Lush Sultana of Soap Review

Revel in Sultana’s majesty, and have a wash with the royalty of soaps. It looks like a fancy Italian dessert; a giant nougat cake topped with succulent currants and apricots. Smooth a slice of our soft decadent soap all over your body for a creamy lather and the most dazzling bergamot and olibanum scent. Your skin will be delighted and you’ll be left softer and smelling like a fancy candy shop with a touch of fruity sweetness. If you weren’t invited to the wedding, at least you can brush shoulders with royalty in the shower.

The best smelling soap ive ever tried

The caption says it all really. This soap smells AMAZING, and eatable and mmmm i just want to savor it. I got given this soap from a friend and I am in absoloute love with it. It is beautiful and delish and i can't rave about it enough.

It comes in a big ish bar which i cut in half so it didnt waste away in the shower and it has lasted me months already.. (the other half i keep in my underware drawer and it has scented them all to smell yum too)

This soap can be purchased from their website i have seen for people like me who don't live near a Lush.

Tips: It goes great paired with the argan body conditioner.. I smell tasty after my showers.. love love love

Total luxury

This looks so yummy and they say looks like nougat and it does, so it has a base and looks like it has little bits off clear soap in that part and there's a middle and a top layer and it looks like theres dried fruit in the top bit, it's a pale oatmeal colour and has wee flecks off a little herb type thing in it and the fragrance oh so sweet, bergamot and lollies and spice all in one, it's amazing it even has currants in it and spicey olibanum its so divine. The spicey olibanum must give the fragrance it's special yumminess to the scent. This is a soft creamy soap that makes an amazing fluffy creamy lather to smother myself in and makes me feel clean and my skin feels soft using this and I feel I've drenched my senses in happiness. The fragrance does linger on my skin for a while and I end up with a nice warm feeling and smell yummy. I nearly dry this soap when I've used it as I don't want it wasting away. For a splash of indulgence and a little bit of joy this is one soap I always buy. I don't find I get any off the rejuvenating that's meant to happen but for a soap it's so nice. When I'm down its my treat and my pick me up. Around eight dollars you get a block about the size of a bar off lux soap it does last and so worth it.

Tips: Spoil yourself and indulge in some

Scrumptious

It was actually my partner who convinced me to buy this. Although on the pricey side it was totally worth it. What a luxury. Smells gorgeous and relaxing.

Tips: Don't try the sultanas (hey it was a dare) they don't taste nice.

Worth the splurge

This is one of 2 lush soap that I buy even if its not on sale, saying that I only buy lush products during their 50% off boxing day sale, and even then only online because its ridiculous in the actual store, This soap is holy grail, its so creamy, and leaves my skin feeling so damn silky, (you will have fall out so watch the drain or get a drain catcher ) it smell like no other, its a very unique smell I cant find many other supermarket or cosmetics brands that offer a body wash that smells like this, its just so good. I feel so clean and silky afterwards.

Tips: Keep in a cool dry place

Smells incredible

I have a 100gm chunk of this soap that I purchased in the lush boxing day sale for around $5. I'd added it in as a spur of the moment thing, The sultanas in it kind of put me off and I wasn't really sure what to expect but I also wanted to try something new.

This soap is a creamy off white colour and you can see all the chunks of sultanas, apricots and something that looks like macadamia nuts chopped up (but it is soft so I don't think it is nuts!) It's a sort of soft texture so while you use it up fast I feel, it does lather up really well.

I just use this for handsoap and I really love washing my hands with it. They are left feeling clean without getting dry and they are left smelling amazing. The scent is hard for me to describe but it is quite heavy. This says sweet like a candy shop but I don't get a super sweet scent. More like a slight fruity, bit of light musk and maybe slightly spicy? It's very unique to me anyway, I haven't smelled anything like this before!

I'm really glad I still have another soap from a giftbox I bought to use when this one is done. I would definitely repurchase at some stage as well, I'd even pay full price not just on sale!

Sultana soap

So my latest buzz has been stocking up on the Lush range of soaps which I think are so irrestible, totally affordible and look great sitting in the soap dispenser. This one I was a little anxious to try as I havent used a product with Sultanas in it. I definitely was keen to give a go though.

The soap is a light pink colour with a generous mix of sultanas through the product. I love the creamy topping. when applied with water on skin it feels very creamy and soft, giving off a delicate velvty texture on to your body. The scent smells alot like apricots and berry. absolutely loved my soap.

Short but Sweet

Last Christmas my partner spoiled me with a Lush gift box called Sugar Sugar. I Only just pulled it out a couple of weeks ago. I still have one soap left over from my Boxing Day Haul. My haul lasted me a year . I'm hoping to do the same this year.

This soap was different to all my other soaps I've purchased from Lush it seemed to be softer. My Soap was round with a pretty motive on the edges of it. Inside of it you can see grainy bits of Sultana running through it. Like all Lush soaps the smell of it is amazing in my shower. I thought I would smell fruits of Sultana but instead it's a strong floral with a mild zing of spice.

With application it glides on creamy . I had no big bits at all in my soap. This scent lingers on my body for hours after a shower. Unfortunately it discintergrated fast in my shower. It didn't last over a weeks use. This may be due to the wet condition it was sitting it. I like that it didn't leave any soap residue in my shower.

I'm a huge fan of Lush soaps. The quality of them is worth the price. I would repurchase this because I did enjoy the scent and consistency. I just wish it lasted a bit longer.

That sucks that it didn't last long for you! I've also found that Lush products disintegrate much faster when kept in the wet.

New Fave Shower Product!

I was getting sick of going through shower gels and body washes, all packaged in plastic which in turn just kept adding to our waste being thrown away. It just seemed unnecessary and pointless! So I investigated Lush's soap range as a plastic-free alternative. Super impressed by what I found — Lush offers a great range of affordable soaps, so don't be put off by the fact that they also sell more pricey items. I also love the fact that when buying from Lush you're directly supporting a company that fights for animal rights, environmental awareness, and a whole host of other fantastic causes.

But onto the actual soap — Sultana of Soap is super lovely! The scent is very delicate and pretty, much less overwhelming than some of Lush's other products. It lathers nicely on the body and is super moisturising, my skin hasn't felt at all dry after using it. I've found that it lasts really well so far, been using it for about a week and have barely reduced the size of the bar at all. Will definitely be repurchasing.

Tips: Store the soap in a place where it can drain/dry easily — I keep mine in a dish on a shelf elevated out of the direct shower. This will help it to last much longer and prevent soap scum.

Another Winner from Lush

On a recent trip to Lush I picked up the Blackberry Bath Bomb and the lady there also recommended this soap - Sultana of Soap which I picked up. I love that you can choose the size of piece that you want so you can spend as much or as little as you want. So this time I picked a piece for $11. I also need to mention that the customer service at Lush is fantastic. If you are unsure of what you want they are fantastic at helping you out and guiding you around the store, because it is a bit overwhelming at the start!

This scent of this is really hard for me to describe. It is sweet and spicy, a wee bit musky. I love it a lot. I have figured out that that is because of the bergamot, I love Earl Grey Tea which has bergamot in it too. The scent does stick around for a wee while when you are out of the shower, but it doesn't interfere with your perfume at all. When you pick this up you know that it is creamy right from the start, it just starts to melt in your fingers. This isn't your usual soap. Then when you use this it glides over your body, it foams slightly but not nearly as much as a 'normal' soap. My favourite thing about this is that when you wash it off leaves your skin feeling clean but not tight like it is overly clean. My body skin isn't particularly dry but I feel like this would be awesome if you did.

I really like this soap so I feel like I will repurchase in the future. But with Lush there are always so many to try so it might not be the first one on my list.

Lush Sultana of Soap

I absolutely love Lush soaps and almost use them exclusively. I just change it up with different scents whenever I make an order and occasionally try the odd shower gel.

This one is different from the others for me because it's the first one I received as a gift, rather than picking it out myself.

To be perfectly honest, I'm not even that fond of sultanas and would never have thought of trying this out. Fortunately 'Sultana of Soap' is a bit of a misnomer. Yes it does contain dried fruit, but it doesn't smell like those dreaded boxes of raisins that we used to get at primary school as I feared.

The scent is amazing. It's intensely sweet and also exotically spicy thanks to the addition of frankincense.

Like other Lush soaps, it lathers up nicely and doesn't dry out or otherwise irritate my troublesome psoriasis-prone skin. They can melt a bit too quickly if you leave them wet and exposed in the shower, so I tend to chop off a small pieces to use and store it in a covered soap dish. I leave the "master blocks" of soap in my drawers to make my clothes smell good.

I'm really, really glad that a great friend gifted this to me. It will be joining my regular rotation of favourites.
