Lush Bath Bombs

A few weeks ago, i splurged on a fun spa day!  After the spa, i indulged in a little retail therapy at The Mall at Short Hills here in NJ.  If you're familiar with the area, you know this mall is the bomb!  Speaking of bombs, i stopped at the Lush store because after reading lots of awesome reviews, i needed to check them out for myself!  The store was quite fragrant and i was immediately overwhelmed with every kind of bath necessity one can possibly dream of! I quickly composed myself and opted to simply focus this shopping trip on Lush's famous bath bombs.  I will visit again for some other products that peeked my interest... specifically their shampoo/conditioner bars!

I'll admit, i have a jacuzzi tub that I've only used for actual relaxing baths a hand full of times.  I just never seem to find the time to indulge in a relaxing soak.  Now that i have these gorgeous bathing beauties, i plan on making the time!  So far, I've used the Golden Slumbers Bath Bomb... a relaxing lavender bath to promote sweeter dreams!  After all the craziness that has been my life lately, this momma, as my little girls call me, can certainly use a little relaxation and sweeter dreams for sure!  I loved this bath bomb... it smelled incredible and made my overall bath experience a beautifully relaxing one!  No complaints here!  Can't wait to try the other two!  I almost feel as though the flower bath bomb is too pretty to use!  Oh and BTW, Mother's day is fast approaching... i'm thinking these make excellent Mother's Day gifts for the special mommy in your life!

So on another note, today is a big day.  At 9am Eastern Time, we find out if i made it to week three of ALLURE'S BEAUTY BLOGGER OF THE YEAR AWARDS!   If i made it through, you'll get to view my new challenge called "Lazy Beauty Essentials".  If not.... you'll probably find me sobbing somewhere!  But now worries, after my pity party, i'll be back for more FMM fun!  OK fingers crossed!
