The Comforter Body Scrub from Lush

Today I am reviewing The Comforter Body Scrub, one of the five chosen to be made by the Lush Community.

Back on the very first day that I ever visited a Lush store, I came out with a The Comforter bubble bar. The Comforter is a hugely popular Lush-scent-family and rightly so as it’s delicious!

The Comforter scented product line is huge, several of the products I have most recently reviewed include the Xolo bath bomb, The Comforter shower gel and Love Struck bath bomb.

The Comforter body scrub is the same two colours as the bubble bar equivalent, dark pink and white. Both colours are blended together creating an almost tie die like pattern in the pot.

The Comforter body scrub contains a long list of ingredients, some of those included are, caster sugar, fair trade organic cocoa butter, organic almond oil, extra virgin coconut oil, bergamot oil, blackcurrant absolute and cypress oil.

The fact that the, The Comforter body scrub is a sugar-based scrub had me very excited as, as much as I love the salt based scrubs, the finer texture and consistency that sugar scrubs have – I feel, just do a better job exfoliation wise.

With sugar scrubs having a finer texture they aren’t as harsh on the skin but still get the job done – exfoliating your skin perfectly all while moisturising it too. The texture of The Comforter body scrub has an almost marshmallowy texture, reminding me a little of kinetic sand.

The Comforter body scrub smells as its name suggests, comforting. It’s mouth-wateringly good, reminding me of a bowl of mashed juicy blackcurrants. It makes me want to drink a cup of hot blackcurrant squash.

To use, I scoop out about 3 fingers worth of the body scrub per shower; This amount can easily scrub your whole body… You could possibly get away with less but I’m greedy, especially when it comes to anything Comforter scented!

With just a small amount of water, The Comforter body scrub turns into a silky yet perfectly scrubby paste that simply glides across your skin, taking with it any dead skin and dirt. As it buffs away all of the nasties it also soothes and hydrates your skin. – There’s no need to moisturise once you’re out of the shower saving you time and money.

It’s an excellent product for both hydrating and exfoliating skin leaving it appearing brighter and refreshed in just seconds, in short, it is effortless skin perfection.

After using The Comforter body scrub its yummy scent remains on my skin for the best part of the rest of the day.

Overall, I love The Comforter body scrub. I would love for it to become a mainline product as it’s that good; Alongside the Posh Chocolate body scrub I think it may be my favourite of the Lush Community scrubs!

Posh Chocolate Body Scrub from Lush

With a brand new year comes brand new Lush products, and I’m amazed at just how many of them are body scrubs!

A brand-new body scrub has not only featured in the latest Lush Kitchen subscription box but also in the 2025 Valentine’s Day collection. Lush have also just launched five more limited-edition body scrubs, each with scents selected by the Lush Community.

Today I am reviewing the Posh Chocolate Body Scrub – (one of the five chosen to be made by the Lush Community). I was lucky enough to receive a pot of it as a gift from Lush.

The Posh Chocolate body scrub is a continuation of the fairly new, Posh Chocolate scented product line. First, we had the Posh Chocolate body wash, followed by the Posh Chocolate shower gel. Both products (especially the shower gel) are huge hits with customers so when a body scrub equivalent was released it didn’t come as much of a surprise.

The Posh Chocolate body scrub contains a long list of ingredients, some of those included are, caster sugar, fair trade organic cocoa butter, organic extra virgin olive oil, cocoa powder, illipe butter, fairtrade organic mango butter, cocoa absolute, Australian sandalwood oil and vanilla absolute.

The fact that the Posh Chocolate body scrub is a sugar-based scrub had me very excited as, as much as I love the salt based scrubs, the finer texture and consistency that sugar scrubs have – I feel, just do a better job exfoliation wise.

With sugar scrubs having a finer texture they aren’t as harsh on the skin but still get the job done – exfoliating your skin perfectly all while moisturising it too.

The Posh Chocolate body scrub smells just like a tub of hazelnut and cocoa spread. I hate to state the obvious, but you’d be surprised at how many people do ask… Lush products aren’t meant to be eaten but if I was forced into eating one, I’d definitely reach for something from the Posh Chocolate line!

I scoop out about 3 fingers worth of body scrub out per use; This amount can easily scrub your whole body (you could possibly get away with less but I’m greedy). With a small amount of water, it’s easy to work the Posh Chocolate body scrub into a paste that glides across your skin taking with it any dead skin and dirt.

It’s an excellent product for both hydrating and exfoliating skin leaving it appearing brighter and refreshed in just seconds.

After using the Posh Chocolate body scrub its sweet chocolate scent remains on your skin for several hours. It leaves your skin smoother, brighter-in-appearance and well hydrated, there is no need to moisturise after using it – although, I wouldn’t say no to a Posh Chocolate scented body lotion!

Overall, I love the Posh Chocolate body scrub. I’m disappointed that, at the time of writing this review, it’s only available for a limited time as I truly believe it would do exceptionally well as a mainline product.

Turtle Power Body Scrub from Lush

The Turtle Power Body Scrub is yet another product from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle collaboration, TMNT x LUSH.

I was lucky enough to receive one in a surprise box sent to me by Lush. Thank you again, Lush!

All of the products in the TMNT x LUSH line are inspired by no other than the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise, and are also plastic free, Lush always do a plastic free July and the TMNT x LUSH line has showcased plastic free cosmetic products perfectly.

The Turtle Power body scrub is mostly purple and is created in the shape of a drain lid. In a dark green graffiti font, it says ‘Turtle Power’ on its top.

The Turtle Power body scrub shares its scent with several products that are firm favourites of mine; The Blackberry bath bomb, Sultana shower gel, Bewitched bubble bar, Bubble Lugosi bubble bar and Henny Penny bubble bar just to name a few.

Some of the ingredients listed for Turtle Power are, fine sea salt, organic illipe butter, fair trade organic mango butter, bamboo stem extract, murumuru butter, extra virgin coconut oil, organic shea butter, cream of tartar, kokum butter, organic jojoba oil, bergamot oil, olibanum oil and cornstarch.

The scent of Turtle Power is best described as sweet, fruity and a little woody. The blend of bergamot and frankincense is perfect if you need to wind down and chill out. I find it particularly effective when used just before bed. I always drop off a little easier after using a product with its scent.

The fine sea salt and bamboo stem extract are the magic ingredients that makes this body scrub such a good exfoliator and all of the butters and the coconut oil are what makes it so hydrating.

I love a solid body scrub and Lush haven’t produced one as good as Turtle Power since the Cherryish body scrub. Turtle Power is not quite as gritty as Cherryish but absolutely amazing at both moisturising and exfoliating your skin at the same time.

I first tested it out on my arms; I put the writing side of it, skin-side-first and very quickly a green scrubby lather came about. On the other arm I did the purple side first and a purple scrubby lather came about even quicker. After trying it both ways, I recommend using it purple side first as I feel as if the side with the writing on was maybe added to make it a little easier to grip.

I always really go to town with solid body scrubs and have used it twice now for all over my body, it’s a little smaller in size but still in one piece. I can see it lasting me a good few showers yet.

Overall, I LOVED the Turtle Power body scrub, I’d have maybe liked the scent to be a little stronger but other than that it’s a very good scrub!
