Lush Big Buffy Body Butter Exfoliating scrub for your seating area. Use Buffy on wet skin, in the bath or the shower, to make you softer and smooth to the touch. Buff yourself all over, paying special attention to your backside; rinse off the ground up exfoliating bits of rice, almonds and beans and pat yourself dry. There’s no need for body lotion after a Buffy, because the cocoa and shea butters in it moisturise your skin beautifully. Slay that cellulite.

smooth skin

This lush body butter is similar to a soap but not quite. You use it in the shower after you have washed yourself for extra silkyness. The body butter itself has exfoliating beads In it to smooth out rough skin. The scent is quite organic. After using this on my body my skin feels amazing. This is my favourite body butter in the lush range.

Tips: Don't let the water run onto it as it doesn't last long

Has its good points and its bad

I'm on a bit of a scrub obsession lately, and I thought this would be an interesting one to try. It comes in a bar form, and is quite solid (like you'd expect a soap to be)

The scent is unusual... it's a bit earthy, and definitely not my usual 'go-to' scent, but I actually didn't mind it.

What I am not a fan of is how sharp the scrubby bits are! They feel a bit too scrape-y against my skin. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but it just isn't really my favourite scrub.

I also found the bar format a bit inconvenient overall. I couldn't keep it in the shower for fear of it dissolving, so I find myself having to reach out to the shelf to use and return it when I'm in the shower. Lush do sell a tin that you can store it in, but I wasn't keen on a metal tin in my shower (rust) and I thought the price for the tin was a bit steep for what it was.

What I did like is how wonderfully moisturising it is! This is a really beautiful moisturiser, leaves my skin feeling really silky!

Would I buy it again? I doubt it. I can see where it would be ok if you're travelling, easy to carry... but for every day use I don't think it's the best choice. Go with the Rub Rub Rub shower scrub!

Too oily and rough

I found this left my skin more oily that moisturized, also it was a bit of a harsh exfoliator, I now only use it on my feet and knees and its amazing for those areas, but not the rest of my body. Its a novelty item not a necessity

Tips: Use on your feet, it amazing for that

Best exfoliating scrub ever!

I just bought this last week and there hasn't been a day that I haven't used it! This product smells so amazing and works really well. It exfoliates and leaves a layer of oil that soaks into your skin to leave you feeling moisturized and relaxed. If you're a person that gets backne as well, it will do a good job on clearing it up. I have already noticed a difference in the way my boyfriends skin looks already. Completely recommend to anyone!

Lush Big Buffy Body Butter

It's not that I outright disliked this product, but I was a little underwhelmed and disappointed with it. I use a lot of Lush products and I think this has been the first one that I haven't loved. I received a generously sized sample of this with another purchase.

The rich creamy scent was delicious but not as strong as some other things I have tried. I found that it melted away really quickly and left a hell of a mess in the shower. Unless I was using it wrong, I figure that you're meant to wet the bar and apply it to your skin like you would with a bar of soap?

It did an okay job of exfoliating but I wouldn't have deemed it better than anything else I have tried. As for lasting moisture, the initial soft feeling was great but it felt like it was gone as soon as I dried off and I had to use a separate moisturiser.

It wasn't a terrible product but I feel there are better things I could use in its place. I probably wouldn't go out and buy this.

Smooth as a babies bum...

This product is gorgeous. I use it in the bath, and it leaves me with the most supple and smooth skin. I love how it makes my skin feel, although it does stay quite 'wet' feeling for a while which can be a bit annoying. BUT I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who gets unwanted shaving rash, and bumps because this product helps a lot! :)

Buffy Buff Buff

This product is one of my all time favourite lush products! I've been using this for a few years now and will continue to use it.

This particular body butter does get used up more quickly than the others but it's so good that I don't really care that much, providing I have the funds to replace. I use this over my entire body before I get out of the shower and left it soak in for a while to get full benefits. Afterwards my skin is so unbelievably soft it's insane! My entire body is like a baby's bottom hehe. It exfoliates, adds moisture and also helps get rid of these weird red rash patches on my arms. NOTHING has ever been able to heal these patches expect buffy, which is amazing because they were so embarrassing! To use I quickly run it under running water and rub all over my body paying particular attention to any real dry areas.

Buffy has a really subtle scent so if you don't like strong smells you will like this. It's also good because it doesn't interfere with your perfume. I love using this before I go on a date so they can be like, "wow you have such beautiful soft skin!" :D.

Would I recommend? Hell yes! This product is amazing and so worth it. It even makes my feet nice and soft which is usually a mission. It comes in two sizes so if you don't want to commit to the big size you don't have too. I also think it may come in an even smaller size in gift packs.

Tips: Keep it somewhere where it can dry out otherwise it won't last as long and it will melt. DO NOT keep it in the shower.

Rough!

I have brought this a couple of times now thinking I'll try it again to see if I can fall for it... NOPE

So to look at its not as exciting as the other lush products and cretin ally doesn't smell like them! Imagine a hard block of butter with sand through it. This is what it's like.

In the shower you need to have it kept away from the water on something so the moisture can drip off it as well.

Wet you skin and gently rub the bar on. It's good for exfoliating, it's good for on your legs/bikini area to reduce ingrown hairs. Rub it on the sole of your feet to keep the heels getting dry and cracked.

As this is sort of soft when it gets wet, it's like watching money melt down the drain. I guess depending on your financial situation if you would mind it being used up so quickly.

I find that I still need to moisturize after using it.

Tips: I would use it to shave legs with once a week for a good exfoliating session

Was Okay

I got this product in a Lush gift pack and was really excited to try it. It looked intriguing and I was interested to see how it worked.

The smell was average. I like quite a strong scent and to me this was more earthy which is something I wouldn't personally purchase. I found using it straight under water melted it to much so I had to wet my body, make sure my hands were warm and then use it. It moisturised well but I didn't find it gritty enough to exfoliate. This product didn't excite me much and to be honest I forgot about it till recently when I threw it out. I did use over half but found it didn't do a lot so just got rid of it. U would not purchase this one again but have purchased a different one in hopes I'll like that one more!

Exfoliating, Nourishing, quick and easy... but

This was something i got in my Lush Legends pack, honestly, it didn't excite me, i didn't even notice it. It wasn't until i went into lush and tried it, that i needed to buy it.. and then had the happy moment when i realized i already had it! Yay.

This bar comes in a small square, and is a bit smaller than the palm of my hand to give you an idea of the size. For the size, i do think this is quite pricey, and not an economical as i would have hoped. However, i did receive it in a pack, so i'm not too disappointed.

They way this works, is you use it in the shower and apply it to wet skin, just like you would a bar of soap. It gently exfoliates,and hydrates at the same time. It feels nice using it, but i have to say that you do go through a lot of product. I'm not sure if that's just me personally. I used this all over my body because i want to exfoliate and hydrate my whole body, and i found because of this, this product only lasted a few weeks :(.

I will say my skin did feel smooth in the shower, but the buffy bar left a residue where i felt like i had to wash my skin again to get rid of it, but once my skin was dry, it felt silky smooth and amazing!

I still feel undecided on this product. It has pros and cons. It did exfoliate, but i dont think it did anything to my cellulite. It also hydrated my skin, but left a residue in the shower that i didnt like, but once my skin was dry it felt amazing. At this stage, i won't be repurchasing this product at this stage, but might reconsider in the future
