Beauty Review: Lush Glorious Mud body scrub

Price: £3.95 per cube
Where to buy: Lush
What it claims to do:
It’s a fizzy cube of rhassoul mud (cleansing clay from the Atlas mountains often used in mud masks) to be used all over the body to cleanse. The aloe vera extract is soothing, and the mix of sesame and vanilla will moisturise.
Mask your whole body for smooth, soft skin. It’s a combination of the basics of a mud mask with a little bit of Mo’s ballistic wisdom to get that fizzing effect that allows it to be smoothed over the body.

Our reviewer says:
I wasn’t sure about the scent of this product. It’s similar to their Crème Anglaise body lotion.  However, it’s worth giving it a whirl for the results on your skin. It leaves your skin so smooth. Your skin looks more moisturized instantly. It must be the sesame and vanilla.

The cube does fizz like a ballistic and I went a bit mad using the full thing in one go directly onto my skin. It is very messy too. My white shower and tiles looked very much like a beach by the time I was done. It’s probably not one to use on a work morning if you’re like me and prefer an extra 5 minutes in bed to 5 minutes spent rinsing down the shower afterwards!

I also used it on my feet as they don’t generally get much TLC and it worked a treat!

Final verdict:
This isn’t a product that I would use on a daily basis. It’s more for a weekend treat and it’s definitely a good one to use before applying something like Charlotte Island Body Tint. I give it top marks for leaving your skin feeling soft, supple and moisturised.
