"Honey I Washed the Kids" is a handmade soap from Lush infused with honey, bergamot and sweet orange, topped with a layer of beeswax on top. When I purchased this soap, I wanted something that would moisturize and sooth my sensitive skin, and since this has honey, citrus and aloe in it, I thought it was going to do the trick. Apart from the great ingredients, the scent totally won me over. It is light and sweet, almost good enough to eat!

The soap is very dense, unlike your regular bar of drugstore soap, which is really just a detergent that strips your skin of essential moisture. I like the amount of lather this produces and it feels so smooth against the skin and has the right amount of slip. Since it is a dense soap, it has lasted me longer than the average drugstore brand. The benefits I've noticed after using Honey I Washed the Kids is that my skin feels very soft and moisturized afterwards.

As for the top layer of beeswax, I feel this is only for decorative purposes. It did not work as an exfoliator, which I thought it would be and it began to crumble off when the soap started to wear thin around the edge. Apart from that, I think this would be a great soap for every member of the family. The scent isn't overpowering (unfortunately it doesn't linger on the skin) and it is mild enough for sensitive skin types.

I got this at Lush last week. I was aghast at how expensive they were for a soap. But i thught, maybe theyre worth the price. So I got a $10 serving of the soap and immediately tried them when I got home.

I first cut them into 4 pieces because I did not want to waste any of the soaps! I also bought a soap dish especially for the soap as well.

The smell was so good you think you want to take a bite out of it. It lathered really well and of course, I used up a chunk quickly too.
It made the whole bathroom smell like honey and citrus scents but I was disappointed that it did not linger on my skin after that delicious shower..

I really loved this honey soap which i bought at my local lush shop. It smells delicious and is ultra moisturizing in the shower.. I almost used up the whole thing by now so I have to go and buy more. hehe..

I love the smell. It's a light sweet honey smell but the smell does not stay on your skin. I don't get the purpose of the honeycomb thing on the top. It's very rough on my skin. Keep this soap dry otherwise it won't last but a few washes. I can't say it's the most moisturizing soap I've used but it does help heal the skin.

This soap just melts in the shower producing a very light lather that leaves my skin feeling very smooth. It is a soap and will be a little more drying on the skin than say a body wash enriched with shea butter; I would compare it to Dove or Olay soap. A lovely feature to this product is the bees wax exfoliating layer which feels amazing when you run it over your skin! Do keep this product dry between uses though as it does melt instantly when it comes into contact with water and unfortunately does not last as long as regular soap. I'd like it better if the smell lingered on the skin but the fragrance doesn't linger much after you wash it off.

I love anything honey, which means I really love Lush's Honey I Washed The Kids soap. Honey is a must in my life, so I love getting clean with this particular bar of soap. It's real honey! You can't go wrong with that.
