Beauty Battle: Battle of the Lip Scrubs!

It's battle of the lip scrubs! It's Lush's SANTA'S Lip Scrub VS. ELF's Lip Exfoliator. Let's see the pros of each product...

ELF Lip Exfoliator:

• Gets rid of dry lips
• Perfect for using before applying lipstick
• Smells amazing (A sort of sweet, cocoa/sugar smell)
• Moisturises at the same time
• Handy lipstick shape for easy application
• Cheap price (£3.75)
• Expensive looking packaging

Lush Lip Scrub:

• Gets rid of dry lips
• Perfect for using before applying lipstick
• Even more amazing smell (Cola flavour)
• Small pot which can be easily put in your bag
• Tastes really nice
• Gives your lips a hint of colour (Slight red)
• This was originally £5.50 (Like the other lip scrubs in the original line) but this was in the sale for £2.25
• Cute packaging

And the winner is...

The Lush Lip Scrub! This may be a little bit more expensive, but it never fails me! Tastes lovely, no harmful chemicals, all natural, great packaging and gives the lips a lovely colour! Try one of the Lush lip scrubs and the ELF Lip Exfoliators to be rid of that annoying dry skin this Winter! 

Give them a try!

Beauty Bite: My Most Recent Purchases!

So this is kind of a mini haul which I've decided to name 'My most recent purchases'

As you can see, I've bought 4 things recently that I feel that the beauty blogging world needs to know about!

 The Body Shop had a sale and I have a weakness for that place. This is the 'Vineyard Peach' body butter which I believe originally was £13 but when I bought it, it was £5! Everyone knows how amazing these body butters are. They're super moisturing, good value for money and most importantly, it doesn't react with my sensitive skin! The smell of this is actually gorgeous, I wish I picked up more than one! I literally cannot stop smelling it or applying it. Too good!

So for those of you who have already read my review, you know how I feel about this product! It's Lush's 'No Drought' dry shampoo. Essentially, it's one of the best purchases I've ever made in my opinion.

 As I've already mentioned, I have very sensitive skin. In fact, recently I haven't been able to use most shower gels which is quite odd. I've unfortunately been reacting to them so I thought where else better to go to get shower gel that I won't react to than The Body Shop! This is the strawberry shower gel which is soap-free! So for all you fellow sensitive skin folks, this is definitely okay for you to use! I've tried and tested it! I feel refreshed after using it and it smells amazing. My flatmates love it so much they've been trying to steal it to use themselves as it smells so nice. This cost me £4 :)

 Now, I've not tried the original Kate Moss lipsticks as I can't quite find a shade in the collection that I think would suit me. However, I came across her matte collection in partnership with Rimmel London. I purchased the shade '101' which is an everyday natural nude/pink shade. On my skin tone it comes out rather pink but I believe on other people it comes out more of a nude colour. This is fantastic! It's long lasting, doesn't dry out your lips, is the perfect everyday colour and is such a reasonable price. However, I will say I'm on the fence about the smell. It has sort of a fruity berry smell but I'm not overly keen on it. I will be doing a full review on this soon so stay tuned for a review!

If you have given these a try or want to, let me know what you think in the comments below! I'll reply and I won't bite ;)
