"Cosmetics, much like people, make their first impressions in many different ways. Some products have beautiful fragrances, eye-catching designs or vivid colours, others get noticed through well-thought out packaging, celebrity endorsements and word of mouth." Credit to Jen's blog "All Things Lush"
This product has more than one thing going for it. It''s an adorable bunny with the shared fragrance of Rockstar Soap (vanilla candy) that permeates whichever room it's in, and has the Lush name behind it. Lush brought out the "Bunny Bubble Bar" for it's Easter line (no longer available, sorry). It took me so long to finally get to trying it, so I can only just now post this review.
Bubble bars are to add scented bubbles to your bath. This bubble bar is unique in that it has a bath melt in the middle of it, an essential oil packed melt to make your bath moisturizing. Since only it's outer layer is bubble bar, using half of it is probably the best for getting an actual bubble bath.
The pink layer inside turns your bath pink and is filled with blue cornflower petals.Blue cornflower petals are used as an astringent, so it's calming for your skin.
I'd say the smell and cuteness is enough to sell me. It's a reoccurring product for Lush's Easter Range, so it'll most likely come back again next year. The Comforter bubble bar is a comparable option for all year round. Lushies have found a billion ways to use bubble bars. I usually like to split mine into thirds,then I them in the toes from a pair of old nylon stockings to get rid of fall out and hang them under the tap.

Review: Urban Decay Eyeshadow-Mary Jane
When I look into rating an eye shadow, the main thing I consider would be how user friendly it is. If I can't use it with ease, it's not likely to pass my test. Urban Decay eye shadows are preeetty high end. $18 per pot gives me high expectations. This beautiful sparkly, gunmetal shadow, with an undertone of blue, has me split down the middle.
Along with the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer , or any primer, this shadow is unbreakable. It most likely will outlast the rest of your makeup. All Urban Decay shadows have superior pigmentation (when used with a wet brush, the pigmentation is intensified and the glitter turns the shadow metallic). That's a 50/50 quality. The sparkles tend to create an incredible amount of fallout that brings the pigmentation with it. Then you're stuck with dark blueish shadow under your eyes that makes you look sickly. If you work at it for a little, it'll blend away. This product blends flawlessly by the way.
The color is almost worth the having to manipulate the shadow. I would say that for the entire line of shadows though. The justification is all up to you.
