade Soap Slices last what seems like forever, and, as previously mentioned, the Bath Brulees can be used six times and only cost £3.49 each.

Other products from Bomb Cosmetics include Body Scrubs, Shower Gels, Hair care, Home Fragrances, Lip Care, Massage Bars... the list is endless. Be sure to head over to their website to see their full range.

Bomb Cosmetics; Locally produced, handmade, natural ingredients, and an extensive range of products, all of which nourish the body and uplift soul. Expect indulgence on a budget, without compromising on results. I'm impressed (and addicted).

Avon Plump Pout Lip Gloss; 4 shades; review + photos

For many years I never wore lip gloss, I was always a "lipstick only" girl, but this is the wonder-product that converted me.
Trust me, tiger, it's fabulous.

"A gorgeous gloss that inflates lips to maximum fullness and enhances your natural lip colour. Feels lusciously moist and tingly fresh. Dermatologist tested." - Avonshop.co.uk

The consensus is that we find full lips very desirable. Plumping lip products are everywhere, and I bet the vast majority of us have several in our make up bags. Luckily, I'm blessed with naturally full lips, so this product doesn't make my lips appear larger. However, it does make the lip surface appear more even.
Like most other lip-plumping products, this gloss gives a "tingling" sensation as it's working, and it has an invigorating minty-fresh scent to match! I think it feels and smells very pleasant and refreshing, unlike some similar products such as Too Faced Lip Injection, which I find gives a harsher sensation.
The consistency is bang-on perfect. It's quite thick, so it holds on to the lips well and provides great staying-power, but it has zero stickiness. It's also ultra-moisturising, so my lips look healthy feel kissably-soft all day!
The lid contains an application wand tipped with a lip brush. It holds the product well and allows for easy, precise application. I like to apply 2 - 3 coats for maximum coverage.

Listed below are four of the shades currently available + photos and descriptions. Click the images to enlarge...

Plumping Pearl; Gives the lips an elegant pearly shine, with tiny iridescent flecks of shimmer. This subtle shade goes with all colours, and it's perfect for anytime, anywhere. It's a great go-to lip colour, especially if you're in a rush! See below for 2nd image (end of blog).

Pink Pucker; This is a soft, nude pink shade with a pearly shimmering finish. Again, this gloss goes with everything, so it's a perfect all-round lip colour. Looks nothing like it does on the models in the Avon brochure photos, though! See below for 2nd image (end of blog).

Rose Pucker; An earthy "twig" red. Very sexy and sophisticated. Great for day and night. This shade is perfect for Autumn. This one is my favorite of the four shades, I can't get enough of it! See below for 2nd image (end of blog).












Plumpaccino; The natural bronze hue combined with the cool, tingly freshness reminds my of iced coffee! You can rock this shade all year round, but it would look fab teamed with a golden tan, so keep it in mind for the Summer!

Image - below; Another snap of myself. In this one I'm wearing Avon Plump Pout Lip Gloss in "Rose Pucker". I look happy, probably because I was just about to go to Coffee#1 - their Double Macchiatos are rude.
