Review: Lush Pot

11/14/2016 - 0 Comments

Now in a self-preserving formula, this is a gorgeous body lotion that does a lot of good - and not just for your skin! With a new, delicately floral perfume of yiang ylang and rosewood oils in a hydrating cocoa butter base, moisturising with (Charity) Pot will leave your skin subtly perfumed and touchably soft. Made with sustainably sourced ingredients from our SLush Fund Projects.

Water (aqua), Fair Trade Olive Oil (Olea europaea), Glycerine, Organic Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia chinensis), Moringa Oil (Moringo Oleifera), Fair Trade Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao), Stearic Acid, Fair Trade Shea Butter (Butyrospermum parkil), Triethanolamine, Geranium Oil (Pelargonium graveolens), Vanilla Absolute (Vanilla Planifolla), Fresh Aloe Gel (Aloe Secundiflora), Cetearyl Alcohol

Although I have oily skin my body craves moisturising lotions especially after showers or warm baths. And by now you are obviously familiar with my dry hands screaming for a cream every now and then.

Lush Pot is an ideal hand and body cream for me. I'd rather term it a lotion as I can smoothly spread it over my body. It does not feel greasy at all. In fact it provides the right amount of moisture your hands and body need and locks it in to your skin for quite a few hours.

The cream comes in the signature portable black plastic tubs which are travel friendly as you can fit them in to any hand bag you carry or probably store them in your car dashboards for those harsh winter days. 

This item is self preserving and is loaded with the good oils as enlisted in the Ingredients list (Olive, Jojoba, Moringa, Geranium Oils) and has Cocoa and Shea Butter.

The consistency is neither too thick nor too running and the pleasant floral scent with a blend of revitalising oils is just perfect to leave my skin hydrated and smelling good - although the scent does faint away quickly.

I have purchased several pots for myself and dad, as he has extremely dry and flaky skin and he seems to love the product.

Another good thing about Lush products is the customer being able to swap five (5) empty tubs for a fresh face mask. Now this is an add on motivation besides the Vegan tag for folks like me - we like to burn a hole in our pockets in order to indulge in these deliciously inviting Lush delicacies.

One thing that surprises me is the fact that this item is known as Charity Pot around the world but in the Middle East it is merely labelled as Lush Pot. Did anyone else notice that bit?

I really wonder why.

Although a little heavy on the pocket as compared to drug store lotions this product is definitely something to pick up the next time you wander come across a Lush Store. 

As for me - I'm certainly waiting to restock this again before the holidays begin.

Yes, yes and yes.
