Yummy but not edible..

I was never the biggest fan of Lush. Their soaps were never really my kind of taste in terms of smell. I like juicy fruity bakey things.. And since I was 13, I've been addicted to lipsmackers. I can't leave the house without one, and if I forget to do so...it's not good. I'll find one from someone else.

When Maryam and I went on our romantic birthday getaway to Paris, we went a bit nuts in Sephora. We went to the sephora body/bath section and pretty much shoved everything in front of us into the tiny black cloth lined baskets. All their products were fantastic including the scrubs, body butters, body lotions, shower gels and perfumes..so pretty much everything. And they smell so delicious...smells good enough to eat, but I won't. The flavours/scents include vanilla creme brule, pineapple grenadine, strawberry raspberry, coconut, etc. These are some of them..

Sephora opened in Kuwait last summer, but it's not as big as the ones in Paris or some of the ones in the States. They should definitely open one in Ireland.. I'm waiting for you Sephora people.

Another delicious buy was also from Sephora, but it was a product of Philosophy. I bought this Birthday trio pack in DC last Easter with Esra, and I still haven't finished the bottles. It came in a trio of Vanilla birthday cake, Strawberry ice cream, and Chocolate frosting. Droooool. Another plus is that they can be used as bubble bath, shower gel and shampoo. You should take a look at their Valentine's day gift suggestions..... nom nom nom.

On another Etsy search, I found the seller LoveLeeSoaps who sells extremely lovely looking soaps. Fu and I were looking at her shops ooohing and aaahing at every product we click on. One of my favorite looking ones are the popcorn mini soaps, and this is her description of it.. "These soaps are ready to pop into your soap dish! They are made with moisturizing shea butter and can be used for both bath time and washing hands. These soaps don't smell like your usual popcorn though, they have the fun scent of cotton candy added.."

Enjoy your next tasty shower my dears..
