Lush Miranda Soap Review

I'm a huge fan of Lush soaps. I have very dry skin and I find these clean really well without leaving my skin a flaky mess. I've been using Lush soaps exclusively for a year now and have been trying out all the different scents. Miranda is one that I keep consistently reordering for its delicious fruity scent. I find that these soaps don't always handle a wet, steamy bathroom environment very well if you leave them exposed, but I get around this by cutting off a small piece to use in the shower and storing it in a water tight soap dish. A small piece will normally last a few weeks and I leave the rest of it in my drawers to make my clothes smell amazing.

I really liked this soap when I first smelled it, I'm a sucker for anything tutti-fruity and this one's smell definitely didn't disappoint!

But that's where it stopped for me. The soap itself lasted a week before it was finished, and I found that to be a bit of a let down especially after trying other Lush soaps that lasted three to four times that long. $8 a week for soap is a little expensive haha!

Normally I use shower gel, but I bought different soaps on the boxing day sale to try them out and I was the most disappointed with Miranda.

I've found that it doesn't make as much foam as the other soaps and I had to apply it twice to three times every time to be able to wash my whole body.

The soap itself is also much more moldable than the others and it doesn't hold up well in heat. If you touch it you leave your fingerprints on it and it gets dirty really really easily.

I'd repurchase to put it in my room to smell good, but for actual use I probably wouldn't repurchase.

Oh my god I love this soap. I love the look, I LOVE the smell, and it makes my skin feel soo good and I smell wonderful! It is fruity, (and I'm not usually a fruity fan), it looks funky, I love how Lush makes all their soaps look so interesting. And even before I started using this soap in the shower I had it sitting on my duchess for a month,while I was using all my other Lush shower products :), and just the fragrance in the room was divine. I'm a real Lush convert these days, and I love trying all their new products.

I purchased a 100gm piece of this kind of on a whim when I placed an online lush order. It was down to $4 and I thought why not?

This comes in just a basic clear plastic bag with a white printed out sticker displaying the weight and the name of the soap. It's definitely not flash, but lush never claim to be flash on packaging! I'm not sure how well the soap would survive long term in this packaging but it should be ok for a while.

My soap looked a bit different to the one pictured. It is actually mostly a pastel green. I does have a few coloured bit's in it as well. The beauty of lush's soaps are that they will all look slightly different as they are cut off a larger piece of soap. I think it looks pretty unique and if you had a few different pieces of unpackaged lush soap, it would be pretty easy to recognize this one.

I don't really know what I was expecting this to smell like, maybe citrus? When I first smelled it, I was delighted. It reminds me of fruity candy. It's super sweet but not sickly at all. I'm currently just using this as handsoap, I love how it leaves my hands fragranced for a good couple of hours after using it. I find this lathers up really well too. I also like how this doesn't seem to go all gross and squishy too. It has retained its harder texture.

I'll definitely buy this again in the future. I did go overboard in the lush sale so I don't need any soap for a while anyway! If you like sweet scents, I'd definitely recommend this one.

I bought this soap on line from Lush, with some other products – because I LOVE Lush!! I love that this soap has lots of lovely oils in it.

Mine doesn’t look like the picture, and is completely light green, with a rectangular/wedge shape.

I love the smell, and love that it lingers in the bathroom and on my skin.

It lathers nicely, and I don’t find it drying, though my skin initially feels a little tight after using it, but find that it leaves my skin feeling soft and clean.

All I can say is YUM. Another product that lives up to the Lush reputation.

Lush truly has the best smelling soap. I tried this a couple of times & I love it. Has a nice fruity scent & so gentle on the skin.

This soap has so much goodness in it. Leaves my skin feeling so refresh and soft.

I got this for xmas and oh my goodness the smell is heavenly! Can definitely smell the kiwifruit and ylang ylang. It is quite big for the price. Ok you don't usually expect to pay $8 per 100g of any other soap but Lush is always the exception and Miranda Soap is well worth the money!

I found that the soap gets up a great lather when I use it but it wears down very fast and doesn't last as long as any other soap I have used. I love the mixture of colours and shapes in the soap and I love that it's all natural and best part it's animal testing free!!!

My body after using it smells extra yummy and will leave our house smelling good too. I was hoping it would be great for my dry and sensitive skin but alas after use it dries it out immensely! I have to use a body wash afterward to inject some moisture back in to my body which is a bit disheartening because it takes the smell away a bit.

I have found a good use for it now though. Instead of all over body cleansing it is now used as my legs shaving soap which it works well for because I moisturize after shaving anyway so it's a win, win situation for both parties!

I have to admit that I love Most Lush products and this one is no different. As with most Lush products this one caught me at first smell. The Miranda soap smells fruity and delicious and really helps you to feel freshened up after having used it. I tend to use Lish soaps very quickly because I just can't stop so can't really comment on the longevity of them for others. This soap leaves my skin feeling clean and soft and is a pleasure to use.

I picked this up quite some time ago in a big haul from Lush and recently found it in my box of Lush goodies. I'm not usually a big fan of soap as I can often find them quite drying, but this one just smelt too good to resist.

I love with Lush that you can just pick as much or as little as you want and get them to cut a piece for you. That way you don't have to buy too much and find you don't like it. The piece that I got is all the creamy white colour with no colour showing on the outside. It smells delicious and fruity, really makes you want to use it. It reminds me of the overall scent of Lush every time that I walk in.

This goes on the skin quite creamily, and you can build up a good lather with it. Unfortunately when I washed this off it did leave my skin feeling quite tight (although not as bad as other soaps), although extremely clean. For that reason, soap will never be my first choice.

I usually can't use soaps as they dry out my skin too much so I was a little hesitant when I received this as part of a gift but after one use I loved it! Didn't dry out my skin at all so it was great
