Luxurious, almond-scented hand cream is nicely moisturizing, absorbs quickly and leaves hands lightly scented. I love these lush tubs because I can use every drop. This is really rich, so sometimes I'll use it on other parts of my body to smooth over rough patches. Lush can be a bit pricey but this is definitely one of their products that I love to splurge on.

The Lush Hybrid is a shampoo bar with bits of cocoa butter for conditioning. It has a licorice scent that I really enjoy. I have short, slightly oily hair so I find that it is just right for me. However, it isn't conditioning enough for dry hair and probably not as great for long hair. I suppose it could also work for long, dry hair if paired with a conditioner. One or two swipes over my hair with this bar is enough to wash it, so I can use the bar for a very long time. The only thing is to make sure that the bar can be stored in a place where it can drain because if it stays wet it becomes a soggy mess which is hard to apply to hair in a frugal fashion.

First of all, this review is for the tin only. I love Lush shampoos, but this tin is a terrible way to store them. As other reviewers mentioned, it is hard to open with wet hands. Lush shampoo bars also need to be able to dry, so if you put your wet bar back into the tin it will be a soggy mess the next time you open it. I had to scoop bits of my shampoo bar out to use it which was very wasteful. I ended up using this tin to store earrings. I'm glad that I got it for free (the buy 2 shampoo bars get the tin free deal) because I'd be very disappointed if I had paid for this.

Gently cleans your face and helps keep your skin balanced, but also is a bit pricey for soap. I love how gentle and effective this soap is at cleaning my face. The soap lasts for a good amount of time and rinses clean, but it does put a dent in your wallet. However, it is worth it when you can afford it.

I love this light moisturizer. It is a bit pricey for olive oil, but it is the perfect consistency and goes over my skin perfectly. The little bottle does last a long time and it is a great light-weight moisturizer. In the dead of winter I usually have to add a bit of a heavier cream, but this is my favorite summer moisturizer. It also keeps my skin soft and balanced.

Nice and smooth lip balm with lovely scents. These are smooth wearing and lightly moisturizing. The scents are nice, natural and not over powering. I love all of the ones that I've tried.

I love these little tins. They open easily but stay shut in your purse. The scents are pretty nice also. I have chai rose and mandarin orange. Both have a great, natural scent. These go on smooth and are also lightly moisturizing. They have a great texture and are also good if you need an emergency moisturizer for your hands. A bit greasy for anything but your lips, but easier to keep in your pocket than a tube of lotion.

This balm is a bit rich for the face, so I usually just use it on my lips and hands. If I have a chapped nose I'll rub it around my nose. It has a really lovely smell which is just perfect for night use. Lightly moisturizing as far as lip balms go, so it feels too greasy on other body parts. Generally a nice balm.

I do love Tarte cheek stain, but I don't find it to be long lasting and it is quite pricey. I went to Sephora and tried a few shades and I definitely think it is important to find the right shade because some of them made me look a bit clown-like. In the end I fell in love with the Tipsy shade. I love how it blends into my skin and gives me a really natural glow, but if I don't set it with powder it wears off. With powder it almost makes it through the day. I used to always use Burt's Bees cheek color and so far this is the closest cheek color to give me the results I want. I just wish it was a bit cheaper and a bit longer lasting.

This is a great scrub! The sugar is nice and exfoliating and the oil base smells amazing and leaves a thin layer of oil on your skin to keep you moisturized. The only problem for me is that it leaves a thin layer of oil in my shower also so I tend to try and use this product the day before bathroom cleaning day.
