Lush Happy Hippy Review

Grapefruit is the top smell on this shower gel in the flip top Lush bottle. The liquid is a pale yellow tint that is still see through. This is a rush of grapefruit scent so if you are not a fan of grapefruit and citrus scents, leave it on the shelf or give it to someone that does. The smell hangs around for a little while on me but I suspect this would vary between people.

When I use it I feel squeaky clean afterwards, kind of like the old sunlight dishwashing liquid ads. While I feel clean it is not a drying feel. It foams really well on my loofah. It is normal runny thickness for a body wash.

The grapefruit scent is uplifting and while not my favourite mint scent, this still gets me moving in the morning as a nice alternative.

I have a small 100g bottle of this shower gel. It looks the same as every other gel that lush makes. A clear squeeze bottle with a black label. This has a bb date but I've recently found out that lush gels last much longer than what is stated, so as long as you store them out of sunlight this will last a few years.

The color of mine is a light lime, because each batch is handmade, there can be slight color variations between each batch but there should still smell the same regardless. I've tried quite a few different lush shower gels now, some could call me obsessed but this is the thickest formula I've used so far. It comes out almost like a jelly. At first I thought it was just from a cold morning but it hasn't changed with slightly warmer weather. It lathers up well with a small amount, I use a shower puff.

I think the grapefruit scent is spot on, it's not artificial at all. It even has that slightly bitter/sour note that real grapefruits have. I do think this is a nice energizing scent for the morning. I'm not sure if i would repurchase, lush gels are expensive and i do have others i prefer much more. I'd totally recommend to anyone who loves this kind of scent though!

This was one of the first lush products I tried. It is rather pricey for a body wash but then again it is organic and made from natural ingredients. This body wash is a typical regular body wash, the texture is similar to a normal non-organic body wash. It has a gel like texture, and the colour is a clear, pale yellow colour. I love the smell of this body wash. It has a lovely citrus scent that smells of grapefruit and lemon which is very lively and does make you happy. After using this nifty wash I feel very refreshed. However, I do find that the scent doesn't last and be doesn't linger on your skin like other body washes do. Maybe it's the fact that it's organic and natural? You can really only smell the scent when you open the bottle and squeeze out the liquid. I would love for the scent to waft through my whole shower and bathroom.

I do find that some organic body washes don't lather up, but this body wash has SLS in it so it does foam up. I like to use a sponge or loofah with my soap which helps the body wash to lather up and makes it easier to rub the soap over your body. The bottle is one of lush's standard clear cylinder shaped bottles with a black lid. I do find that sometimes the bottle is quite stiff and can be hard to squeeze the product out, but I can cope.

Overall I did like this product and I do love the smell, however it's not my favourite lush body wash,o I think I will think twice before repurchasing.

Hi my name is Bex and I love lush! Borderline addict, some would say I am... No seriously though I love lush, the quirky names, the great packaging and the amazing smelling products what's not to love? So I have a long list of favourites that I always purchase, but I'll always buy something I have never tried, because who knows there could be a new favourite out there!

With happy hippy I was expecting a burning Incense scent, full of a rainbow of colours. That didn't happen, but what did happen was a grapefruit scented, slightly cloudy looking shower gel.

This comes in the standard lush squeeze bottle clear, with a black label and lid (which can be recycled) it's nothing fancy but it does the job.

I squeeze a bit out onto the shower puff and rub it over my body. It lathers up quite a bit which I love, mind over matter but I feel cleaner if I can see loads of bubbles. The bathroom air fills with the citrusy grapefruit scent.

When I dry my skin it doesn't have that squeaky feel which i thought being grapefruit it would leave a bit of a "stripped" feeling. The only thing I can put this down for is the scent doesn't last long on your skin after you dry. But that is only minor and I will still repurchase it.
