This one is bitter sweet...because I did not think it would last me as long as it did and as such it is no longer available at Lush. This soap was part of their Christmas range and is therefore only available during the Christmas period. So this one is on me...

I LOVE this soap. It smells like candy - so much so that I have genuinely wondered if it tastes how it smells. Obviously I have never actually tried to bite into it (because it is soap, so please do not go around trying to eat soap of any kind!) but this soap just screams Christmas and holidays to me. It has scents of pear drops, bubblegum and fruity notes that end up leaving you smelling like Love Heart candies. And what more could you want from a product?!

It also lasted me ages I bought it around the beginning of December as a nice little Christmas treat, and it only ran out about a week ago. And that is with every day use too. It lathered up into lovely fluffy bubbles and left my skin feeling very soft.

As with all things Lush, they are expensive when it comes to soap. Yes you could easily get a decent soap for far less money, but there is just something so decadent and extravagant about Lush soaps that - for me anyway - the price is quite justified. I believe this bar was £5, and seeing as how it lasted nearly 2 months, that to me is really good value for money. The bars are usually 100g (give or take a few grams) so you do get quite a lot of product when you think about other bars of soap. Personally, I support Lush because not only do their products smell good enough to eat, but their ethos as a company is very refreshing: A vast majority of their products are vegan friendly (with all other products being vegetarian friendly) and cruelty free, as well as Lush being one of the big players in campaigning against animal testing.

You can find out more about the Lush ethos here where they discuss the cruelty free, non-animal tested, vegan friendly manufacturing processes of their products and how they are working towards new campaigns against animal testing across the globe. For me, I would rather pay a slightly higher price of the products when I know the company are campaigning for a cause very close to my heart and for an important cause.

Overall: 9/10. This soap is absolutely delightful and is easily my favourite. The one downside it has is that it is seasonal, so unless you stock up massively over Christmas to last you the rest of the year, it is a long wait until it (hopefully!) returns again.
