Lush Honey I Washed The Kids Review

I love the Lush range of soaps and the fact that they make using soap a fun experience. The Honey I Washed the Kids soap lasted a good amount of time (almost 2 months) and it held its shape well until right near the end. It lathered well and while it wasn't super creamy, it didn't dry my skin out. Like with almost any soap/body wash I did use moisturiser afterwards though.

Unfortunately, I'm just not a fan of the scent. It's the same as the Gold Fun from Lush, and while it's a bit more toned down in the soap version, I just find it too strong. Maybe it does smell like toffee, but to me it's a really artificial toffee that I don't find pleasant - when I think of the scent I think of fakeness and chemicals, which is the opposite of what Lush products generally are! I had high expectations for this one after seeing it described as 'like washing with creme brulee in solid form', but unfortunately it failed to impress me. Since one of the key reasons for using Lush products is for the yummy scents, I'd definitely skip over this one next time I'm looking for soaps - since they have such a wide range that seem to perform similarly, in future I'd go with a scent I love.

This seemed to be a really popular soap so it was on my list to try. It has a honey with a hint of caramel like scent and lathers really well. I did enjoy showering with this soap although I can't use it everyday since I have sensitive skin and this soap has sodium lauryl sulfate. Despite that it does have some other good natural ingredients in it like rapeseed oil, coconut oil, glycerine, honey aloe vera extract and gardenia extract. I'm not exactly sure what gives this soap it's scent but it does have perfume so unfortunately this scent isn't just purely from the honey and sweet wild orange oil and bergamot oil. This soap lathers up nicely thanks to the SLS but because of that my skin is a bit dry as a result after I shower. That being said most sulfate loaded soaps dry out my skin but this is one the less drying side of the sulfate loaded bars. I do enjoy using this but I'm not sure if I'll get this again just because of the sulfate.

honey toffee soap sensation, such an amazing mix of ingredients for a soap, I'm such a fan of the sweet caramel scent it has, so yummy!!!!. I find it to leave skin smelling clean and highly moisturised. Safe product to use, the kids totally love it and use it all the time, totally affordable also

This soap is actually a big hit with my whole family (siblings and parents that is, as I don't have kids). Even my brother likes it. That's because it smells delicious but just leaves a subtle scent once out of the shower. It is great for moisturizing and is also great for people with sensitive skin.

I received this soap in a Lush gift box for my birthday last year and I just fell in love. I could smell the yummy toffee/ hunny scent without even using it. The smell wasn't over powering either which I was happy about because there's nothing worse then finding something so delicious but not being able to take full advantage of it because of the headache you get from an overpowering smell. Im a bar of soap kind of girl and hardly use shower gels so when I saw the massive size of it I got excited. I was lucky to get a top piece, the bar is a light creamy buttery color with a thin toffee colored layer.

I used it in the shower and noticed it lathered well and had a nice creamy feel to it. I also found myself worrying how long id be able to keep the bar as it seemed to melt away in my hands. I would store the soap in my cabinet between uses as I would only use this soap once or twice a week between my other soap. Also because if I left it in my shower the next time id go to use it, the edges would be a jelly like texture.

Once out the shower, dried and dressed, I could still smell that yummy caramel smell. Its alot lighter then the smell of the bar itself which I was happy about as I didn't want to end up getting sick of the smell. My skin felt so soft and smooth that I didn't need any moisturizer.

I"m always conscious of the products I use due to skin sensitivity and the Lush Honey I Washed The Kids bar of soap definitely has my tick of approval.

This is the first soap I have ever tried from lush and man it is amazing. It smells so good like toffee and honey!

It is a gorgeous caramel colour. It lathers into a nice foam and never leaves my skin feeling dry or tight. It is quite moisturising and gentle. The smell lingers on me for ages and fills my bathroom with the most amazing aroma.

In between uses I don't like to leave it in the shower as it gets a bit soft and melty so I like to dry it off and wrap in cling wrap. This saves a lot of product from going to waste.

I am in love with this fragrance and have just purchased it in the shower gel as I do prefer gel over soap. I feel like this would be a great gift for people of all ages and I love how it is cut off a big block. Just beautiful.

I have horrendously dry skin, I get ingrown hairs easily and I get something called KP as well as dermatitis. This stuff is the S$@#!!!!!! Body-wash schmody-wash, I'm never going back. This is me forever and if Lush stop making it I'm going full at home scientist and figuring out the recipe myself. It softens my skin enough for me to properly exfoliate and does not dry it out and even leaves it feeling lightly moisturised. I regret all the time I ever spent trying to find something else that would work the way this stuff does for me. I have not reacted to it once and that says a lot because as well as having overly dry, dermatitis, KP, sometimes combination skin, it also reacts to some ingredients. I have not once had any issues come about due to using this soap. Yes Lush can be a little pricey, but this is worth every penny you spend and you will not regret it. Guess what all my friends are getting for Xmas?!

My partners son got me this for Christmas. I wasn't expecting anything so it was a nice surprise. It was a decent size chunk and I'm still using it.

I'm not a big soap user so I've been using this to wash my hands. Its very creamy and lathers nicely. The soap bubbles feel soft and creamy and my hands feel hydrated.

It smells like honey and caramel and is a bit too sickly sweet for me, but I like it. I'll keep using it but I probably wouldn't repurchase it myself.

This soap smells amazing - the warm honey and caramel scent hits you as soon as you unwrap it! I have only used this as a hand soap. I stopped using liquid soaps awhile ago as they dried out my hands and irritated them. This soap never does that. It creates lovely soft suds and my hands don't even feel the need for hand cream afterwards. I will definitely be re-buying this (if I ever get through my huge soap stash that is!)

Honey infused goodness mixed with caramel A great soap. Just make sure to keep dry between uses as it melts away to nothing.
