Lush Rose Jam shower Gel Review

This was a birthday present from my brother and sister in law last year. Lush Rose Jam Shower Gel is one of their limited edition products, that they re-issue every so often (at Xmas, I believe!)

The gel comes in the standard Lush clear-with-a-black-cap bottle, and as always the caps on these are recyclable. I personally re-use the smaller sized bottles for gym/travel etc shower gel bottles as they are the perfect size.

Rose Jam is a gorgeous berry coloured shower gel. It's quite thick for a shower gel, but because of that is fairly luxurious in feel. This shower gel cleans and scents your skin, leaving it soft and feeling pampered. Lush do shower gel incredibly well, and it says a lot that you can also use it on your hair- clearly these are not products based around harsh soaps and chemicals.

The scent is a spicy, smokey rose. While is is quite an intense scent, much of the intensity washes away with the product leaving a faint aroma. For me, I smell the 'smokey' scent a bit more, which is the thing that stops me giving this the high grade I usually award to Lush.

I would probably not purchase this again but would use it if given it. It's by no means my favourite Lush Shower Gel. It's okay but I prefer their Snow Fairy, Prince Charming, and Happy Hippy.

Rose Jam is my absolute favourite Lush product AND favourite shower gel of all time! A limited edition product available at Christmas time I picked my first bottle up in Lush's Boxing Day sale for 50% off as a 100ml bottle, then quickly returned to snap up both a 250ml for myself and another 100ml as a gift for a friend as I loved it so much.

The packaging is the standard simplistic Lush clear bottle with printed label marked with use by date (yes it does expire!). Luckily it has quite a long shelf-life so I wouldn't say you need to worry about it expiring on you, I've used Lush's products past use by before perfectly fine.

The first thing I noticed about Rose Jam was it's lovely berry-red colour, but it was the smell of the thick gel that really won my heart. Rose Jam smells simply HEAVENLY! I'm a huge lover of rosewater, both the scent and the taste and this reminds me so much of it, like liquid turkish delight bottled to perfection.

This is the product I'd go all Gollum "my precioussss" over, complete with wincing when I've caught my partner using it and gentle nudges of other gels. On days when I can't be bothered with a bath but I want a bubble bath but I want a shower with a little extra, Rose Jam is what I reach for as a pick-me-up. I've just used the last of mine and I'll be stocking up when it's next on sale.

If you are a fan of Lush, or have heard about Lush, chances are you have heard about Lush's seasonal range, which includes the Rose Jam Shower Gel. It is limited edition is the fact that it is only released around Christmas time.

This was something i had heard about long before i made a Lush purchase, so ofcourse when i became a self aclaimed lush addict, this was an item i had to buy (and luckily for me it was xmas time, so it was in stock).

Okay, so the smell of this is ah-mazing. It smells like Turkish delight, and honestly looks like it too because of its beautiful purpely-pink colour. It has a thick texture, similar to other body gel in the lush range but that means i find a little bottle lasts a long time because you can squeeze out a litle bit, which seems to be the right amount for creating a great lather which smells awesome, and which is a smell that actually lingers on my skin after the shower.

The packaging of this bottle? Well its the same as all the other packaging from lush. It comes in a see through bottle with a black cap, and a black sticker which has all the product info on it. Simple, but it stays true to how Lush package all their products.

As a shower gel, it lathers nicely, creates an amazing aroma in the shower. Seriously, it just smells so good its hard to stop yourself from using the whole bottle just to enjoy that smell for as long as possible. It also seems to do a great job at cleaning my skin, without stripping it or drying it out.

This product is lovely, but i have to say i find it hard to fork out $12 for a small bottle of this. However, if you can snap it up in the boxing day sales, you'll be crazy not too!

I am so glad this is now up on BR so I can sing its praises. This is one of my very favourite shower gels ever! (Second only to Original Source Lavender and Tea Tree). I know this only comes out twice a year but I always have a spare in my cupboard so I know I won't run out.

The packaging is the usual clear container (great for seeing how much is left), with the black lid. The gel is a dark red shade which is very pretty.

Now I'm not a fan of Turkish Delight, but I love this. The rose smell is seriously intense. You are going to have to love the florally rose scent to like this product... Luckily I do! It works very well as a shower gel, it lathers up well and leaves the skin feeling very soft, but not extra moisturised. It doesn't leave the skin feeling stripped at all which is good. Sometimes I find with Lush soaps they can be quite drying. When you wash this off it does leave a faint scent, but nothing really noticeable later on in the day.

I will continue to stock up on this product whenever I can. I love the scent and try to keep a spare in my bathroom cupboard so I know I can have it when I want. They better not discontinue this one!!!

This was one of the very first lush items i tried! I got given it in a Christmas pack two years ago. I really liked this little bottle of over powering goodness, it is a floral lemony scent. If i was to go in to lush i probably wouldn't have chosen this shower gel, im not normally a huge rose smelling fan but this was actually really nice! i only now realize that its limited edition, that's a shame as im sure so many people would love it. It wasn't a very thick liquid but lathered up quite nice. As i opened the bottle i thought it wouldn't last long as it was quite small but surprising it lasted me around 3 months, as you didn't need to use much! Packaging wise lush tells you everything you need to know,very simple. I love how lush always put a expiry date on there products! they picked a good name for this product, eye catching.I liked this product but even if i could buy it, i don't think i would as i have other scents i prefer more! i would recommended it to anyone who loves a good rose scent!

I purchased this online so the scent was not something I had a preconceived idea of other than by name. First the packaging is the standard Lush plastic bottles with flip tip cap, easy to dispense and the shower gel is the usual consistency I would expect from a shower gel.

The colour is a gorgeous rose pink, there is no shimmery particles in this one (unlike my much loved Snow Fairy) but this one does have a strong rose scent (for obvious reasons) but it is sweet like a jam, so I can smell the reason behind the name. It doesn't lather up much and I don't find it is as good at cleaning as other products... but the scent lingers on the skin and in the bathroom for a while which is nice. I wouldn't normally go for a floral (I know I bought it and it clearly would be floral with Rose in the name) but this is so sweet and it's a very beautiful rose scent. I don't think I would repurchase it though as I am still more fond of snow fairy (I love sweet candy scents) but if I happened to be gifted another I would still be very grateful.

Last Christmas I received this product which made me laugh because I don't like shower gels and I don't like rose scented - anything.

I didn't have high hopes for this at all so I wasn't surprised when I wrinkled my nose once the scent was out in in the open. Maybe it's the shower diva in me, but I kid you not I was overwhelmed with the scent in the shower it actually left me feeling woozy a few times haha.

It comes in the typical plastic bottles most of Lush's liquid products are packaged in. I'm not a huge fan of them because I find that as you near the bottom it becomes harder to get the remaining product out.

The consistency of the product is great and is easy to spread over the body. I don't notice much of a difference on whether it leaves my skin soft or moisturised because I regularly exfoliate and moisturize my body using other products.

My main issue is the scent. I seriously smelled like I had rolled around in pot pourri. It was a tad too intense for me that I didn't even want to dry myself off because I didn't want my towel to smell like that too.

The interesting thing however is that once the product has time to settle into the skin; it gives off this light warm rose scent - subtle but definitely in the air - just beautiful. Beautiful enough for me to repurchase? No, I'll just stick to my beloved soaps.

I was given a very generous sample of this from both Lush and my beautiful friend Shana, and I was very pleased. There is something about roses that I just love, I think it's mostly because they remind me of my nana. This is no different, and I love it.

The color of this shower gel is a gorgeous deep red, much like a beautiful rose. The scent is very rosey, with a hint of citrus and its surprisingly uplifting. It makes me feel better on a bad day. It also smells like a massive field of roses on a hot summers day; sweet, sickly but comforted and safe.

The scent lasts a decent amount of time on the skin, and can be made to last longer with the Ro's Argan shower conditioner, and again, if you're so inclined, the Rose Jam bubbleroon bubble bar. The scent is the same through all three products and it's really just lovely.

I would repurchase the 100ml of this, but not the bigger bottles as I don't think I would use it often, and I do think I would get sick of the sickly sweet rose smell, as much as I do like it. I would hate to ruin a good thing that way!

My daughter gave this to me for xmas and as I find the Lush shops too claustrophobic with all the strong scents I did not expect to like it. It came in a big bottle and looked very much like jam in a bottle so I was a bit reluctant to use. With the first use I am sold.Yes it is sweet and thick but it made me feel totally decadent and spoilt.Rich and with a strong scent of rose I wanted to use it all over.The scent stayed on my skin but just a whisper which made me feel lovely and clean and pampered. The only fault I found was the lid which is a little hard to open but the product inside is worth the struggle.

If you live roses, you will love the scent of this gorgeous shower gel. It has a real traditional scent which some kight find a bit too much, but I'm ok with this.

I got the 100ml bottle, which is the typical Lush shower gel bottle with the little flip lid. I find this a good sized bottle for the shower as anything bigger I find it harder to deal with.

The colour of this shower gel is the most amazing deep red, it looks simply gorgeous on my white shower puff. I have found that if you use a puff, you rwally dont need a lot of shower gel. It lathers really well and feels totally luxurious.

After you have rinsed off you are left feeling clean and refreshed and you smell amazing.

My whole bathroom smells like a fresh garden. I will repurchase this again!
