    Shower product staple!

    I use this as a daily face wash. I have combination skin, and this works well in that it gently exfoliates and gives me the moisture I need. Personally, I love the earthy, natural scent.

    Good scrub

    Great for sensitive skin. I would use a makeup remover before this cleanser because it doesn't remove all makeup. Cruelty free, great smell, natural and can help with acne.

    A gentle exfoliant for those with sensitive skin.

    I am torn with this product. For me personally, the price tag isn't worth it. I went to lush a few weeks back and the kind people working at lush were helping me pick out a cleanser. I tried this there and on first use was very intrigued. I am always looking for products that have multiple uses, such as this (cleanser and exfoliant). I was first pulled in as I was looking for something that may brighten my skin. I was sold there, but they did not have the product in stock and offered me a sample that lasted me over one week. You do not need much, she said to use a pea size and massage it in my palm with a little bit of water. This atfirat did not bother me, but eventually I hated it! I don't like the mess it makes and I lost a lot of product this way as it needed awhile to build the lather. I also did not see any brightening of the after 1 week. I do however like the exfoliating component as it is not to harsh on the skin (it's almonds after all). I will not be repurchasing.

    I'm not sure how I feel about this cleanser. It's kind of difficult to use. You take a bit of the cleanser and mix it with water to make it into a paste but I find I can never get it to the right consistency and wind up wasting some of it because it just becomes a liquid that runs out of my hand. When I manage to wash my face with it though it seems to do the job and doesn't seem too harsh for my face. I think the cleaning part itself is pretty good but it's annoying to use. I'd recommend it to people to try because the ingredients are good but it's not something I'd recommend whole-heartedly.

    I quite like this cleanser. The smell is a little strange but it made my skin feel quite clean. It is a little messy though, and I think if it came with a scoop of some sort, then I think a lot of people will like just that much more

    Initially, I didn’t like this product at all but it grew on me. I hated the texture of it, how I had to add water to the mixture before applying it on my face, and how messy it was to use! But after a week of putting up with the messiness, I noticed that my skin tone improved and I wasn’t as oily if I used this product the day before.

    I believe I bought the 100 g pot, which was $14. I’m used to buying drug store cleansers, so this was pricier than I was used to. But since I tried it before, I knew that it would be worth the price!

    The texture of the cleanser was something I have not seen before. I took a closeup, because I’m not too sure how to describe it. It is a bit moist and flaky, and a tad bit grainy.

    I am a confirmed lushie. I love everything about Lush and (almost) all its products.

    The whole natural, no packaging thing soothes my environmentalist worries while the delicious products feed my need for bath and beauty stuff! *sigh*. It really doesn't get any better than that.

    All that is god about lush is present in this product!

    I used to use another lush cleanser called "angels on bare skin" which is really lovely as well, but I found I needed something to battle occasional acne.

    So, herbalism was recommended to me by the lush staff as it has some abilities in that department.
    I've been using it devotedly ever since!
    It clears up breakouts, but leaves you moisturized as well. As a dry skinned person with some acne, this is an awesome departure from the norm for me.

    This scrub may seem a bit weird to use at first if you're not hip to the whole Lush thing, but its actually very simple. You jut take off a piece of the putty, rub it around on your face and rinse it off.

    It does everything you need a cleanser to do, exfoliates, moisturizes, fights breakouts!

    Long live lush!!

    No I'm not rating a piece of poop! This is a great face wash for oily and acne-prone skin. It smells bad but it works! I really like this face wash but I have to admit that the packaging sucks since it's placed in a plastic tub and I find it unsanitary when I have to put my fingers in there on a daily basis to cleanse my skin. In terms of use, you're supposed to use a pea sized amount added with a little water to turn it into a paste. I believe that there is a short shelf life for this (3 months?) - but I guess that happens when you choose to use natural products on your skin!
