I received Honey Trap as a gift. The lip balm is an effective moisturizer, treats chapped lips, and prevents wind burn. I have many dislikes with Honey Trap...it has a heavy musky honey scent. I've received comments from friends and family about a "funky" smell and it turns out it was my lip balm! I've has many difficulties in application; product is a hard solid and does not melt easily on to finger tips. The waxy balm is slightly gritty, and does not apply smoothly. I do not have plans on repurchasing this lip balm and I do not recommend it to anyone. -

As you all may know I tried Buffy (the Backside Slayer) Body Butter and loved it. I can't say the same about You Snap the Whip Body Butter. The bar is made with charcoal and pumice stone, and Macadamia Nut oil. The body butter has a creamy formula that leaves the skin polished and hydrated, but not soft and silky. I enjoy the yummy smell of sweet blueberries and black licorice. The scent lightly lingers on the skin for about an hour or two and slowly fades away. However, the bar itself melts incredibly fast, but it can be stored at room temperate just fine. The body butter does not stain the skin but leaves a mess in the shower; there's black grains from the bar in the tub. Be sure to put some elbow grease in when cleaning up!
I personally would not repurchase this product because I seek a heavier moisturizer. However, I do recommend You Snap the Whip to people who have normal to oily skin and want to try a light body scrub & non-greasy moisturizer.

LUSH Sex Bomb Bath Bomb

I love LUSH cosmetics and their innovative product names. However, Sex Bomb is not a name that I'm fond of; it sounds smutty to me. I think they should rename this product to Passion bomb. Aside from the silly name, the bath bomb is still wonderful. The smell of warm musk, jasmine, clary sage, and ylang ylang fills the whole house, and lingers on the skin for a long time. The rich floral and exotic scent relaxes sore muscles and soothes my mind. It’s a great product to use before bed time or before heading out to the clubs. The bath bomb transforms the water into a beautiful creamy pink wonderland with rice paper rose petals slowly floating around. The soya milk softens and hydrates the skin; no need to moisturize afterwards. Don't forget to rinse off the ring around rub around the tub after using the Sex Bomb. Final words: I will repurchase this product. I recommend this bath bomb for people who want a fun escape from everyday worries. -

Love Lettuce is a fresh face mask with a light earthy lavender and sweet almond scent. I can get about eight to ten uses from these Lush masks. It is a smooth, thick and consistent paste. I found the texture of Love Lettuce was not as abrasive or thick as Mask of Magnaminty. The face mask is refreshingly cool on the skin and acts as a gentle exfoliator. I can feel the mask deep cleaning and tightening my pores. After I washed the mask off and moisturized the bumps and red blotches on my face seemed to calmed down and my skin feeling clean, smooth and soft. I personally enjoy wearing face masks for greater than 15 minutes. I was quite disappointed how fast Love Lettuce dried which was under five minutes. Also the mask started to flaked off my face at the seven minute mark and caused a big mess around my house, since I was getting my chores done. At that point I had to wash the mask off. Bottom line: Love Lettuce is an okay face mask but I won't be repurchasing this product. I would recommend people to check out A Crash Course in Skincare, which is still by far my favorite LUSH mask. -

Skin Nanny is a very rich moisturiser. For me it's a great night cream but the product is too heavy for day use. The scent is heavenly like a combination of sweet exotic flowers and lavender. It is very memorable. The texture kind of reminds me of Vaseline or petroleum jelly. However, the product in my opinion isn't greasy, and doesn't clog pores and cause breakouts. Skin Nanny melts on contact with my skin that is the product immediately turns into oil and sinks into the skin. I wake up with smoother, softer and hydrated skin. I would recommend this product for people who have dry skin and those individuals who are looking for a luxurious night cream. -

Enzymion Moisturizer is waaaay better than any drug store moisturiser I've ever tried .I used this product when I was suffering from cystic acne and was in the early phase of taking Accutane. It's a light but hydrating moisturiser, which I used in the morning. Enzymion Moisturizer helps brighten my skin and even out my complexion. The product helps me regulate shine and greese! My skin is calmer in that I'm breaking out less. I really like the refreshing citrus scent, but it's nothing too memorable. The only cons I can think about is that it's a bit pricey and there is no SPF protection. I would recommend this to individuals who have combination skin and oily skin. -

Sugar Babe is a granulated sugar scrub with a pleasant creamy vanilla-coconut scent. I would consider this a gentle exfoliant. I usually divide the scrub into 4 pieces. Then I wet my skin and apply the scrub, which gently melts onto my skin. The scrub leaves my elbows, knees, and legs super soft and smooth with a thin layer of oil. The only "con" about the product is that it is slightly messy and the scrub crumbles easily. Overall, great product that I find myself constantly reaching for. -

I adore the yummy lavender and herbs scent of the scrub. Since I am frugal, I cut this sugar scrub into 2-3 pieces. Next, I wet my skin then rub the scrub bar on my elbows and legs. It is an invigorating scrub that leaves my skin super smooth, hydrated, and bright. It doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy or sticky. Thankfully, the scrub doesn't dye the skin green or leave of tint of colour. -

I absolutely love, love the scent of this soap. The soap reminds me of freshly squeezed sweet lemonade. It's something I like to use in the shower to wake me up. The product is a 2-in-1; soap and gentle exfoliator. Sexy Peel cleanses throughtly; clean, smooth and silky skin. It also moisturizes and hydrates dry and flaky skin. I wish Sexy Peel had more froth action. -

I really enjoy LUSH's Vitamin E (and C) toner tabs. It's a light relaxing flora scent. My face feels soft, moisturised and hydrated after using it. The tab helps soothe redness and blotchiness, and shrinks enlarged pores on my nose. If you are frugal, like me, there are multiple ways to stretch the use of this product! I usually dissolve a toner tab in a tin bowl of warm water. After steaming my face I let the water cool and pour it into a spritz bottle. Then store the toner in the fridge and use it as a regular toner. The toner lasts for about a week. I sometimes like to change things up and soak my hands in the water, and then discard the water. Another way I use the toner tab is soaking a cloth in the water and then rub my face with the cloth. This gives me a nice exfoliation. -
