Lush Love Potion Massage Bar

My next lush review is of one of the massage bar and this is from the valentines collection they released


What it Looks Like 






What Lush Says

In days of yore, a young maiden with her eyes on a likely lad would ask the village wise woman for a love potion. These days a girl needs to take a more hands-on approach, so we’ve created this modern alternative which is sure to get you plenty of amorous attention from your special someone.
Love Potion is a massage bar with a difference. As well as the soft, melty cocoa and shea butters we’ve added some cornflour to the mix, which absorbs excess oils. So when the massage is over, you’ll be left with skin that feels soft and touchable, but not greasy.
Love Potion is perfumed with our best-selling Love fragrance; a light, sexy apple scent with citrusy top notes to inspire devotion.

Ingredients

Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Cornflour, Apple Blossom and Orris Root Infusion, Fair Trade Olive Oil, Kaolin, Perfume, Fresh Carnation, Bergamot Oil, Jasmine Absolute, Lemongrass Oil, Rose Absolute, Ylang Ylang Oil, Magnesium Carbonate, Snowflake Lustre, *Benzyl Alcohol, *Benzyl Salicylate, *Cinnamal, Coumarin, *Eugenol, *Geraniol, *Isoeugenol, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Citronellol, *Famesol, *Limonene, *Citral, *Linalool, Colour 73360

Cocoa Butter: The butter is a natural emulsifier and softening for the skin. It is said to effectively relieve itchy, dry skin when applied topically.
 
Lemongrass Oil: Lemongrass oil is antiseptic, deodorant, and toning. In aromatherapy, it is used as an antidepressant and mood lifting oil, as well as for problem skin.
 
 
 

My Thoughts

This is the first massage bar I have ever tried and I am tempted to try others after using this one. To use this product you warm it up in your hands and rub the oil all over the body. This massage bar melts easily in your hands. I love the feeling of this on my skin, I love to use oils on my skin but i hate the residue you can get after using them however this product doesnt leave a nasty residue . It left my skin highly moisturised and the scent lingers for ages. When I apply this I don't feel the need to wear a perfume as this smeels strong enough on the skin. I am in love with this product 

Have you used the massage bars from lush? Which ones do you like ?

Lush Ocean Salt Review

I have recently added lush products to my skicare riutine and I have loved how  my skin is now. In the last month and a half I have only worn foundation once and that was because I was going out for the evening mainly for photos. I have decided to review each new product I have been using

This time I will review the Ocean Salt facial scrub. So lets get on with the review

What The Product Looks Like




What Lush Says

"We Take The lime and the coconut (and grapefruit and sea salt) and mix them up tog4ether in our stimulating,fruity,vodka based face scrub. For a complexion that glows"

Ingredients


Fine Sea Salt, Fresh Grapefruit Infusion, Coarse Sea Salt, Stearic Acid, Fresh Organic Lime Extracted in Vodka, Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Triethanolamine, Avocado Butter, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Lime Oil, Lime Oil, Seaweed Absolute, Violet Leaf Absolute, Glycerine, Lanolin, Cetearyl Alcohol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Perfume, Colour 42090, Methylparaben, Propylparaben

Coarse Sea Salt: This is great for removing dead skin on your face. The sea salt also acts as a good cleanser as it removes oil fro the face and it also has antibacterial properties

Fresh Organic Lime Extracted in Vodka: This is used for its antibacterial properties. This is good as it prevents spots and blackheads.

Avocado Butter: This hydrates the skin preventing it from drying out

My Thoughts

This scrub is very abrasive so i do not use this on a day to day basis , I use it every 3 days. I love the smell of this scrub reminds me of zesty cocktail which I do like. This scrub has some very large salt granules so when apply this I don't rub this on the skin to much as it can damage the top layer of skin. This has left my skin feeling so soft and that all the dead skin has been removed. It also leaves my skin feeling really moisturised.Since using this I have noticed an improvement in my skin. I reccommened this to any one who gets small bumps on your nose as this has worked wonders on mine they have been gone and not returned since I have used this.


What are your thoughts on this product? What face scrubs do you like?


Lots of Love
