Advantages: Smells great, full of natural oils and fruity segments

Disadvantages: Doesn't lather up very much

If you're a little bit fruity this is the soap for you! Crammed full of fruitiness and delicious oils!

My reason for picking the Miranda Soap was due to the name, my sister is called Miranda and it's not the most common name, so I decided to treat her to some for her birthday, but got an extra piece to try myself. Lush have this soap after Carmen Miranda due to the fruit hat she wore.

The soap is priced at £3.25 per 100g. It is a lime green colour which I believe is probably due to the kiwi fruit. Depending on your piece you may also find bits of fruit inside the soap; mine just had a small piece of banana. These fruits have been reshaped into random pieces and are dotted through the soap, these are real fruit and each block includes 2 Bananas, 2 Oranges and 6 Cherries. I was a little disappointed mine was distinctively lacking in fruit but the soap itself really made up for it.

The soap is literally crammed with essential oils and fruit which include:-
Rapeseed Oil
Coconut Oil
Fresh Kiwi Fruit
Ylang Ylang Oil
Juniperberry Oil
Bergamot Oil

This combination of ingredients makes the soap smell good enough to eat and the fragrance reminds me of those childhood sweets - Refreshers! The soap is a delicate smell which is strong enough to stay on your skin after using, but isn't as strong as other lush soaps. I do love how it stays on your skin though and you still be smelling it 3-4 hours afterwards!

The soap doesn't lather up a lot but does still clean. I was hoping for more lather but you can't have everything! It leaves skin feeling soft and moisturised. I use half my soap for my hands and use the other half in the shower generally and it is ideal for both! It lasts a long time and doesn't break up when it gets thin! I will defiantly be buying this again!

Summary: A must for those who like the fruiter side of life
