The Bananaaa Shower Cream is one of four limited edition products that Lush have created in a collaboration with the recently released movie, Despicable Me 4.
I love the Despicable Me world and am very much looking forward to seeing the new film; But until I can, I’ll be using the products from the Lush X Despicable Me 4 line to get me through the wait.
I know you’re only here for a review on the shower cream itself, but I can’t not mention the Bananaaa shower creams absolutely epic packaging.
It’s a clear bottle, the shower cream inside is minion yellow and its label is the face of a minion. It’s so cute and clever!
Consistency wise the Bananaaa shower cream is a little runny, but it’s also very creamy. Hence it being a shower cream instead of a shower gel.
I know it’s an odd description, how can it be runny and creamy? It just is… I can’t recall a past Lush shower product like it.
Taking the blob photo below was a little difficult to do as the shower cream seems to have a mind of its own, how very minion of it!
I never have pouring cream on my deserts, but the consistency is very similar to that.
The Bananaaa shower cream contains plenty of skin hydrating glycerine, oat milk, coconut cream infusion, tonka absolute and vanilla absolute.
Fresh from the bottle the shower cream doesn’t quite smell of fresh banana, but it does resemble the foam banana sweets I used to love when I was little.
Some are comparing its scent to the Nana shower gel, but we’ll touch upon that more later…
Each of the Lush X Despicable Me 4 products are meant to share a fragrance, but I believe this is one of those scents that can’t quite be replicated across different formats. Each are a little different.
The Bananaaa shower cream lathers up easily and because it’s not very thick, a small amount of it goes a very long way.
Mixed in with the steam and hot-shower-water the scent of the Bananaaa shower cream really takes hold, engulfing you and your bathroom. It’s super creamy and lathers up well, it feels soft on your skin, it is almost like a body milk.
With it being so like a body milk I found the Bananaaa shower cream incredibly moisturising. The added glycerine really helps lock the moisture into your skin.
24 hours later my skin still feels incredible and still has the gentle foam-banana-sweet scent.
How the scent settles on your skin is what reminds me of the Nana shower gel. It’s not the same BUT elements of it are very similar.
Overall, I LOVE the Bananaaa shower cream, it’s been a while since Lush have released a shower cream and I’ve missed them. There’s just something about how a shower cream leaves your skin feeling that is a little bit more luxury than the average shower gel.
