Customer Reviews

Nice and simple5
I'm a big fan of Lush products, but one of the major things that turns me off about their soaps is that I find many of them smell way too strong, or too much like something that I'd want to eat rather than wash myself with. Because of that, Sea Vegetable is one of my favorite soaps. It doesn't melt away as quickly as some of the others, looks really pretty (for those of us that like to be distracted by things in the shower), and cleans really well. The scent is present, but mild.

I can see why people would say that this soap is a bit boring compared to other LUSH products, but for those of us who aren't too keen on a complete olfactory attack with every shower, this "boring" little soap is definitely the way to go.

Deep Blue Sea5
Lush advertises this soap as an invigorating bar that's suitable for guys and gals alike, and I'd say they're spot on. This deep blue bar (it's generally much bluer than the picture) is covered with sea salt and seaweed, which offer a nice bit of exfoliation when using the bar. The scent is a strong lime and lavender, which smells fresh, is invigorating, and isn't especially girly. This is a glycerin-based soap, so it's not as bubbly as Lush's creamy soaps, but it still produces a good, fragrant lather. There are a couple of drawbacks of which one should be aware. First, this is a very pricy soap, at over $7 for 100g, and I do find that Lush soaps melt away fairly quickly. Second, be aware that all of the exfoliating materials (sea salt and seaweed) are on the top of the bar, and they tend to get used up before the bar is done. These issues aside, I love this soap. It works particularly well with Lush's Big Blue bath bomb, which has a similar scent.
