LUSH - "Each Peach" Review

A few months ago, I did a post about the LUSH Haul that I had done.  Well one of the items that I bought was a massage bar called "Each Peach".
Its finally time for the review since I've had adequate time to use it and properly review it!

Product Review:

LUSH Cosmetics - "Each Peach (and Two's a Pair)" Massage Bar

"Massages are enjoyable for numerous reasons; they help us relax, they soothe sore muscles, and sometimes (like when you use an Each Peach) they moisturize your skin and uplift your spirits. Because this bar is packed with cocoa, shea, avocado and mango butters, it's a fantastic moisturizer. Plus, we add sweet orange oil, lime and grapefruit oils to refresh and wake you up. Perfect for a fruity, uplifting massage."

Pros:
~ Citrus fragrance - not too strong either
~ Bar form - great at controlling how much oils you want
~ Melts to warmth of your hands
~ Great size - lasts a long time
~ Very soothing and moisturizing
~ Vegan product
Cons:
~ Time it takes to melt in hands to use
~ Pricey - at $8.75 for a 2.2oz bar
~ Location of stores are limited esp if you can't buy online.
~ Fragrance may just be too strong for some
~ Can melt if kept in direct sunlight or heat

Rating: 4/5

Will I repurchase?                 Most likely YES!


Overall, I like this massage bar. When I was at LUSH, I sniffed all the bars and this one was the most appealing and wasn't too strong for me.  I liked the citrus/fruity smell of the bar so this was the perfect product for me, even Mr. H liked it.  It does take a few rubs to get the oils out of the bar to use, but once you do, its perfect.  The oils from the massage bar are great for body and hand massages and is very soothing, perfect for sore muscles or just a relaxing massage. Who doesn't love massages? hehe  This is one product that lasts a long time, and I will defintely enjoy using over and over again.

This product can be purchased at any LUSH Cosmetics store or online at LUSH.


(This item was purchased by me. I am not affliated with said company. All reviews are based on my sole experience)

Very First LUSH HAUL!

For a very long time now, I've always walked by the LUSH store and just passed by, looking but never would go in.  Yes, I know that I have get a little woosy from way too scented smells, so I was always sort of afraid I'll get overtaken by the lush smells coming from the store.  I've read many reviews and seen pictures of hauls, but I wasn't too sure if I was into the whole bath love thing. I'm a shower girl, so its kinda hard to picture myself taking a bath, LOL.

So just a few weeks ago, my friend Lisa posted a LUSH Cosmetics Haul. She got so many items that I got a little excited. What if that was me? Her LUSH haul made me want to go get some too as I finally knew someone who really liked those items.

So I finally caved in this past weekend and went inside the strongly scented LUSH store.  I wasn't sure if I was going to make it past the doors without getting a headache, but surprisingly, it seemed as if the smell lessened as I was in the store. I was helped by a lovely SA (sales associate) who showed me around the store and helped with describing what certain items were for and how to use them.  I can tell that the LUSH employees are very helpful and will take their time to explain and demonstrate the products for the customer. That shows very good customer service in my book. 

Since I was new to this cosmetics line, I was still unsure of what to get, so I only bought 2 items and got a nice sample the SA gave me.  I think it was a good buy; it was something that I had heard and read about.

Onto the HAUL:
the goodies!
 
 Each Peach Massage Bar (as you can tell I've already used it)
  
 Angels on Bare Skin Cleanser/Scrub
  
 Ocean Salt sample
 


I'll be doing a more in-depth review on which items I liked and didn't like and what I would like to get next for my LUSH haul (I really want more..if you couldn't tell already)

From what I've read and heard, don't be afraid to ask for samples.  Especially if you are new, not sure of what to try, and not willing to spend alot on your first try, samples will help you decide whether you like it or not.  It was my first time, so it is kinda of hard to buy because I wasn't sure if I was going to like the item.
