I've used this from a gift pack I received for my birthday. It is strongly scented, it is hard to describe the scent, but it is not unpleasant, but I wouldn't say I love it either. The 90gram bar lasts me 3 uses, so it is quite expensive per usage. This works amazingly as a body buffer scrub, my skin feels really smooth afterwards. It is also very moisturising. Water beads on my skin after using this product. I like this product because after leaving the shower my skin feels smooth and very moisturised.

Lush Big Buffy Body Butter Review
Lush Big Buffy Body Butter Exfoliating scrub for your seating area. Use Buffy on wet skin, in the bath or the shower, to make you softer and smooth to the touch. Buff yourself all over, paying special attention to your backside; rinse off the ground up exfoliating bits of rice, almonds and beans and pat yourself dry. There’s no need for body lotion after a Buffy, because the cocoa and shea butters in it moisturise your skin beautifully. Slay that cellulite.

I completely adore this product by Lush, it's absolutely gorgeous and if it were slightly cheaper I would be repurchasing every single month!
The Big Buffy Body Butter comes in a soap-style bar, and smells deliciously fragrant without being too overpowering. You use it like a soap in the shower, and the natural exfoliants (no micro beads here!) give your skin a lovely scrub while leaving a layer of moisturising oils behind. Most of these oils do wash off during the shower, but afterwards you're left with soft, nourished, subtly scented skin with no need for a post-shower moisturiser.
I adore everything about this product, from the scent to the concept to the ingredients, as well as it coming from a fab company that is leading the way in terms of ethical beauty. 5/5 from me!
I bought this bar as I wanted an exfoliator to use In the shower. This product is quite a soft and gives your skin a gentle exfoliation, but is strong enough to buff away dead skin. It doesn't feel harsh or rough on your skin. This bar has small particles of rice and ground almonds which provides the exfoliating element. The grains feel quite soft on your skin. I use this in the shower, and once I have rinsed and soaped, I apply this all over my body, particularly on my knees and back where I get dry patches.
This bar is very moisturising too. I can feel that my skin is much softer after using this product and my skin feels silky and supple after my shower. This product would be suitable for all skin types, particularly if you have dry skin.
Make sure to keep this bar dry, otherwise it disintegrates and breaks down if kept in contact with water. I like to apply this product when I've stepped out of the direct stream of water. Even though I've kept my bar in a soap box, it has become quite soft and soggy, so it doesn't really last too long even though I have more than half of my bar left.
Like all lush products, the smell of this bar is very natural and has a strong cocoa and shea butter scent. I quite like this smell as it has a slightly sweet smell, but not too overpowering.
Overall, I have enjoyed using this product and I would purchase this again.
I brought this buffy soap from the lush range as I wanted a gentle all over soap. This soap was amazingly gentle on my skin, I have dry/sensitive skin that breaks out with excema from time to time, this gentle soap felt great on my skin, it was also a great exfoliating scrub.
after washing my skin felt rejuvenated and soft. I brought one especially for my partner as hes at work all day and when he comes home he wants a nice soak in the bath, he said after using the soap it makes his skin feel fresh and clean also soothing under his feet as hes standing most of the day.
I love how well this exfoliates my skin but I do find that it leaves my skin feeling far too oily for my liking! It lasts a super long time though
I purchased this product on a whim, not really expecting much, but now it is one of my favourite Lush products and a must have. The coarseness of the ground rice and almonds is just the right consistency and you definitely feel well scrubbed and exfoliated after using it. What makes this product exceptional though is how hydrated it leaves your skin feeling. All those oils and butters work their magic and you feel softer and smoother than ever. I recommend this to a lot of people and if I'm putting together a Lush care package, I always include this. It certainly slays!
Tips: I like to use this on my legs the day before I'm planning to shave them. It gets rid of that dead skin, sorts out any rouge hairs looking to burrow in and pre-moisturizes meaning my skin doesn't dry out as much after I shave. I'd recommend getting a container for this or taking it out of the shower once you've finished with it. Otherwise it can melt/disintegrate a bit.
i loves me a scrub and i loves me a lush scrub. especially the solid ones. theyre a scrub and a moisturizer BUT IN A SOLID BAR! like you cannot go wrong here!
absolutely love the roughness of the scrub, its rough enough to make me feel clean but so gentle and doesnt leave me red and raw like some can.
rinses well and the oils left behind leave me moisturized for the day and keep me feeling soft and silky. i love using this after ive shaved my legs, its like the ultimate silky dolphin smooth experience. and y'all know how much i love being dophin smooth lmao
Hands down a amazing product! Not messing like coffee or sugar scrubs (because who wants to be cleaning up after having a shower). It’s not too rough but enough to gently exfoliate the skin properly and leaves my skin feeling so soft I can’t get enough!
I cannot recommend this product enough!
Tips: Ensure you store it somewhere dry after a shower
I walked into Lush and told them I was too lazy to moisturise my body and so they handed me Buffy. You can imagine my surprise when they told me it will help smooth my back cheeks and reduce the appearance of cellulite. I stood there thinking to myself hmmmm I have no care in the world if my back cheeks are smooth or not until they jumped in with “but it can also be used as a body moisturiser in the shower”...ahhhhh I see.
I love this product and recommend it to those who are: 1.Lazy like myself to moisturise after bathing 2.Prone to dry skin 3.Wanting a great exfoliator and moisturiser in one
I loved it so much the first time round that in my next purchase I bought my besties a piece each because it’s just one of those small affordable luxuries you want to share with others. It comes in a solid bar but unfortunately for an amazing product it looks absolutely dull and boring. The exfoliator can be a bit rough for some people so best to ensure your body is completely wet before using Buffy. I run it all over my body (back cheeks too tiheeee) and it does an amazing job at exfoliating and moisturising. There is a light fragrance of shea butter mixed with almonds and I notice that the water just glides off my body. Once done in the shower I pat myself dry and jump into my PJs – all done. No need to moisturise – halleluia!!!
The issues I have with this product is that you need to be very careful when hopping out of your shower because your tub will be slippery and unfortunately you’ll probably need to clean the residue left behind. Another issue I have is the fragrance on my skin AFTER I’ve patted myself dry – it tends to smell like ‘fatty oils’ which doesn’t make me gag but I’m not overly happy about it. It’s not overwhelming so I use a perfume oil roll on ball (favourite is MOR in Snow Gardenia) to glide over my décolletage and my problem is solved. Last issue is that it can feel like an ‘oily’ residue on your skin but honestly it’s no different to putting coconut oil on as a body moisturiser you just need to give it time to soak in.
Buffy comes in 2 sizes and I buy either one depending on my budget at the time. How long it lasts me and the price point depends on how often I use it a week, how long I keep it under running water and how well I store it and all up it’s not too bad. The smaller size (90g) lasts me probably 2 months if used 2x a week and the bigger size (200g) lasts me just under 4 months. Another Lush must-have!
Tips: 1. Clean your body first then begin your Buffy routine 2. Ensure your body is completely wet before using Buffy 3. Pat yourself dry after your shower 4. If you don’t like the fragrance use a perfume oil or light spritz of your favourite night time fragrance
I love scrubbing to stop ingrowns, smooth and polish the skin and to remove any fake tan! I brought this specifically for my legs to 'buff' and hydrate after shaving. Im not sure if I got an average batch but I did not find it very exfoliating at all, there was the few patches that were better than others but felt more like I was using an old hard soap than anything. It did leave my body feeling smooth thanks to the Shea Butter in it, the smell its self was pretty average. I dont think I will be repurchasing.
