Lush The Godmother Soap Review

As an outdoors girl and with 4 kids running around I am forever washing hands wether it's mine or the kids so good soap is necessary!

The godmother soap is amazing. It smells like cherries it smells good enough to eat. (I have noticed teeth marks in it so 1 little person has tried) it is a very deep red colour and the texture isn't like your usual soap it is quite soft almost like butter. It doesn't lather up too much I do however find it hard to hold and get a decent grip on it as Its in a cube/square shape but I'm sure this will be less of a problem the more we use it.

This also needs to be stored on a rack to dry as I let it sit on the bathroom vanity for a couple of hours and it did go a bit mushy on the bottom where it sat. It does fill the whole bathroom with the amazing scent it is just delicious

This is such a lovely moisturising soap my hands haven't gone rough or dry since using it and once your hands are dry you get a lovely cherry slightly rose smell and they are lovely and soft. I Don't think I could ever go back to using regular soap after using this

When I was first introduced to Lush, I had no idea what was good and what wasn’t, so when me and my friend did an online order together I was so amazed when the package arrived and I could smell this amazing sweet scent. I was so happy and excited to see where the scent was coming from, only to find it was a product my friend had ordered, not me. And surprise, it was a bar of soap? Not something that I was initially drawn to when I first started buying from lush, but after smelling it... I knew I needed it in my life.

I found this mound of heaven when I went to a physical lush store, and my gosh I can’t believe that even when I saw it, I underestimated it. Honestly, even though it is the most beautiful purple colour, with a slight ombre effect with a dark top to it, it didn’t draw my attention amongst all the other soap on the table such as honey I washed the kids which just had a more special spark about it. It wasn’t until my friend actually pointed it out, and I picked up a slab of soap and smelt it when I realised what it was. I obviously brought some, but don’t ask me why, it took my about 2 months after I brought it before I actually started using it.. Weird I know.

But when I started using, honestly guys! Love. Love at first touch, smell, and lather. If I knew how to write drooling in text without making it look like a typo I would! It smells ah-mazing! Seriously. And I feel like even that is an understatement. Its sweet, but not sickly sweet, it just has a nice depth to it which is warm, sweet, and comforting without smelling tacky and cheap.

In the shower, it lathers up not like a soapy immensely foamy lather, but more like a creamy lather. I don’t know if that makes sense, but that’s what it is and it not drying at all. If I scrape the soap when its wet, the soap has a jelly consistency to it, which could be why the lather is like that.

This item has gone from not even being on my radar, to becoming one of my favourite Lush products. And that is saying a lot because Lush has got some amazing goodies to share. If you like sweet smells, you need to try this! Also, if you don’t like sweet smells, you should still try this because I’m pretty sure it could convert you! I’ve heard this scent is the same as the snow fairy range, and if this is true, I will be stocking up on that when it comes out.

I was so lucky to have received this as a gift from a beautiful someone I will refer to as my fairy godmother xx

The scent is so sweat and candy like... raspberry notes and maybe a hint of vanilla... I just sat and sniffed it for the first couple of days (so delicious). The colour is a deep reddish pink semi opaque tone.

In the shower the bar foams easily and like any glycerin based soap it cleans well and leave the skin feeling almost squeaky clean. I didn't experience the feeling of dry skin after use or anything bad at all. The aroma lasts a little while on the skin thankfully, and I could still smell it for around a hour or so before slipping off to sleep (unfortunately you don't wake up with the scent still)

My bathroom smells delicious still though with what is still left of the block. I would bath using only this scent for all eternity if I could... heavenly!

I've always been against using soaps but after receiving a bar of The Godmother in a gift pack it was a new addiction activating, now I only want Lush soaps while I shower and have a box full to ensure I don't run out.

The godmother comes as a freshly cut chunk off of a huge cake of soap, in an intense shade of pink this soap has a gel look to it like glycerine soaps where you can just about see through it and as the hot water warms it, it yields to your touch giving that gel texture which creates a great foaming suds action as you wash yourself.

Having this texture it manages to glide over your wet skin without friction and the fragrance once wet is just as intense as it is in soild dry state, a fave if you love sweet lollies scents, I actually prefer this over the snow fairy shower gel which started me develop a reaction to it after so many uses of it. The scent lingers long afterwards in the shower, as well as on your skin which my hubby loves! Room fragrance and skin cleaner all in one.

Haven't had any problems of the bar self destructing in the shower cubicle where it lives just sat on a wire rack out of running water area. A 100g bar lasts me on average a fortnight, however just lately I have discovered my husband preferring my Lush soaps over his normal manly protex bars which means I can buy more so no complaining here.

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. I got this a few weeks ago, and ofcours I knew it would be fabulous because it's Lush. It smells delicious, very lolly like. But not too sickly sweet. It has a great colour, very bright and inviting. Makes me feel lovely and clean after use and leaves my skin and bathroom smelling AMAZING!

The first time I went into Lush I sniffed out this soap and went directly to it. I'm crazy about the smell, and all my friends and family know that this is the one they have to buy for me now. It's honestly delicious (the same as Snow Fairy evidently, but I've actually never used that). Fruity and spicy and brilliant. The soap itself moisturises quite well, and I don't find my hands dry or 'squeaky' after using it. I like to have this by my kitchen sink, and I frequently find myself running downstairs to wash my hands there rather than with the other soap in the bathroom. As with all Lush products, you'll have to decide for yourself whether you like the smell. But the soap itself is an excellent, effective product, and I couldn't recommend it more.

I seriously heart Snow Fairy shower gel and hang out every year once my supply runs out until it comes back in stock again. When this soap was released I was so excited that I could have my favorite scent all year round. As with all Lush soaps this leaves my skin feeling beautifully soft and clean and I really enjoy using it.

The smell, the texture, the way it leaves my skin feeling! Gosh where do I start!?

I'm an avid user of bar soaps. As much as I love gels its much much easier to have a quick scrub with a bar soap IMO! And this one is a winner. I love Lush but i find some of their products to smell a little overpowering; with the godmother though its quit a light scent in the shower but it definitely lingers on my skin. It super enhances the smell of my perfumes that I wear too, especially the fruity ones.

My only qualm is that it does tend to melt away quite quickly. What can I say? I can't get enough!

I bought this soap last year in a two pack with rockstar. I'd never actually heard of this soap but when I found out it smelled like snow fairy, I couldn't wait to give it a try.

This is a pretty light pink colour and mine is just in a rectangular shape. I adore the bright, candy scent of snow fairy shower gel but this is a very mild version of that scent to me. With most lush soaps that I've tried so far, when they sit in my bathroom, even without being used, the bathroom smells so good. I don't notice that at all with this. I don't even really get much fragrance on my hands straight after I've used it!

It does lather well, and it also does leave my hands clean without over drying them. I know that because this is a lush soap, that it will be full of good ingredients but this isn't something I would buy again. Actually, I don't think I could even if I wanted to as lush is discontinuing this one.
