LUSH Oxford Street Haul

It's been a jam packed week; full of travelling from London to Lancaster (basically from the bottom of England to the top for those that are not quite familiar with the UK ^^). A super quick haul of some Lush goodies I purchased during my visit in London. I travel to London frequently however this is the first time visiting the Oxford Street store, so ofc I had to pick up some Oxford Street exclusives! I mainly picked up bath bombs as it was last minute shopping, the store was huge and had many demonstrations going on. Not to mention the packaging is more artsy and nicer~

From left to right:

Yoga Bomb Bath Bomb x2 (orange)
Intergalactic Bath Bomb (bright blue)
Tisty Tosty Bath Bomb (white heart shaped)
Frozen Bath Bomb (light blue) Yes this bath was inspired by the Disney movie Frozen. Let it go~
Guardian of the Forest Bath Bomb (green)
Karma Bubble Bar (purple) I thought this was bomb oops, well something new to try ^__^

All the products except Tisty Tosty are Oxford Street exclusive, cannot wait to try these babies out! ^.^ Inb4 they're not all for myself, I picked up 2 for my waifu~ ^^

Which lush product(s) would you like to try out the most and why? Let me know in the comments! I want to host a giveaway for the most popular product(s), especially for readers overseas so that you guys get to try them too! ^__^

Spicy Korean Fire Noodle Challenge (불닭볶음면)

Amazon £9.74 for 5 packs (Gift* Thank you Alex~ ^^)
If you're in America, they're available at Kmart too.

I finally did the Fire Noodle Challenge yesterday - you can watch my take on the challenge near the end of this post or by clicking here. ^^

Koreans are known for their love for spicy food. These noodles have taken a craze burning tongues in Korea and overseas, from Singapore to England. Samyang's Buldak Bokkeum Myeon, said to be Korea's rank 3rd spiciest instant noodles! Challenged by friend Alex, I gathered my courage to take on this challenge.

Mini cooking tutorial. xDD To prepare the noodles, first cook or boil the noodles until soft. Then drain the water and left the noodle dry. The noodles are slighter thicker than regular ones.

Add the hot sauce and mix it until its saturated throughout the noodles. Top it off with the seasonings to finish.

LOOK HOW FRIERY RED THE NOODLES ARE! Waaaa~

My reaction to the fire noodles:

At first I was expecting the noodles to be much more spicy, I was doubting this until 3 seconds later the burns kicks in. The more you ate, the more the burning accelerated. I felt like I could spit fire, it was that hot! I usually take my spices well too, this is a next level! Its that hot, it stingles and plumps your lips. No need to spend your money on lip plumper or do the Kylie Jenner Challenge when you could just eat these badboys. ^.< Some of friends ended up drinking a gallon of drink, while some others adore this with Mozzarella cheese and egg on top. I might give that a try. :')

I ate these noodles on a empty stomach and OH BOY that was not a wise decision, my stomach was feeling weird the whole day and next after. I shall also mention it messes up your barrel lolol, it smells. >< Two of my friends said their bum was burning too hahaha, I will stop here before I get into too much info.

Have you taken on this challenge yet? How was it? ^.^

If not, IM NOMINATING YOU RIGHT NOW! ^.<

00 F*CKS GIVEN | FIVEPOUNDTEE GRAPHIC T SHIRT

Slogan tees, bargains and expression? Yes please!

I was contacted by Five Pound Tee for a Lookbook collaboration (another outfit on the way~ ^.<). Five Pound Tee is a e-tailer based in London, UK. The tees are exactly what the brand states; t-shirts for £5, such a killer! The quality of the shirts are pretty good for the price, I personally think it's just as good as some of my pricey ones. I adore their motto "Live to express, not to impress" as I believe that is what style is about, a form of expression.

The shirt I picked out 00 F*CKS GIVEN does that really well, a simple design yet conveys the message well. I threw on a khaki green army coat to add some colour to the overall outfit and to keep warm from the chills~ When there is more warmth, this shirt would look awesome paired with a houndstooth A line skirt.

andddd if you haven't noticed or don't follow me on Instagram, I now have lilac pink ombre hair~ ^^ The lilac has faded quite a bit, down side of pastels colours! >.<

How would you rock a slogan tee? Tell me in the comments below~ ^__^

Have a good day. <3

NEW Urban Decay Palette! Naked Smoky

OMG OMG OMG - new Naked Palette for summer 2015. The palette is absolutely perfect! It will be available on Urban Decay's website July 8th. The price has not been stated, but it's probably the same as the other Naked Palettes.

The smoky effect packaging is so lush and sleek! Full case sized mirror, magnetic closer, smooth surface - definitely my favourite and is best packaging out of all the Naked Palettes. I did not jump on the train with the previous palettes due to me being picky. I liked the colours of Naked 1, but the cardboard packaging was off putting. Naked 2 and 3 - wasn't digging the colour selection. Naked Smoky however is perfect!

A wonderful mixture of tones. The shades are stunning; the greys, plum and warm chocolate brown is alluring me. The shadows have a great range of textures - shimmer, satin and mattes. I like how Urban Decade organised the shadows by the texture. I will be purchasing this palette once it releases. ^.^

What do you think of the Naked Smoky? Tell me in the comments below~

Have a good day~ ^_^
