My Christmas Gift Haul 2023

Hello

We spent Christmas at my sister's again, and as always the dinner was amazing. I was in charge of the baked good as usual and I made the usual lemon drizzle cake, as well as a lemon cheesecake and for the first time I made a yule log.

From the end of October, right up to Christmas week, I was working nights, which was a nice change. I really enjoyed it. I'm now on my countdown to seeing Eric Nam and I can't wait to see who else could be heading to the UK to perform.

Firstly from my brother Michael, sister-in-law Stacey and their kids, I got Harry Potter make-up brushes. I've had these brushes before and I love them. I still use the ones I got in the past, so I can't wait to switch between them, which will make cleaning them a lot easier.



Next from my friend Nichola, her husband Dave and their daughter Grace. I got bath goods and an amazon voucher. I used my voucher towards some new pans. The Christmas bath fizzers are really cute. I can't wait to use them. I also can't wait to use the shower gels because I can tell they're going to smell really nice.


From my friend Mary-Kate, I got some Sailor Moon shot glasses. Which have become my go to Soju glasses. I adore sailor moon and these have been on my to buy list for quite a while.


From my friend Clare, her other half Lee and their kids, I got this amazing Stray Kids tumbler. I absolutely love it, I'm hoping Stray Kids come to the UK this year, and if they do, they will definitely be making the journey to see them with me. I love that I can use it for either hot or cold drinks.


Next from my nephew Owen and friend Alicia, I got this Spa Secrets facial set. I look forward to using this, as it's perfect for when I feel like giving myself a spa day and some down time.



From my nephew Daniel, I got this Lush Little Snow Fairy gift box. I absolutely love Snow Fairy, so I will definitely love using these products.


Next I got this Soap & Glory hands and feet set, from my sisters dogs. I tend to dog sit 2 of her dogs for her a lot, so much so my house has become their 2nd/holiday home. I love Soap & Glory's hand and feet products, they always moisturise my hands and feet and I swear by their heel genius.



From my sister and her husband Bob, I got some cute bed socks and this No.7 Shimmer & Glow make-up set. I can't wait to play around with the make-up. But I have worn the socks, they were really comfy and keep my feet nice and warm.


Next from my mum and her other half Dave, I got £60, which will be going towards any K-pop concert tickets.




Next from Skye, I got this The Nightmare Before Christmas book, that is part of my reading challenge. I also got this Edward Elric POP! figure. I love Fullmetal Alchemist, so I loved receiving this.


Lastly from my dad and his wife Alison, I got Volume 7 of Heaven Official's Blessing, some chocolates and a surprise envelope with £350, which will be going towards K-pop concert tickets. I'm hoping ATEEZ and Stray Kids are coming over so it's being kept for the possibility of getting tickets to see them. With Volume 7 of Heaven Official's Blessing, I've now completed the novel series, so I can't wait to finish reading the rest of them and giving them a special place on my bookcase.

Well that brings me to the end of my Christmas Gift Haul, I loved all my gifts and felt insanely grateful for them all, especially the money as it means I won't need to stress to much when it comes to trying to get tickets.
I always appreciate the time and effort my friends and family put into getting gifts for me.

Did you get some presents from family and friends that's perfect for you?
Let me know in the comments below.

see you soon!

Today's Lush post is about the Ghostie Bath Bomb.


The ingredients for this bath bomb include Popping Candy, Lemongrass Oil, Sicilian Lemon Oil and Persian Lime Oil.

"Lower into your bathwater and Ghostie will put on a show for you whilst Lemongrass, Sicilian  Lemon and Persian Lime Oils lift your spirits."










I loved the colours of this bath bomb, it not only made me want to buy it, but it also made me eager to use it.
It was a really pretty as the bath bomb fizzed away, releasing all the colours. It changed the bathwater into a gorgeous purple, which pictures don't do it justice.
It smelt absolutely gorgeous and left my skin feeling soft, moisturised and refreshed, as well as leaving me feel relaxed.

Sadly the Ghostie Bath Bomb is no longer available, but I'm hoping they bring it out again next Halloween, and if they do, I think I may stock up.

See you soon!

Lush: Lucky Cat

Today's Lush post is the Lucky Cat Bubble Bar.


The ingredients for this bubble bar include Jasmine Absolute, Neroli Oil, Ylang Ylang Oil and Guar Gum.

"You'll be feeling fur-nastically fortunate after soaking in a bed of cheerful Neroli bubbles, thanks to this tide-turning feline. Crumble under running water to create seriously poppable mounds of joy."









I loved the colour of this bubble bar, I thought it had the right amount of glitter, so it didn't leave you or the bath completely covered.
I loved how easily it crumbled in and under the water and I loved how quickly and foamy it formed bubbles.
I loved the colour it changed the water, I was expecting a pink, but it went to a gorgeous orange.
It left my skin feeling soft and moisturised as well as leaving me feeling relaxed, considering I was ill when using.
I'm afraid I can't make a comment on how it smelt, as at the time of using, I was having symptoms of Covid-19 and had lost my sense of smell, but I will be buying this again to get the full effect now that my sense of smell has returned and now that I'm recovered.

The Lucky Cat bath bar is £4.95 and like all Lush products is vegan friendly.

See you soon!
