Token to the Forest Gods Toner Tab


This toner tab is super zesty.  It is a "green citrus" as opposed to the "orange citrus" smells.  I usually classify my citrus scents into one of those two categories.  Orange is more of a wake up scent that is bright and sunny.  Green is more relaxed and low maintenance in the energy department. 

This toner tab is nice on the skin.  As with the other tab, I didn't notice a huge difference after the vapor sauna.  However, after a couple of days spraying the leftover water on my skin, it woke up my pores and left me brighter. 

On the site, it says that this tab is incredibly awakening, but for me it put me to bed nicely.  I was sound asleep and refreshed at the same time.

Vitamin E Toner Tab



My blind draw out of my toner tab bag (containing all four toner tabs) had this little guy chosen as the guinea pig.  I must say, I was intimidated by this thing.  I remember the SA in my LUSH store asking me "are you SURE you know how to use that?".  Ummm.....yeah?????  Per the website:  I filled a heart shaped bowl with steaming hot water and dropped it in.  I covered my head with a towel and hung over the bowl while the orange scented vapor washed over my skin.  I have to admit, it was impossible not to come up for air a few times.  Breathing in straight vapor that is scented doesn't feel natural.  After the vapor had cooled a bit, I went to the mirror and...............nothing much.  But, I noticed that after a while, my skin appeared to be more even.  I saved the extra water in a spray bottle and kept it in my fridge for a couple days, spraying myself day and night.  Also, I sprayed it all over my body when I got home from work.  It's getting hot in Phoenix, so this feels AMAZING.  Overall, it's a fun little pick-me-up that isn't too fussy or expensive.  I plan on doing this again!

Demon in the Dark Soap




















This is the perfect soap for any man in your life.  It is by far, the most masculine scent that I have encountered using LUSH products.  At the same time, it has enough priss to be suitable for a girl!  It looks like hell but smells like minty heaven.  It also has apple in it....go figure.  It looks like hell but smells like Eden.  Interesting.  Anyhow, the lather is nice and thick and the scent is muted.  It didn't do an incredible job at moisturizing my skin but left it feeling super clean and minty.  It was almost like a breath mint for my body.  Trust me, in Arizona when the summer comes...the body does need a breath mint.

So....cool off and enjoy some heaven and hell and check it out on LUSH's site!

Banana Moon Soap



This is a banana explosion.  It is over-ripe bananas begging to be baked into sweet, hot banana bread.  It also looks just like a slice of yummy, fresh-baked banana bread.  Don't let the website photo fool you....in person it is much more beautiful.  If I didn't know any better, it would be in my mouth.....not cool haha!  All this aside, the scent is a little strong.  It took me some getting used to but I love it now.  It also love it on my skin after I use it.  It mutes into a delicate veil of almost cherry-banana.  It doesn't lather that well but I'd attribute that to the different layers and textures in it.  The bottom lathered more, but the top was exfoliating.  It is a great all-in-one bar!  My skin is soft afterward and feels glowing.  You MUST get a piece of this calorie-free treat at your nearest bake sale....er.....LUSH store!

Alkmaar Soap


 
Welcome to tropical paradise.  Don't mind the fact that LUSH couldn't spell the name of their soap properly! LOL  This soap smells super tropical!  It reminds me of Banana Boat tanning oil on a hot summer day.  Blame it on the coconut oil.  This soap also has jasmine and honeysuckle.  I would say it is a coconut drink.  The scent overpowered me in the shower though, turning into a sickening sweet aroma.  The lather was nice but the soap dried out my skin.  I had to moisturize afterward!  I think this soap would be best for someone who doesn't have dry skin and loves the scent enough to love it more when magnified in the shower.  One of my favorite things about it though is the pure, white color.  Simple and elegant.

Red Rooster Soap


The scent of this soap reminds me of every cinnamon candy I've ever tasted.  It is a burst of cinnamon that wakes you up and satisfies your sweet tooth all at the same time.  It is supposed to be a mix of orange and cinnamon but I didn't catch the orange in it :(  I didn't much care for the soap in general.  My skin didn't react badly or favorably to it.  Also, the scent wore off with drying off.  The lather was sub-par.  I would love to have this scent in a bath bomb or a body spray.  The scent is so much fun!
