Happy Mother's Day!!!

Although on a Teeny Tiny Hiatus (read more here...), I want to take a moment to acknowledge all the amazing mother's out there! Today is your day, and us daughters and sons will never forget how wonderful you truly are!



To my own mother, Karla, who I love with all of my heart...



Thank you for always being there for me. Admittedly, these last few months, I truly needed a lot of support and a shoulder to cry on, and my mother was there for me every step of the way. Like most mothers and daughters, we have our good times, and our bad times, but that never changes the love that I hold in my heart!

Me w/ my Mommy & sister, Kristina
Mom - I love you so much! Thank you for always being there for me...for not only being my mother...but my friend!


Happy Mother's Day 
to my Mommy 
and to all the
Moms out there!!!

Exciting News & a Teeny, Tiny Hiatus!

Hello, my loves, my darlings, the reason why Hello Miss Niki is what it is! 

Me & my baby girl :)
Most of you may know, due to my excitement and enthusiasm via-Facebook and Twitter, that I am embarking on a new journey. About two weeks ago, I was offered a position at a successful, global, health, beauty and wellness company. Although I am starting on the lower spectrum of the totem pole, I have high hopes that to grow and advance throughout my new career. 

For about 10 years of my life, I was involved in an industry, far from beauty and cosmetics; and it was always my dream to have a job that incorporated my interests and passions. Finally, this incredible opportunity has come along and I couldn't be more grateful.

For the first time, in a long time, I feel as though everything is falling into place the way I want it to and the feeling is amazing! I didn't even start my job yet and already I feel like a different person.

Due to my excitement and hopes to grow and be successful with this company, I am going to be taking a short hiatus. I really want to focus and get my foot in the door and although Hello Miss Niki is my baby, I need to step away for a few weeks. I won't be gone any longer than 3 weeks (it may even be two), but I really just need to take some time for myself.

I cannot begin to express how Hello Miss Niki has been a journey within itself. This blog has taken me farther than I ever expected and I am truly grateful. From bettering my career and my passion, to enhancing my own personal confidence, it has truly been an amazing experience thus far. 

I have met some wonderful people, who I consider to be my friends, and have made connections with several companies who see my potential and value my opinion. There are no words to describe how this makes me feel.

Hello Miss Niki is one of the many reasons that life is falling into place. Besides my supportive family and friends, this blog has allowed me to multi-task, balancing both life, careers and passions.

I am aware that this is a very "ooshy, gushy" post, but I just want to take a moment to say thank you. There are so many people, including beauty bloggers, that I would love to thank individually for their support, but I would need hours to compile all of my thoughts.

You have all been extremely supportive, kind and amazing, and I attribute my success to you!

Although I will be away for a short time, I will continue to post on Instagram (@hellomissniki), and other social media sites because I cannot totally pull away from my beauty blogging family. I just won't be dedicating time to reviews and blog posts. I do have another group giveaway coming up in a few short weeks, and if it happens to fall within my hiatus, I will post and promote it because I made a commitment to do so.

I won't bore you any longer with my sentimental blog post. I just wanted to take a few moments to fill you in on my life and to once again thank you! You all mean the world to me!!!

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

NEW Lush Limited Edition Mother's Day Collection

"Get Something for Your Mumkin!" Don't forget...Mother's Day is May 12th! Have you thought about what you are getting for your mom this year? 
 
While bath bombs and bubble bars may not be every mother's cup of tea, there are many that my enjoy an evening of pampering; and yet again...Lush has quite a bit to offer! While I may not be a mommy (yet), I sure would appreciate some goodies from Lush!

Bursting with the joys of spring!      

This beautiful bomb may look simple, but inside is a secret... it's full of flower petals! When you drop it in the tub it blooms about you, releasing the rose absolute, sweet wild orange and rosewood oil fragrance and petals. It has a frothy outer layer, creating a light carpet of foam to sink beneath as your cares float away.
 
 
Fluffy raspberry bubbles
Mumkins are cute, friendly and love to be crumbled under the tap to bring you mountains of fruity bubbles. Each Mumkin smells of raspberries, with bergamot, lemon and violet leaf oils to brighten your day. Chocolate drops for eyes and a candy stalk stick make these the most adorable bars we've ever crumbled into our tubs. Made just for Mums on Mother's Day, but irresistible to everyone else!        
 
 
Cast a spell on dirty dishes

This Mother’s Day, give your mum the gift she wants most…a clean kitchen! The Dish Fairy is not meant for your tub, but she’s filled with skin softening, effective ingredients like lemon and gardenia oils. Fill up your sink with warm water, swishing The Dish Fairy around like a wand. Then wash the dishes and let her work her cleaning magic. You’ll have soft hands, a sparkling clean set of dishes, and a firm place in your mum’s good books. Job well done!
* For the record...if you are going to give your Mom a product to do the dishes...make sure you follow the directions listed on the stick...YOU DO THE DISHES!!!

 
Introduce your Mum to Madame
If you’ve lavished your skin in our buttery Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner, or indulged in a skin softening Rose Jam bubbleroon, then we know you'll love Madame Butterfly’s rose petal and lemon oil fragrance. If you haven’t tried them, well, then you simply haven’t lived! Flutter a Madame Butterfly around your tub for massive piles of sweet, rosy bubbles and experience the fragrance that has legions of fans in love with roses again.        
 
 

Chocolate orange bubbles galore

Why give your mum a box of chocolates when you could give her a bath full of orange chocolate bubbles? Mum Tulip’s rich, sweet fragrance may smell familiar; you can also find it in our popular and scrumptious Yuzu & Cocoa Bubbleroon. Treat your mum to a whole bunch of them. They’ll last much longer than real tulips!
 

Limited edition reusable bubble bar

April showers bring May flowers. Or in this case, bubble wand flowers! A beautiful, bubbly blossom with refreshing lime, bergamot and juniper berry oils wake you up to the joys of spring; flowers blooming, green grass growing and sun shining. Simply swish The Mum around your tub for an (almost) endless pile of zesty bubbles.        
 

Isn't she lovely?
Isn't she wonderful? Tell her so with this bundle of floral luxuries. Secret Garden Bath Bomb and Rose Jam Bubbleroon encourage hours of quiet-time in the tub, while Rub Rub Rub shower scrub and Ro's Argan Body Conditioner soften up her hard-working hands and feet. This beautiful paper was inspired by sweet and traditional linocut floral prints. This one's just to say thanks to our moms, for all they do.   

Sing in the shower

We've wrapped up our cheeriest shower and body treats in on happy, windmill topped gift. We've included our fresh squeezed grapefruit shower gel Happy Hippy, our simple lemon soap, Bohemian and our grapefruit and lime Whoosh shower jelly soap for happy showers. Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter, Each Peach massage bar and our orange and patchouli Karma Kream body lotion ensure soft skin and a fresh perspective. What's not to love?!
 
 

All she needs

What does mom truly want for Mother's Day? A time out in the tub! We've carefully chosen some of our most popular bath and body products for mom, including The Comforter, our all-time, best-selling bubble bar and Dream Cream body lotion and three more. And because it's a limited edition gift just for Mom, we knew we had to include three of our freshly made Mother's Day exclusives, Secret Garden Bath Bomb, Mumkin bubble bar and Madame Butterfly reusable bubble bar. Enough treats to last her until next Mother's Day!    
 
 
 
Celebrate the arrival of spring!
Ah, spring is finally here! The scent of fresh cut grass and flowers fills this Spring Tin to help you celebrate the season in your bath and shower. The beautiful limited edition Secret Garden Bath Bomb bursts open in the tub to reveal that it's packed full of flower petals. While you bathe, wash up with Grass shower gel or our lemon soap, Bohemian. Bathe again and again with The Brightside bubble bar and Carrot, which is a reusable bubble bar. You've got enough treats to last you 'til summer!   
Whether it's a few goodies from Lush, a lovely bracelet or a gift certificate to the spa, get your Mom something special for Mother's Day! 

Me & my Mama :)
What are you getting your Mommy???
