LUSH Honey I Washed the Kids Soap Review

A year ago I was introduced to this wonderful company known as Lush. Due to a high volume of people recommending Lush, I had to dip into this world and find out what the heck it was.

A quick visit to the Lush website, and I am greeted by photos and descriptions of soap, hair products, lotion, massage bars, bubble bars, bath bombs... galore.

 Glorious day, what shall I treat myself to?

Oh I know, how about some freakin soap man?!

I have heard nothing but good things about this one particular bar of soap. It's called Honey I Washed The Kids. I find the name to be annoying, but whatever.

Appearance:

The site shows this honey colored bar of soap, with a amber glycerin topping. The topping is done up to look like bees wax.

What I Got:

Many complaints I have heard from fellow Lushies, is that the soap they receive looks nothing like the one they saw on the Lush website.

Honey I Washed The Kids however, looked 100% like the soap I was seeing on the site.

Instead of taking the entire 3.5 ounce bar in the bath with me in one shot, I actually cut it up into sample sized pieces, and stored the rest in the fridge. You see, Lush some soaps have an expiration date, and some melt extremely fast. All  you really need is a small slice of the soap. So spare yourself the leftovers for another use!

Scent:

Oh glorious glorious day. The moment I opened the box, I could smell Honey I Washed The Kids. Now, honey was not necessarily what I was smelling though. Instead I was greeted with a warm buttery dab of toffee and caramel.

Although the honey scent itself lacked, it was still one hell of a delicious aroma.

Melissa's Use (hey, thats me!):

Honey I Washed The Kids smelled glorious in the shower. The suds lacked, but it still gave me a very clean rinse, and left no residue behind.

I enjoyed the shower, I will admit that. However the scent was what I was after. I wanted this lovely warm scent to stay with me after-wards. Sadly after drying off the gorgeous toffee and caramel aroma was gone.

 Overall:

Honey I Washed The Kids is a gorgeous scented bar of soap. It's creamy, and leaves you feeling clean. Unfortunately the scent is not lasting on the skin.

I still recommend it though, only because it's scent is a delicious one. I find leaving the bar of soap in a sock draw best for its use. It leaves my clothes smelling delish.

It also makes for a good mood setter. The warm buttery scent puts you in a happy and relaxed mood.
