Purchase: finally getting it online!

My last purchase I really need to get it online and while it was ordered with the app there was no way to request samples so seconds after purchase I emailed --yet with the cheaper method (I'm not gonna take that again felt like it took ages and no verification where it was but once every few days!) they claimed was sent out too fast I don't think so  but that's me 


Over a hundred dollars as per norm for me 


When it came in the kit had bombs discoloured and one had dust all over I had to wash everything off and waste dust --I had suggested they wrap bombs but I guess they think it "wasn't packed well enough" because wrapping the bombs is so hard to do? 


And on to the products note: my scale is set at metric right now 



Here's the soap 


Both of the ladybug bubble bars were exact weight which was oz and with wrapping which has weight 



Rub solid --different to use and can get dried superglue from hands which can be a trick 


I needed my conditioner! 


You can kinda see the pink on this butterball from the mess 


Both golden eggs are underweight 


The culprit from the pink mess in my kit 





A really pink Sakura 


Some plant/seed paper that came with my pack 


Soap sample to me they are way too small to use 




The container/reason I got the giftset 


It's insert 


And the backside 


Sample examples and showing some of what was in the set--dream cream and Aegean are both store samples charming was from online (and I'm impressed by charming wouldn't have gotten it normally) 


Then all 3 soaps next to eachouther (samples)

Bomb class


I wanted to wait till I'd tested mine myself but went to a greenfield library "adult crafts" where we made bath bombs 

The report I heard was that it had too much oil in and personally I'd have mixed the colors with the oil/scent not the baking soda mix 

That being said its another method to try and play with I'll get my own recepie worked out yet! Will just take me time because I wanna get my room redone first and that itself will take me 50 years so it feels

Lucky purchase

I know I haven't updated much lately the winter has been so stupid and similarly lush has been annoying but we will see what happens my mind is on Spring/season and I'm trying yet again to redo my room have an air bed in there now that I'm sleeping on with the dogs the state isn't the best but things are very slowly getting somewhere and I have an IKEA dresser I plan on turning into storage has a nice countertop type top on it 

So 2? Days ago I was at a goodwill in Madison and I found a round tin that I know as lush had some weight to it too 


The tin (I took the tag off) it has 


Rose jam (never used) rub rub solid (same) and gorgeous (ditto) 

It's missing: packaging and inserts as well as: Dream cream and Snowcake (which by googling I have 4 of!) 

These are all brand new the seal is still on the rose jam Georgus looks untouched (a quarter missing but at times that's normal when lush under fills) and rub rub is completely sealed 

Moral: keep you're eyes open you never know what you'll find!

Another mess

So a while ago while I was in Madison I decided to pick up some face masks some odd stuff happened 

I was told they get new once a month (but the face masks only last 3 weeks? And most stores get those every week) and my concern over them being half expired was totally blown off 

Previously I've found lush has a tendency to overdo or give you more then you think you're paying for which is all fine and dandy till you get something that's just filled and it's weight is exact when many more are over its even worse when you get new stuff and that's under "but we're handmade so there will be variances" yea? Then teach you're people how to "tare" on those "very precise scales" y'all have cause if my cheap 20 buck one matches the post office it's "good enough" but if they'd rather fight when I only want what I've paid for 

So the purchase was something like this 


Brazened honey tare was off by 3G as one I based from didn't have stickers so this was short 6g 


Again tare didn't have stickers so this was actually short 3G --this is oatfix got it cause the one I make clogs up the tub too much BUT so does my long hair and cutting it is never mentioned 


Expry dates on them 


This was my tare like I said no stickers and the outher 2 look a little empty comparing to some of my products 


And there's the rest of the purchase --I haven't had a chance to test anything yet tho but was looking for a conditioner later on and a celebrate like lotion for my hands that get truly terrible from working in a resturant (like celebrate cause it works and don't hurt)

The purchase/mess


Here's what the tracking said: before it was even in ups system ups said it would be here between noon and 4 so I waited at home to try to catch it when it came and a big suprise! It was nearly 2 hours late! So I wasted the time waiting for it which is annoying to me 


This was the purchase (it came in a few days ago but I've been busy so I'm only now getting to doing this) 


The wrapping for the "joy to the world" package


Outside of the card


Inside the card --I have tested love and light and it seems like powdery once it dries it also seems to burn my hands more then outher lotions (dry hands common working at a resturant) 


Contents of the box wrapping paper is kinda thick/nice 


Roses all the way soap 


Rainbow fun personally I think pink and purple should be swapped around but that's just me --I also noted it was softer then most tend to be but I've heard that's cause it's fresh 


Front of package 


Lom look at the bottles closely --I loved the little one I had while someone decided it was worthless and used half of it in 2 uses! So I had to pay more to replace! 


Another "closer look" shot 


Perhaps easyier to see? 


Guardian of the forest bomb that I think smells great! I can't wait to try! 


Unicorn horn --I noticed that when I tryied to make it more round it crumbled so it's powder in a ziplock now but it smells kinda like snow fairy to me 


Et fun I used my outher one with our gym bags so we would have something to wash with if we needed to 


Faces 


And colours 


Aramaco it's actually 2x as thick as I expected! So I'll likely get 4 chunks from it for the gym! 


Rehab shampoo --I got 3 uses from the sample I had so I imagine this will last as well 


Teo --my top choice in deordant! Some even know me for its smell oddly enough 


Seanick shampoo bar 


Montablano shampoo bar 


And the samples I requested "dirty toothy tabs a shaving cream and a couple things they like" I got 2 soaps charming and dirty shaving cream (it it lasts more then one use I may get more have to see how it works for me or not) 

We'll have fun y'all!
