This was a masculine aromatic Caribbean turquoise bath. Kind of like bathing in tea except, it’s seaweed that’s floating in the water, not loose dried tea leaves. I always want to try something at least once before forming an opinion on it. As much as I enjoyed this bath, it’s not a favorite only because …
Lush Review: Happy Birthday Bath Cocktail
I admired this sweet citrus floral bath with its Fanta-like scent (the culmination of Hot Java BB and Happy Birthday BB) and its beautiful deep orange color. This bath was started very late at night but I needed to decompress from our recent travels (to visit with family) and a few crazy moments I had …
Lush Review: Karma Bath Cocktail
Another great bath cocktail. I felt a bit more relaxed since I had the luxury of time on a quiet mid-day/early evening. This citrusy bath is very sweet; think Trix cereal and Tang powder mix. Many times I wash my hair in the shower afterwards so I may not get the full benefits of the …
Lush Review: Nostalgic Bath Cocktail
Sometimes I feel like Des Esseintes, Joris-Karl Huymans’ main character in Against Nature, striving to create a small world of Lush decadence whenever I can… Tonight’s bath cocktail was white and frothy with a delicate fresh scent, reminding me of 7UP and Sprite soda pops which I would gladly consume during those boring adult dinner …
Lush Review: Candy Sweet Orange Bath Cocktail
This one is from last night. An uplifting sweet and floral mix. A really fun feminine bath. Who could ask for more? 1 Hot Java Bath Ballistic: I messaged a Lush guru regarding her big order from Lush England. She claimed the shipping wasn’t too bad but I beg to differ. This is the last …

Remember to exfoliate before you …
Lush Review: Candy Sweet Pink Bath Cocktail ;)
I definitely enjoyed my candy sweet themed Lush bath. The water turned a pretty hot pink. I suspect had I used the pink Easter egg instead of the yellow, the water would have been a more vibrant pink. To re-create my bath, please use the following products: 1/2 The Comforter Bubble Bar: Sweetart scented. I …
Lush Review: Candy Sweet Yellow Bath Cocktail
A bath cocktail is simply as you would have guessed, when multiple products are used to enhance a lux bath or to create a desired bath theme e.g. candy-scented, floral, honey-scented. You get the idea… Recently I used the following products in mine: 1/8 of Happy Easter-The Yellow One (shell): Fast fizzing action, sweet candy …
Beauty Rescue Lounge
This seems like a relatively new brand to me. I’m all for trying new products so I ordered minis of BRL’s exfoliating cleansers at a Hautelook sale. I’m featuring the brand’s candle line in this blog for now. *Photocredit: Beauty Rescue Lounge
Amore Pacific Spa in Soho NY
I saw an article about Amore Pacific Spa in Daily Candy in August 2003. At that time I only knew of Bliss Spa in Soho, NY and was unable to get an appointment at the time I would have preferred. I’ve tried several different spas since Amore and still think it’s the best. I only …
