Lush Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter Review

I got this in the Boxing Day Sales half price and I'm amazed at how long one little 50g pot has lasted me when using daily. I don't just use this on my cuticles but on my feet, knees and elbows and hands at night. I am a pretty active person and workout, walk and get down on my knees for cleaning and doing pilates and some yoga stretches. I put this nightly on my knees and it keeps my knees from getting those dreaded white and grey patches. Also it's kept calluses soft on my feet and kept my elbows from discoloration. It has a bitter citrus scent which is fine, not my fave but not bad either. I've been using this daily for the past few months and I've just only now hit the bottom. I love that Lush uses natural ingredients in it. I would repurchase this as it's a good butter for all the rough skin on your body, but I think I would probably prefer to use a foot cream on my feet as that would be best.

Love Lush's little black pots :) love the text on them and the sometimes silly things they put.

The thing you notice first is the smell of this cuticle butter, delish (as long as you like lemon of course) - good enough to eat.

I don't look after my hands/nails really at all so this was a really nice change - I put it on after I have showered and massage into my fingers/cuticles.

I think it has made a little difference (been using for a couple of weeks), the skin near the cuticles is definitely softer and my nails look shinier :)

I will continue to use this until it is finished and may buy some more.

It's rare that I find a product that really helps with my dry skin. The nice lemony scent is refreshing. I was concerned at first that the container was really small for the price but you really don't need a lot to cover both hands. It has a luxurious feel to it, slightly waxy but my hands feel so wonderful when I use it. I try not to keep the lid open too long to keep it nice and soft.

I've recently been giving a lot of lovin' to my nails, and I wanted a cuticle balm to add on to my routine. Wonderfully, I discovered Lush had this baby. The price was a bit out there, but for the amount you get and the amount you use, it will last a really long time!

It comes in a small black tub, the same as the face masks, and when you have 5 you can get a free face mask! Inside the pale yellow delight stares back at you, perfectly flat and delightful. It was hard to put my finger in it, I didn't want to break the smoothness.

The smell is so awesome. It smells like lemons (obviously!) and of something else I can't quite place, but it reminds me of a cake or other sweet lemon confection, or even a creamy whipped lemon. It's amazing. The texture is weird, it is almost gritty but as you rub it in it melts and the delicious oils coat your nails with their powers.

As I said, a little goes a really long way, so you can rub your finger around the pot once and have enough for all your fingers. The other great thing about this stuff is that it doubles as a heavy duty moisturizer, so you can put it on all your dry bits and this will sort them out!

I've been wanting to try this product for so long and finally bought one when my friend offered to grab me some items from the Lush Store.

I love the recyclable pot it comes in and a great perk if you are not aware of this is you can take 5 of these pots into a Lush store for a free mask, how awesome is that.

Anyway moving on with the actual product review.

When you open the pot, you are met with a lovely lemon scent, but its not overpowering so if you are not a lemon fan you may still like this.

It has quite a thick consistency, kind of like a balm type product but more creamy. You only need a small amount as a little goes a long way, and too much will make your hands and fingers extremely greasy.

I just applied a pea sized amount onto my fingers and cuticles, and hands, massaging it in and it felt so nice. Gave a nice pampering and relaxing sensation to it. Left my fingers and cuticles really soft and hydrated.

Only downside is that even when using a small amount, it still leaves you feeling greasy, but it is still a great product at a great price for the amount you receive.

I've always eyed this product up during visits to my local Lush store, and never decided to actually pull the trigger and buy it. However, I was at my Lush store last week and was chatting to one of the lovely ladies who worked there and got a generous sample of this cuticle butter. After trying it out for the past few days, I can definitely say I will be purchasing the full size of this once I am done with the sample! It has already made a huge difference in my cuticles and nails.

This product retails for $19.90, and contains 50g of product, which is very decent considering you only need the tiniest amount each time. It comes in a classic black Lush pot, which is a decent size, although I personally think it's a bit too big to just chuck in my bag for everyday use so I think I'd rather scoop out small amounts and put it in little jars for better portability. The cream itself has a thick buttery texture and is pale yellow in colour, it has some granules in it but these melt away with the heat of your body as you rub it in. It has a light lemony scent which I personally love but might not be for everyone. At first my fingers were a little greasy but within 10 minutes it sunk into my cuticles leaving them moisturized and my nails with a healthy shine. I found that this was the first product that I felt actually sunk into the skin around my nails.

I would definitely recommend this product if you suffer from dry cuticles, it definitely made a difference in the dry skin that I usually get around my cuticles and I have also noticed that I don't get as many hangnails anymore. This product is kind of pricey, but I think for the amount you need to use each time and the huge pot it comes in it is definitely worth the money. Thumbs up from me!

I love this product when I first got it! So nice, smells amazing and softened my hands. But, I don't love the tub format. It's not convenient to carry around and I ended up putting it into a smaller pot for my bag.

I have dry hands, a single wash with soap can leave them feeling tight - so I used this quite regularly. However, even my excessive use found that I couldn't get to the bottom of the pot before it dried out and turned super grainy.

I might repurchase in the future but for now, I will run out of my current hand creams first.
