Lush Rub Rub Rub Shower Scrub

I got a small pot of this in a gift pack that I received for Christmas last year. I was really excited to use this as I haven't used a body scrub from Lush before. My first impression was that it smells amazing. It's an awesome blue colour and is a nice thick scrub. When using it the scrub is quite granular when you begin but as you scrub, scrub, scrub the salt dissolves and it turns quite soapy. Aside from this it works really well and leaves my skin feeling soft and lovely. The only downside of this product is if I leave it on my skin for too long, about slightly longer than it takes to scrub and then wash off the area straight away it stings me like crazy and I have to wash it off straight away. This means I can't turn the shower off and do my whole body bit by bit I have to wash it off as I go. This makes it a not so nice experience as the stinging is not fun and I worry the whole time that it's going to start hurting at any moment. I will use up the pot of this product that I have but to be honest wouldn't repurchase it. I love Lush so it's unusual for me to not love a product but I guess you can't love every product from a brand you love overall.

I got the 130g tub in one of the gift sets for Christmas and it’s been a delight to use however it’s not my favourite scrub largely due to the scent and type of exfoliation.

It’s a blue scrub packed with fine grains of salt and provides gentle exfoliation which is great if you’re not into the heavy duty body scrubs out there. I can definitely smell the lemon in the tub however it reminds me of laundry powder or dish liquid and that’s really not appealing to me nor does it motivate me to use it in my hair!

When using it under running water; I don’t get a sense of exfoliation at all because the scrub just seems to melt away like a shower gel! I prefer to use this while my body is dry. There is enough fluid in the tub to allow you to smother this over your body. It’s a gentle type of exfoliation which means you could use it more than once a week. When rinsing off, again I watch the scrub melt away but I feel like I get my money’s worth by exfoliating while dry and then washing off.

The scrub leaves my body feeling clean and soft but not necessarily moisturised however it does help my body lotion to be absorbed better into the skin. I don’t feel this is the type of scrub that’s refreshing to the point that it’s a good ‘pick-me-up’ in the morning but the scent is lovely enough to linger in the bathroom for an hour. I’m happy to have tried this scrub but I won’t be repurchasing it.

I love love love Rub Rub Rub lol. I have super sensitive and dry skin and this is perfect. Isn't too harsh on my skin and wow my skin feels so moisturised after using it. It smells so good, I think its lemon, but its not overpowering. And that bright blue colour, talk about a funky colour for a scrub. The salt isn't massive either, its more in between Rock Salt and you're standard table salt. If you haven't tried this, then you need to, you are missing out.

Also if you're not familiar with Lush, they spoil you even more when you take five empty pots back and they reward you with a free face mask, how awesome is that xx

Update: Onto my second tub of this now, still loving it and I have also been using it on my face, and it really leaves it super clean and has cleared up my skin, I've had no pimples for well over a week and its looking better than ever.

I got this product as a part of a Lush gift box. I am still not sure what I really think of it. It smells nice: fresh, summer-y and clean. And it is great for exfoliating your skin.

I wasn't so fond of how liquid-y it was - it made it quite difficult and messy to use in the shower. The main reason for not rating this product higher is that there are other Lush products that I find do the same job better/work better on my skin.

I am soooo in love with this scrub! It comes in the usual black Lush packaging, and it's a brilliant blue colour when you lift the lid.

The scent is definitely citrus-y, it smells really fresh and inviting. It's a great wake-me-up when you use it in your morning shower!

It goes on easily, and has a nice scrub power to it. Personally I like a more grainy scrub, and I find that the Rub Rub Rub is a good consistency and grainy-ness.

What I really love about it - it has staying power! It works really nicely as a moisturiser, and my skin feels soft afterwards, and the beautiful scent does linger in a nice way for at least most of the morning.

The only thing I'd say I didn't love about this scrub - I find that I use a lot. This isn't a product where 'a little goes a long way'. That being said, it isn't too expensive, and it lasts a decent amount of time for the price.

I think the main reason I don't love this, I'd because of the screw top tub. In my bathroom this means it gets wet. The product is gloopy and I feel like it slides right off my skin when I put it on. It also leaves the shower floor slippery

I was a little surprised by the scent - maybe a bit manly with a bit of air freshener scent. I didn't think the scrub was very thick at alll, it's more a gel. The scrub definitely made my skin feel silky smooth and soft which is what you want from a scrub. I didn't use it in my hair. I applied it to dry skin, rubbed and scrubbed and then rinsed off in the shower. The salt was quite fine and plentiful so it worked well scrubbing my body without scratching. Overall it's a nice unisex scrub, not overly feminine smelling but still has great results.

I've had this two times already and am always sad when I get to the bottom of the container. This scrub feels wonderful on your skin, I haven't actually tried this on my face yet just because of how sensitive it is, but it works wonders on the rest of my body. I also really love the colour and the smell is amazing too!

You'd expect something that exfoliates your skin to leave it dry, like many exfoliants, but Rub Rub Rub leaves your skin feeling smooth and beautiful. I loved being able to put it on before entering the shower, using the sea salt to scrub away at any dead skin or impurities. Then, you just go into the shower and it all melts down onto your skin, leaving a silky layer that feels amazing. Let's not forget the amazing smell it has; it smells clean and refreshing and like the sea, making you feel relaxed and is makes the bathroom a place of serenity.
