Sometimes I forget that I’m not at work. Like right now my hands are a tiny bit dry and normally I’d just dip into a pot but I can’t because all of mine have lids on. Boo.

Also, I basically assume I’m wearing an apron at all times, which means I get stains on the front part of the thigh of any kind of skirt, trouser or short I own. Boo.

Ran myself a lovely hot bath (Marzibain bubble bar, part of a retro box I got from work). Popped a facemask (Love Lettuce) and a hair mask (H’suan Wen Hua) on and sunk back into my almond-y bubbles. I had taken a book in but I thought I might prefer some radio instead - well wouldn’t you know there was a rather juicy debate on radio 4 about abortion! Awesome, just the kind of thing I like to listen to/shout at.

It was both very relaxing and mentally stimulating.

Oh, and my face feels AMAZING. I really cannot extol the virtues of Full of Grace enough. I wasn’t sold until I tried it but I cannot get enough.

How often do you visit your local Lush/order online?

I work in my local Lush, so I’m there quite a lot…I don’t order online much, but I probably will more now that the website is smashing and retro all looks amazing (and now I have money and a bathtub, of course). Before I worked at Lush I was in there whenever I could afford to buy stuff really, so not often at the start of the year, but moreso in Summer last year, maybe twor or three times a month.

I cannot wait for Christmas. All the products look and smell and feel AMAZING. (Also the new products, AHHH).

I have literally never been more excited for Christmas in retail than I am this week. If Sunday doesn’t hurry up and arrive I might just cry.

I also don’t know if I mentioned how incredibly drunk my friend Carl got on HIS birthday last Friday. We only went out for a couple, and it ended in me shouting at him every 7 seconds so that he wouldn’t fall asleep in the bar and get us all kicked out. Then he went missing for about an hour and half and then went to work in the morning! Classy boy.
