Zara Sale Picks

Tops: White | Tie Dye | Black

It's that time of year again! The Zara sale started yesterday and there are some great pieces that are being offered for awesome prices! I went in during my lunch break to check it out and I got a white v-neck for $10 and was eyeing this leather jacket which is so cute. I ordered the tie dye shirt, the bucket bag, and the white sneakers, which are a staple for any wardrobe. Leather skirts and denim jackets are going to be huge in the fall, and now would be a great time to buy a parka for the winter, instead of paying full price come November. Check out the sale soon because items are selling out fast!

Review | Lush Ocean Salt Scrub



Let me first start off by saying that this is my all time favorite product from Lush. While I obviously haven't tried all of them, I have tried quite a few different products and this is the only one that I've seen have a real impact and really do what it says it will. The Ocean Salt Scrub is basically a scrub that you can use on your face and body that will take off any dead skin you may have, which will even out your skin tone and make your skin brighter. After the first time I used it my skin felt so smooth, like baby's butt smooth. I also have some little red bumps on my upper arms and I found that this helps to get rid of them, which is amazing because I've been looking for something that will do this for so long. It can be quite abrasive so if you have super sensitive skin this might not be a good product for you, but the salt does help to scrap off that dead skin. It has ingredients like avocado and coconut that hydrate your skin, while vodka and lime help cleanse it which will help get rid of and prevent acne and blackheads. 

Along with this I also bought the Rub Rub Rub Shower Gel, which I honestly did not like. It smells so good and looks really cool, but I was expecting it to have the kind of impact Ocean Salt had for me, and it just didn't. A Lush employee recommended this to me because I told her I have dry skin (I bought this in February) and it felt really nice when she used it on me in the store, but once I started using it at home I found that it didn't really offer much in terms of exfoliation, and I have to really scrub it in well to get any kind of effect at all. It's very liquidy so most of it ended up on my shower floor and not on my body, which wasted a lot of product. I got the biggest size they had and it was gone in a week and a half. Whereas the biggest size of Ocean Salt will last me months. I used it up so quickly I wasn't even able to take a picture of it, and it's not worth it to me to buy it again. I also found that the sea salt kind of separated from the rest of the product so I had to keep mixing it together. Lush also says that you can use it as a shampoo in a pinch, but I was too nervous to test that out.

What are your favorite Lush products?

Currently Craving



There are so many things I'm craving right now! I'm really loving the Reformation Romper, the Suede Skirt from Topshop, and the BCBG Espadrilles. I also just bought the J.Crew shorts in a neon coral color and they are soo comfy, and I want to get them in white. I'm trying really hard not to buy everything on this list, I want them all!
