As time has passed and my Lush obsession has waned to a more reasonable level of just really liking some things they make, so my appreciation for the subtler things has become more refined.
Step forward the Almond & Coconut Smoothie. For the unitiated this little pot of goodness is a conditioning body wash. You lather it all over and wash it off again, just like a normal shower gel except this is full of extra goodness!
It doesn't smell like you'd expect it to, you don't open the pot and think it smells like coconut rice pudding, no it's very gently scented with Jasmine, Vanilla, Ylang Ylang and Labdanum and of course almond and coconut. It's rich, creamy, lathers up a treat and feels really soothing. I can't imagine what I was thinking when I donated my last pot to my kids, what a waste.
Oh and as an added bonus this is the absolute bees knees for shaving too. At £7.75 for 250g this is a really delicious shower treat I can afford to regularly get, not that you'd need to since a little goes a long way.
Definitely a rave review for this gorgeous product.

This sounds gorgeous, and exactly what I want to smell of.
ReplyDeleteSo funny sitting here on a Lush high after a Floating island bath melt bath. I am the same I never went for this melt as always wanted one with more bells and whistles , so yummy, smells like a delicate turkish delight. I must re-investigate the smoothie as I've probably overlooked it too!!
ReplyDeleteRight, I am feeling very hard done by. I can't get this anywhere here except Saudi and I can't go there without a tonne of hassle and onooooo its just SO UNFAIR! It sounds amazing as well as most of the other Lush stuff you have blogged about :(
ReplyDeleteI get frustrated with Lush products that don't smell like the foodie ingredients. I don't really like girly scents or perfumy ones but the formulation of this sounds nice. And the kids must smell nice too! he he :D
ReplyDeletei can imagine its smell tho! :P
