Lush Bamboo Soap

It's hard to believe it as I'm an addict now but this time last year I was a Lush virgin - since being introduced to Lush through reading opinions on Dooyoo I am now a regular visitor to the Southampton Store and am gradually making my way through a long list of products to try. Before I start I must apologise for this review being in the wrong place - the product I am reviewing is actually the Lush Carmen Miranda Soap and not the Lush Bamboo Soap as the category suggests. I normally purchase the bath ballistics and bubble bars but as I've built up quite a nice stock I decided to opt for something different this time, there were so many ...  Read the complete review

This is the way we wash our hands, Wash our hands, Wash our hands, This is the way we wash our hands, On a cold and frosty morning.

My mum went on a holiday to Malaysia, as most parents do she bought some presents for us all. She knows I like soaps so she bought me some Lush bamboo soap. On my first impression I wasn?t that impressed to be honest. WHAT IS BAMBOO LUSH SOAP It?s quite different from normal soap bars. It?s made from bamboo shoots and comes in a green soap bar. LOOKS It looked like a green block. It seemed quite rough. It?s quite thick and many ways looks like a thick branch. It?s considerably bigger than your average soap bar, both in thickness and in length. It is also heavier compared to say a dove bar. SMELL It had a very noticeable, far ...  Read the complete review
