13 Rabbits Shower Gel by LUSH

Product Description

13 Rabbits can be summed up in a single word: decadent. Imagine showering with tender chunks of ginger dunked in premium dark chocolate and you'll get the idea. Moisturizing avocado, peach kernel and jojoba oils make skin soft and flexible while cocoa along with ginger and clove bud oils provide the delicious aroma. After you rinse off, the scent of spiced chocolate lingers as a sensual reminder of your shower. Yes, the word decadent definitely does come to mind.

You Snap The Whip Body Butter by LUSH

You Snap The Whip is a body butter for roughed up skin that needs chastising. Powdered charcoal gives this black bar its hard core of exfoliating absorbent grains to scrub away sad old skin cells.

It's a bit messy but absolutely gorgeous. Note: This product may melt and is NOT guaranteed to arrive solid during the summer months!

Customer Reviews

Delicious Scent5
Absolutely love this stuff! I cut my bar up into six pieces so that I get as much as possible out of the bar. It scrubs and melts away in the shower leaving smooth skin and a sweet blackcurrant scent. Yummy! It's main drawback is that it leaves kind of a mess in the shower- be sure to rinse the shower well before you get out, because the black bits in this bar get everywhere.

Overall, very nice to use. Absolutely adore the scent. Will repurchase.

Wonderful Body Butter5
While I did love this body butter, I still think the Buffy Bar is far more superior to this one. Snap The Whip has a wonderful smell and leaves your skin feeling very soft and silky.

Breath of Fresh Air Toner by LUSH

Product Description

Re-hydrates dry skin with soothing, nutritious, rejuvenating ingredients like real sea water, natural spring water, aloe vera gel, patchouli oil, rosemary oil and seaweed absolute. A spritz after cleansing softens and balances, while a spritz any other time of day refreshes and renews. LUSH likes the seaside and we have our sea water fetched for us from far off shore where the clean Pacific water is. Sea water is full of beneficial minerals. We also have local harvesters fetch seaweed for us too as it has around 20 times the nutrients of land-based plants.

Another winner5
I think Lush makes a darn fine toner, and Breath of Fresh Air is no exception. Since the demise of Breeze on a Sea Air I use Breath of Fresh Air as my regular, go-to toner. As always, it clears off and tones my skin, leaving it soft, not tight. This is a product I purchase over and over again, and I've not found any other toners I like as well as Lush's.

Great toner5
I really like this toner as well as their Tea Tree toner. This toner is really good right after a shower to get rid of the extra face wash and stuff that you didn't get off in the shower. It helps moisturizer absorb right in and overall my face feels less oily throughout the day when I use this in the morning.

Sympathy for the Skin Body Cream by LUSH

Product Description

At first glance, Sympathy for the Skin lotion looks like vanilla bean custard. Slather it on and your body heat reacts with the vanilla to release delicate wafts of sandalwood and subtle undertones of almond. Substantial but not greasy, Sympathy replenishes parched, weathered skin to a state of glorious touch-ability with almost edible ease.

best ever5
Awesome! I love this lotion. It is a perfect texture for over all moisturizing, neck to feet. Not too thick, not too thin. Especially nice to put on after a shower, while the skin is slightly damp, absorbing quickly and making your skin feel SO soft, not greasy. Best of all, it has the perfect level of fragrance, just a hint of vanilla and cocoa butter, which will blend well with any fragrance, not over power it. I will never use any other moisturizer again.

:) :)5
Love this lotion. :) It smells so yummy and goes on smoothly, plus it leaves my skin feeling so soft.

PERFECT PRODUCT!!!5
This lip balm is so great. The smell, alone, will get you wanting to use it all of the time and then combine that with the moisturizing effect on lips and you have the perfect lip balm. I had to go and order more as soon as the first one arrived and I opened the cover!!!

Mmm...a treat for your lips!5
This is the best-smelling lip balm ever! It's chocolate with a hint of orange, and it also does a good job moisturizing too! Plus, it seems to attract guys and make them want to kiss you;-) It must be that smell...
A must-buy!

Aromaco Deodorant by LUSH

Product Description

Patchouli gets a bit of a bad rap in the beauty world. Usually described as 'earthy' at best, this oil is actually a heady, sensual miracle worker. It's cooling on the skin, rumored to sharpen the wits and acts as an insect repellent too. Baking soda, chamomile vinegar and astringent witch hazel join patchouli in the mix here to neutralize pongs at the source. Stay fresh the natural way!

Customer Reviews

Patchouli heaven!5
I got a sample of this patchouli-scented deodorant and it's very creamy and glides on nicely. Sniffing the bar, it's an extremely potent scent and although I love patchouli, it seemed almost too strong. However, it was toned down once on my skin and I love it! It lasts all day and I keep sniffing my pits. This is something I will definitely have to buy!

So far, so good!5
Right out of the wrapper, this deodorant has a strange smell; I wasn't sure I'd like it at first. But, trying to get away from bad deodorant products and loving everything Lush I've tried, I was eager to try it.

After application, the smell changed to a pleasant one. For a few minutes, my armpits felt a little damp, almost like I didn't have deodorant on (not in a good way). But, a couple of minutes later, it dried, and it was fine. I went from a white solid deodorant to this, so there is a bit of an adjustment. I imagine if you're used to a roll on deodorant, you won't need the adjustment that I did. I have had no trouble with it, and I really have come to love it! As other reviewers have said, you may want to keep some with you if you expect to perspire or if you have strong body odor. I haven't had the chance yet to test it's durability! But, so far so good!

Awesome with a detox5
The thing about Aromaco is that it doesn't contain the chemicals and metallics that your typical antiperspirant/deodorant does. so your body is like HEY WOW I CAN GET RID OF THIS STUFF! and it does expel some kind of yucky smells for a couple of weeks.
BUT, you just soldier on and use it twice a day instead of once and it's totally worth it. i can go an extra day without using it and because my body has already gotten rid of the gross stuff, there's no foul pongs. It's brilliant and one of the best things i've ever purchased from LUSH.

Customer Reviews

Okay, but probably not worth the price3
This is Lush's Karma scent, now in a body lotion. The scent translates pretty well from perfume to lotion, and the lotion smells much like the perfume (little scent mutation here). The lotion formula is light. For me, this is not a lotion for the depths of winter, but works out quite nicely in the summer. At the end of the day I'm pretty much meh about this product. It works well enough, it smells nice enough, but I'm not going to go out of my way to purchase again either, especially given that it's quite an expensive lotion.

Distinctive bright orange & patchouli scent, light creamy texture5
This is my favorite lotion - light & creamy, not oily or slick. The scent is bright and full of orange and patchouli. The scent is pretty and earthy without being "earth momma". My boyfriend loves this scent as much as I do!

I love this lotion over Lush's other lotions because the scent stays on during the day, and it absorb quickly. My skin looks and smells lovely throughout the day when I'm wearing Karma.

love it4
I purchase this every six weeks. I love the smell and it last for the whole day. It is lite and probably not a repair type lotoin.

Volcano Foot Mask by LUSH


Product Description

Volcano is an explosive concoction of exfoliating pumice, deodorizing tomatoes and potatoes, and enzymatic papaya. Plaster your feet with a generous amount of foot mask and wrap them in plastic bags. Let Volcano work its magic for 10 minutes (or for 15 minutes if you fancy the warmth of hot lava) before rinsing it off with warm water. Reveal beautiful, baby-smooth feet.

Customer Reviews

Spicy Cinnamon Orange Pumice Scrub5
LUSH Volcano is made with kaolin, papaya, tomato, bentonite, potato, lemon peel oil, cinnamon oil and perfume. It has the scent of a spicy cinnamon orange cream but has finely ground pumice, which makes it perfect as a scrub.

I promised my husband a little foot pampering so I ordered this along with the Fair Trade Foot Lotion. Together they work miracles and leave your feet feeling refreshed and soothed.

The Volcano "mask" goes on thick and you have to put your feet into plastic bags and sit for 10 or more minutes. Then, it requires you to sit on the edge of the tub to wash it all off for another 5 or so minutes. Then, after you dry your feet off, you can enjoy a massage with the deliciously pepperminty foot lotion rich with almond oil, cocoa butter, spearmint and peppermint oil.

Skin Drink Moisturizer by LUSH


Product Description

This rich face cream softens dry skin and helps it absorb moisture. Its scent of roses, almonds and sesame seeds reminds us of an oasis garden, providing relief in the midst of Saharan dehydration. To rehydrate, we use emollient cocoa butter and almond oil, soothing aloe vera and rose petal infusion, moisturizing fresh avocados and nutritive evening primrose oil. We call it Skin Drink because it refreshes dry skin as effectively as a cool drink refreshes a dehydrated body.

Vanishing Cream Moisturizer by LUSH


Product Description

This low fat moisturizer has minimal oil, making it perfect for those with acne, oily skin or a spotty T-zone (forehead, nose and chin). Light-as-a-feather Vanishing Cream sinks into the skin quickly; we left out the cocoa butter and used shea butter and softening linseed gel, camellia, grapeseed and jojoba oils instead. You don't have to have problem skin to use it; this comforting, balanced moisturizer keeps normal skin clear with lavender, rose and neroli. Vanishing Cream really does make skin troubles, well, vanish.

Full of nourishing oils like lavender and neroli, this body butter especially for hands has no end of conditioning capability. From your digits to your elbows, wherever there's a rough patch, let vanilla and mango save the day and delicately smooth the way for some soft touching. Butters and beeswax and mango, oh my!

Warm and Sensual5
If you have tried any of the LUSH massage bars then "The Soft Touch" will please you. The buttery texture of cocoa butter melts on your skin while it releases a delicious fragrance. Neroli (orange blossom) oil is known for its aphrodisiac qualities, Lavender oil makes you feel calm and relaxed and Cardamom oil clears the mind. When I first purchased this body butter I thought the fragrance was a little strong. However, once you apply this all over your body the scent is heady and sensual. The Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Wheatgerm oil, Avocado oil and Soya Oil make this luxurious.

~The Rebecca Review

Amazingly delicious5
Tried this butter last night, it smelled so wonderful, and left my dry skin so soft I did not need lotion...Enjoy!

Aromarant Deodorant by LUSH


Product Description

Aromarant is a lemon and herb-scented block of deodorant made with fresh lemons because they are astringent, cooling and good for armpits. We use a fine collection of plant infusions too. Cleavers calms the skin and witch hazel and oak bark are strong, skin-cooling astringents. Bicarbonate of soda absorbs odors and neutralizes the microbes that live on your skin and react with sweat to cause pongs. Sandalwood oil makes you smell good. Done.

A healthier option that WORKS!!5
In trying to reduce the synthetic chemicals in my personal care, I have tried Tom's of Maine deodorants, which work, but are not anti-perspirants too. A friend suggested LUSH and I owe her BIG.

The product should be kept in an airtight container (as noted on their website product reviews) and should be used on warm dry skin for the best results. Yeah, it'll crumble a little, but not alot.

The first day I used this I went hiking and...no soggy shirt! no stinkiness either! The aroma is sandalwood and lemon, which may not be pleasant on all people (like grapefruit on me...completely gross!). I really like this product and will be trying more from LUSH.

Update: 10 months later...(75% of the bar used)

Still *love* this product. You have to watch out for the sunflower seeds and orange peel bits as this wears down, but those can easily be removed as you wear the bar down (they're only on one side making it super easy).

You will sweat: if you normally use prescription antiperspirant, if you're very active on a very hot/humid day, or if you're *extremely* active any other time (think human tractor pull here folks).

Coconut Deodorant Powder by LUSH3
I love it! Its great to use after a shower, especially after you`ve shaved your under-arms. Its soothing, and doesn`t sting.
However, this product can`t replace a regular stick or roll-on deoderant.
It wont prevent under-arm odor, so before you get dressed to go out, use your regular deoderant!
But, if you`re just hangin out at home, or you`ve showered and are getting ready for bed, this is much better to use than your regular deoderant.Coconut Deodorant Powder by LUSH

The Greatest5
This was a stocking stuffer from Santa. I loved it better than any of my gifts.It is great for the cuticles, but I use it daily on my feet. They are like when I was a young girls again. I have used so many things and this is the only thing that truely works...

Great cuticle first aid!!!5
I was at the Victoria, BC LUSH this morning, & while paying for my Coolaulin & Trichomania, I sampled the Lemony Flutter tester at the register. After I got back over to the Mainland a few hours later, I drove to the closest LUSH store & snapped up some Lemony Flutter. My cuticles are in the best shape in years. Fahgeddabout Burts Bees, Lemony Flutter is Da Kine!! Not to mention the fact it smells lemon fresh!! Great stuff.

Smitten Hand Cream by LUSH

Product Description

Heaven in a jar. What more can we say? Once you open it, the warm, almond scent pulls you in and you can't help but swirl your fingers in its decadent, creamy goodness. Without being greasy, Smitten hand cream moisturizes mitts to renew elasticity and tone. Be careful, you might find yourself (and maybe others!) sniffing your hands all day long.

Deep Moisturizing Hand Cream4
This is a gorgeous-smelling, very effective hand cream. My hands get very dry in the winter and Smitten has been a godsend for them. It moisturizes and sinks in very well- so much so that it's still working even after I've washed my hands. Like others have mentioned, I like this hand cream better than Lush's other choice- Helping Hands. This is a bit lighter and easier to use than Helping Hands, and the smell is worlds better. This smells like sweet almonds. My only complaint is that my hands are a bit lotiony/greasy for about 10 minutes after application, but it's so worth putting up with that to get a whole afternoon of moisturizing.

Officially Smitten5
I'm always on the hunt for a good hand cream that will provide effective moisturizing and then seal in the benefits. When I dipped my fingers into the dreamy summery yellow cream I could instantly tell this was going to be especially comforting.

Almond oil, calendula, Anthemis Nobilis Flower Extract, Linseed oil, Cocoa seed butter, avocado oil, wheat germ oil (may be the main secret), beeswax (the other secret to seal in moisture) and coconut oil are blended with floral extracts and perfumes. The scent is very mild with hints of sweet rose and warm almond.

If you love this for your hands, wait until you try the Fair Trade Foot Lotion! Both are equally impressive and the results last for hours and hours, even overnight. I'd recommend Smitten for the bedside table! You could even blend in more rose or any essential oils you prefer. The base is mild enough so you can experiment with fragrances to your heart's content. If you like this scent, Skin Sin may impress you with its healing chamomile and almond oil.

One of the main things I noticed with "Smitten" is that if you wash your hands later, say with Rock Star soap, the beeswax keeps your hands protected and you may not even have to apply more cream. If I was going to recommend only one LUSH product, and trust me that is difficult, I'd say try this one first.

~The Rebecca Review, smitten like a spa kitten

Good but greasy4
I'm a huge fan of many of Lush's products, but I have mixed feelings about this one. It's great for night-time hand moisturizing, but a little too greasy to use during the day. Also, although it does smell somewhat like almonds, I think it smells a little more like Play-Doh.

Imperialis Moisturizer by LUSH

Product Description

Imperialis is great for combination skin because it's made with lavender infusion to balance the skin's sebum production. Meaning what exactly? Well, lavender encourages dry skin to produce more natural oils and discourages oily skin from overdoing it. With orange flower water to tone and St John's wort to soothe irritation, Imperialis' collection of butters and natural oils make it not too heavy and not too light, bordering on perfection.


Product Details

  • Amazon Sales Rank: #3808 in Beauty
  • Brand: LUSH Cosmetics
  • Dimensions: .9 pounds

Features

  • Blended with lavender, orange blossom absolute, St. John's Wort and sweet violet leaf to help even out skin tone
  • Moisturizes with olive oil, shea butter, cocoa butter

Customer Reviews

Excellent for combination skin5
Moisturizer can be a real problem zone for combination skin. It seems to be easy enough to find cleansers and toners that will handle both oily and dry skin, but moisturizer is it's own issue. What's good for oily areas never moisturizes dry regions, and that which is emollient enough for dry patches overwhelms oily parts. In Imperialis Lush has created a moisturizer that actually works for a combination face. Imperialis really does work on all parts of a combination face- at least most of the time. The one exception I've found is really extreme winter weather- for that I need something stronger for my dry patches. But for most days, this is just perfect. This moisturizer also smells pleasantly of herbal lavender. This is a staple in my beauty routine.

Great moisturizer5
I have oily skin in the forehead area, but my cheeks are dry. I used to use Celestial moisturizer from Lush. Which I think it's perfect for me during the winter. But for warmer climate....I prefer Imperialis. It doesn't make my forehead oily and hydrated my cheeks. Also, I prefer the smell of this moisturizer over the Celestial. I love the smell of the lavender and orange...it's very relaxing : )

Herbalism Cleanser by LUSH


Product Description

Herbalism has China clay to remove excess oil, ground almonds and rice bran to exfoliate away dead skin cells, sage, chamomile and marigold to soothe inflammation and rosemary and sage to banish nasty microbes. As well, the combination of the clay and rice bran leaves a matte finish to the skin. Some people who have used the Angels On Bareskin and found it too rich, find the Herbalism to be lighter. If you persist and use this cleanser every day, we guarantee results that are well worth the bother. Important: /BDue to all the fresh ingredients, this cleanser has a shelf life of just three months.

Product Details

  • Amazon Sales Rank: #10064 in Beauty
  • Brand: LUSH Cosmetics

Features

  • Essential oils provide an antiseptic action, relieving congested complexions while rice bran helps absorb facial oils
  • Includes ground almonds (not shells) to gently remove dead surface cells leaving skin soft and relaxed

Customer Reviews

Exfoliates Effectively5
Herbalism is an earthy product that feels like clay. To use it you have to add a little water and then smooth it over your skin. It takes about a minute to exfoliate like a dream. I was very impressed with how effective it was and it left my skin moisturized and radiant. If you are allergic to nut oils this might not be for you, although I am allergic to almonds and didn't experience any problems. The ingredients include: glycerine, kaolin, chlorphylin water, ground almonds, rice bran, rosebuds, powdered nettle, rose absolute, chamomile oil, sage oil, powdered marigold, powdered chamomile, powdered rosemary, chamomile flowers, marigold petals, limonene, linalool and perfume.

~The Rebecca Review

Awkward to use, but a nice product3
Herbalism is a nice scrub that comes packaged as though it were a deli product (at least when purchased at LUSH stores) which is amusing it it's own way. While a very effective scrub for cutting off emerging acne problems if used at the first signs of problems, it can be a little awkward to use - figuring out how much to use, how much water to mix and then getting the paste from palm to hand without creating a huge mess can be a bit challenging. It has a distinctively pungent odor from the rice vinegar, but the scent fades very quickly. Overall, worth a try. I hope to try Sweet Japanese Girl to see if it works as well or if I will have to be resigned to a little bit of sloppiness.
