Lush Miranda Soap Review

Hi my name is Bex and I am a Lush addict! I love lush and HAVE to buy at least 3 things each week and at least 1 or 2 have to be something new. I love the sweet scent that their products have and this is no exception.

This soap is delish its fruity and funky the piece I received is a very light pastel green colour because kiwi fruit is one of the ingredients used in the Miranda soap you can see the little kiwi fruit seeds and almost acts like an exfoliator while rubbing it over your body. It's a very creamy soap and lathers up nicely. Because it's quite creamy and soft i have cut this into 3 smaller pieces because I don't want it all turning to mush by sitting on the shower ledge so figured it was easier to have smaller pieces and also it's easier to hold and handle in smaller bits.

As with all the other Lush soaps I have tried it doesn't dry my skin or leave my skin feeling tight and the fruity scent of this lasts a few hours on my skin afterwards it seriously is delish

Oh my god I love this soap. I love the look, I LOVE the smell, and it makes my skin feel soo good and I smell wonderful! It is fruity, (and I'm not usually a fruity fan), it looks funky, I love how Lush makes all their soaps look so interesting. And even before I started using this soap in the shower I had it sitting on my duchess for a month,while I was using all my other Lush shower products :), and just the fragrance in the room was divine. I'm a real Lush convert these days, and I love trying all their new products.

I have to admit that I love Most Lush products and this one is no different. As with most Lush products this one caught me at first smell. The Miranda soap smells fruity and delicious and really helps you to feel freshened up after having used it. I tend to use Lish soaps very quickly because I just can't stop so can't really comment on the longevity of them for others. This soap leaves my skin feeling clean and soft and is a pleasure to use.

I got this soap because while I like Lush I prefer soaps without sodium laureth sulfate and this one was sulfate free and had a lot of oils in it. However the scent wasn't as fruity as I expected in fact is smelt a bit like a hint of kiwi and then stale something. But I still wanted to use it because Lush generally produces good soaps and because of the ingredients. This soap has glycerine, rapeseed oil,coconut oil and fresh kiwi fruit. It lathers up pretty well. I've been using it with a shower puff and it's okay but it's not outstanding. My skin is pretty sensitive and do have those red marks after I shower. But other than that it's okay. I don't think my skin feels any of the moisture from the oils in the bar. Luckily the scent doesn't linger on my skin and once I rinse the lather off and apply moisturizer the red marks go away. I will continue to use this soap up but I probably won't repurchase. It's not a bad product but just not for me.

I purchased a 100gm piece of this kind of on a whim when I placed an online lush order. It was down to $4 and I thought why not?

This comes in just a basic clear plastic bag with a white printed out sticker displaying the weight and the name of the soap. It's definitely not flash, but lush never claim to be flash on packaging! I'm not sure how well the soap would survive long term in this packaging but it should be ok for a while.

My soap looked a bit different to the one pictured. It is actually mostly a pastel green. I does have a few coloured bit's in it as well. The beauty of lush's soaps are that they will all look slightly different as they are cut off a larger piece of soap. I think it looks pretty unique and if you had a few different pieces of unpackaged lush soap, it would be pretty easy to recognize this one.

I don't really know what I was expecting this to smell like, maybe citrus? When I first smelled it, I was delighted. It reminds me of fruity candy. It's super sweet but not sickly at all. I'm currently just using this as handsoap, I love how it leaves my hands fragranced for a good couple of hours after using it. I find this lathers up really well too. I also like how this doesn't seem to go all gross and squishy too. It has retained its harder texture.

I'll definitely buy this again in the future. I did go overboard in the lush sale so I don't need any soap for a while anyway! If you like sweet scents, I'd definitely recommend this one.

I was given a piece of this in Lush to try and finally got around to it pre-Xmas.

The one I have is a different colour to the pic above (mines bright yellow and orange with kiwifruit seeds) but the rest is the same.

The scent is classic Lush - divine on the product and in the shower, fades over the day, and isn't strong enough to clash with anything else I wear.

This is a citrussy smelling soap sweetened out with the kiwifruit, that lathers well and cleans without stripping skin. I keep my piece in the shower but only use it to wash my hands, and it's perfect there.

Like all Lush soaps it's a lovely scented, quality soap that's a little piece of luxury in the morning.

I'm a huge fan of Lush soaps. I have very dry skin and I find these clean really well without leaving my skin a flaky mess. I've been using Lush soaps exclusively for a year now and have been trying out all the different scents. Miranda is one that I keep consistently reordering for its delicious fruity scent. I find that these soaps don't always handle a wet, steamy bathroom environment very well if you leave them exposed, but I get around this by cutting off a small piece to use in the shower and storing it in a water tight soap dish. A small piece will normally last a few weeks and I leave the rest of it in my drawers to make my clothes smell amazing.

I really liked this soap when I first smelled it, I'm a sucker for anything tutti-fruity and this one's smell definitely didn't disappoint!

But that's where it stopped for me. The soap itself lasted a week before it was finished, and I found that to be a bit of a let down especially after trying other Lush soaps that lasted three to four times that long. $8 a week for soap is a little expensive haha!

Normally I use shower gel, but I bought different soaps on the boxing day sale to try them out and I was the most disappointed with Miranda.

I've found that it doesn't make as much foam as the other soaps and I had to apply it twice to three times every time to be able to wash my whole body.

The soap itself is also much more moldable than the others and it doesn't hold up well in heat. If you touch it you leave your fingerprints on it and it gets dirty really really easily.

I'd repurchase to put it in my room to smell good, but for actual use I probably wouldn't repurchase.

I got this for xmas and oh my goodness the smell is heavenly! Can definitely smell the kiwifruit and ylang ylang. It is quite big for the price. Ok you don't usually expect to pay $8 per 100g of any other soap but Lush is always the exception and Miranda Soap is well worth the money!

I found that the soap gets up a great lather when I use it but it wears down very fast and doesn't last as long as any other soap I have used. I love the mixture of colours and shapes in the soap and I love that it's all natural and best part it's animal testing free!!!

My body after using it smells extra yummy and will leave our house smelling good too. I was hoping it would be great for my dry and sensitive skin but alas after use it dries it out immensely! I have to use a body wash afterward to inject some moisture back in to my body which is a bit disheartening because it takes the smell away a bit.

I have found a good use for it now though. Instead of all over body cleansing it is now used as my legs shaving soap which it works well for because I moisturize after shaving anyway so it's a win, win situation for both parties!
