Took quite a while to be delivered too =(.  I really wanted to like the brand for their creativity and uniqueness.  I am willing to give them a second chance but I&#8217;m going to visit an actual store before I decide to splurge a little.  There are some products that I will not be repurchasing because their scents don&#8217;t appeal to me.  I call this my Part 1 review because to be fair, I have only tried 1 of their products (Smitten hand cream) so a Part 2 will be written (after use review).  Below are my initial scent impressions&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fairy Jasmine Bath Bomb:<\/strong> lightly sweet floral, okay scent, almost the size of a baseball<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Ex Factor Bath Bomb:<\/strong> sweet floral but not as floral as the fairy jasmine if that makes sense, okay scent, about 4.5 inches tall<\/p>\n<p><strong>*Shimmy Shimmy Sparkle Bar:<\/strong> light white chocolate scent, like this scent, love the glitter =)<\/p>\n<p><strong>*Glitterbug Sparkle Bar:<\/strong> delicate fresh herbal scent, nice scent, love the glitter =)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Marzibain Bubble Bar:<\/strong> fresh outdoorsy scent like evergreen or newly cut grass?, okay scent<\/p>\n<p><strong>*I Should Coco:<\/strong> light orange citrus scent- creamsicle, nice scent<\/p>\n<p><strong>Smitten Hand Cream:<\/strong> mild chamomile scent, i barely smell almond =(.  You will love this if you love a gentle natural scent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rock Star Soap:<\/strong> taffy scent, sorry but I also think it reminds me of pungent moth balls too =( <\/p>\n<p><strong>Trichomania Solid Shampoo:<\/strong> very mild scent, not sure if it really smells like coconuts<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll see&#8230;  I&#8217;m going to be using a few of the products in a couple of minutes so I will write again soon.  If the products are moisturizing and all that other good stuff, Lush products will have somewhat redeemed themselves.  Remember, this is only my opinion and what I like or dislike may not be the same as for you, so I urge you to go to a Lush store if you have been wanting to try their products.  I also believe that since many of their scents are so mild\/gentle that guys can use some of Lush&#8217;s products without fear of smelling girly.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just received my mini haul today and felt let down by the products I ordered.
