Will You Be My Valentine?

purchased pr sample

I know this sounds cheesy, but Valentine’s Day is actually a very important date for me, because it’s the day my husband and I finally got engaged after many years of dating. Whenever we go out to celebrate, we always giggle about our past adventures and all the things we managed to successfully cross off our “do before marriage” list, including a couple’s pampering session [I remember our fish foot massages in Thailand, those little buggers tickle so bad!!].

Speaking of pampering, both hubs and I are huge fans of LUSH, and of course we anxiously await the release of their Valentine’s Day Collection each year to see all the cool things they cooked up. In 2015, the collection includes the following products: Lonely Heart Bubble Bar, Love Locket Bath BombHeart Throb Bubbleroon, Unicorn Horn Bubble Bar, Cupid’s Love Soap, Floating Flower Bath bomb, The Kiss Lip Scrub, The Kiss Lip Gloss, Prince Charming Shower Gel, Love Birds of Africa Knot-Wrap, and a whole bunch of new gift sets. You can see them all here.

One thing hubs and I love the most is their massage bars, so I always get a whole bunch of them and then we vote on our favorites. Right now I’m obsessing over Each Peach (And Two’s A Pair) and he is totally into Dirty Massage Bar, because it smells pleasant but not “girly”. I think all guys like a relaxing back massage to ease the tension in their back and neck after a long day at the office. Even if you and your SO don’t go out or exchange gifts for Valentine’s Day, I’m sure he will appreciate this little extra touch.

Another fun thing we like to do together is jump in the bathtub with our favorite bath bomb or a melt, and watch a show on a laptop. I think by now we probably tried every bath bomb LUSH has to offer, so we’re both excited to discover something new. When my package arrived, it smelled absolutely heavenly, but little did I know it was unicorn dust! #theydoexist

Unicorn Horn Bubble Bar was originally launched in Japan last year, and it was so successful that LUSH decided to introduce these worldwide! These adorable swirly pastel bubble bars are all hand-made so each one is unique. The fragrance is an uplifting blend of lavender, ylang ylang, and neroli, which is perfect for a relaxing bathtime together.

I am obsessed with all things jasmine, so when I took a whiff of this bath bomb, it was as if I just smelled a large blooming bush – the fragrance is very strong and will most likely linger on the skin. Love it! This star-like flower will deliver some epic me-time for sure.

What are you all doing for makeup this year? You probably noticed that I’ve been experimenting with bright lipsticks a lot, but my hubs actually likes smokey eye and nude lip combo the best, so that’s what I’ll be going for. I’ll let him have his way for once, haha πŸ™‚

    Love your photos, it makes me want to go take a hot bath right now! I notice that everyone else’s Unicorn Horn looks different than mine hehe…

      Those unicorn horns are all different, just like the unicorns they came from. #theydoexist And thank you so much for the comment about my photos!

    Beautiful pictures. Actually, I just have to let you know I’ve always admired the design and style of your blog πŸ™‚ Now onto the LUSH goodies you have… Their massage bars are awesome. Great for date night after a long bath.

      You are so sweet, Kim, I never knew you felt that way about my blog. I’m truly flattered! πŸ™‚ And I’m so with you about LUSH massage bars, they are so versatile. I use them as extra-nourishing body oil sometimes because they have the power to completely transform my skin overnight. Too expensive to use that way regularly, but totally worth it for special occasions πŸ™‚

    I really should try a massage bar. I bet my husband would love them!

    • February 7, 2015 / 10:35 am

      I think you both will enjoy them! Try Dirty Massage bar, it has a very pleasant fragrance that is totally unisex. And it’s my husband’s favorite πŸ™‚

    I’m glad I’m not the only person obsession with Jasmine.

    • February 7, 2015 / 10:46 am

      By far not the only one, trust me! I know plenty of women who adore jasmine in any form or shape πŸ™‚ I used to have a bottle of jasmine oil and applied it to pulse points after bath, and always got compliments from strangers. So trust me, people love jasmine!

  6. February 5, 2015 / 1:12 pm

    My friends did the fish foot massages during their trip to Thailand this past year. Their videos of the massage were hysterical! I love your photos – gorgeous!

    • February 7, 2015 / 11:34 am

      I couldn’t even hold my camera when we tried to take a video, it was so funny! I think hubs managed to snap a few pictures though, and they’re all blurry because we both kept moving πŸ˜€

  8. February 5, 2015 / 4:00 pm

    I think I am mildly obsessed with all of the Lush Cosmetics massage bars. Especially now that I am pregnant.

    • February 7, 2015 / 11:35 am

      They are wonderful, aren’t they? I bet those oils will help with stretch marks too <3

  9. February 5, 2015 / 6:54 pm

    I have no idea what I’m doing for makeup this year, I hope I fit into my dress or I might go nuts. I love the flower bomb πŸ˜€

    • February 7, 2015 / 11:36 am

      Girl, you’re so tiny, I’m sure you’ll fit in your dresses just fine! Love the Vday makeup that you posted on your blog today – that smokey eye is everything!

    I love foot massages if I’m not ticklish… otherwise, I can’t sit long enough. Your photos are fabulous girl.

    • February 7, 2015 / 11:41 am

      Me too, I love a nice foot massage, especially if I had to be on my feet all day, which usually happens when we travel. Perfect way to end the day! And thank you!! <3

  13. February 6, 2015 / 2:12 am

    Great post and I love your photos. I’m obsessed with the scent of Floating Flower. It’s splendid.

      Thank you Erika! Trying to up my photography game and learning how to incorporate props πŸ™‚ I’m totally obsessed with Floating Flower too, it smells like the most fragrant jasmine bush!
