24:43

Lush has perfumes/fragrances now, Gorilla Perfumes. When I saw this in the store, I started jumping up and down (fine, figuratively) and proceeded to sniffing the testers.
That happiness was short-lived. After smelling three, I decided that enough was enough!

I decided to write this review on 24:43, which smells kind of like a cookie. A tangy, gorilla rear cookie. I wasn't sure what I was smelling at first, but that's all I can describe it as. Sweaty gorilla cookie. *gag*

They all smelled pretty much like that, and I'm not exactly sure what went wrong there.

To sum it up, I was utterly disappointed. I am still loyal to and love Lush, however!

Ratings:
Smell: • (1 Star)
Look: •• (2 stars)
Price: I forgot!! I want to say about $5-10, though. (There's a roll-on version too, I believe)

Overall Rating: 1.5 Stars.

Review: Miranda

As you may have been able to tell, we really like Lush's soaps. And lucky you! Here's another Lush soap review. :D

Miranda. Mur-an-duh. Just like the name.
Lush's Miranda soap is definitely one of the lighter, cleaner smells.

The overall scent of the soap is citrus and kiwi, but not overpowering. More kiwi than anything....a sweet kiwi.

If I could have any 2 soaps in the Lush store that I don't have, this would be one of them.
It's a very creamy soap, and easy to get all soapy.

Overall Ratings:
Scent: 4
Look: 3
Would I buy it a second time: 45%
Price: $$-$$$

So, we get.............3.5 Pounces!

Review: The Carrot Bubble Bar

Easter is just around the corner, and that means it's time for some Easter reviews!

Lush's Carrot bubble bar is one of the new products in the Easter line.
The Carrot is one of the first REUSABLE bubble bars, so you can use it for several baths, which is nice.
The Carrot smells very clean, with a slight bit of a fruity smell, but not much. (Hey, at least it doesn't smell like carrots!!)
If you like clean and simple, this would be a good product to invest in.
I'm going to make the assumption that bubbles won't smell like much, but, the bubbles are a brilliant, bright orange.

We are getting a new rating system soon, but until we get that made, here are the basic overall ratings:

Scent: ••• (3 stars)
Look: •••• (4 stars)
Price: $7.95

And the overall score is......3 STARS!

Review: White Citrus Fragrance Mist

I recently went to Bath and Body to sniff out some good soaps and fragrances. And to my delight, they had a three-for-ten travel-size fragrance promotion going on. Score!
Out of all of them, White Citrus is my favorite.

It smells clean, yet tropical and very citrusy. It's very light but strong at the same time, making it perfect for Anywhere.

Overall ratings:
Smell: •••• (4 stars)
Look: •••• (4 stars)
Price: $5-20

So, the overall score is...........
4 STARS!

Tropical Traditions~ Coconut Oil

Besides lotions, fragrances, and soaps, there are other "I-wouldn't-have-guessed" products that can be very useful too in the same field. If you've been on Pinterest or Tumblr, you've probably seen something about coconut oil.

I was a bit skeptical at first when I heard this- Coconut Oil? Like, the stuff from the actual coconut? After scouring the internet for more info, I found some amazing uses:

-As a basic, non-irritaing lotion
-To treat keratosis pilaris (little bumps on the skin- my friend tried this, and it worked!)
-as a lip balm
-an eye makeup remover
-helps with eczema
-oil pulling
-shaving cream

One brand that's definitely worth trying is Tropical Traditions- a sample was sent in for review, and it was so creamy, and smelled amazing!
