Wheres The Peach and Pear ?
Review of Lush Each Peach And Twos A Pear by
kalliemaile
Advantages: Easy to use, not too greasy if rubbed in well, lasts ages.
Disadvantages: It is pretty expensive and it does not smell of peach or pear.
The majority of my Lush experiences have been limited to soap, however I reccently decided that having worked my way through a vast number of soaps and spending way too long in the bath because of this, I would try out some other Lush products.
A friend reccomended that I try the massage bars as they were lovely and good fun. She also told me that they were very good for stretchmarks and scars - I thought that was brilliant as I have not long had ... ...huge bag of samples of Lush soaps on ebay reccently I thought I would hve a look for some massage bars on there too, there were a couple listed and the one which instantly caught my eye was Each Peach ( And Twos A Pear ) - it sounded yummy, unfortunatly there was no description, it just said Lush massage bar brand new in sealed packet. It had a low price of just 99p plus £1 postage so I thought why not and entered my bid. It sounded very yummy as ...

Magic For Your Muscles
Review of Lush Wiccy Magic Muscles Massage Bar by
kalliemaile
Advantages: Gorgeous smell , soothes aches beautifully
Disadvantages: Expensive and the beans fall out
...one of the products from Lush I have come accross the Wiccy muscle massage bar and I am certainly glad I did, its a wonderful product in many ways !
I spend quite a large amount of my day on my feet as I work as a maternity assistent supporting women through their labours, I then have to make house calls and help with things such as washing up, baby bathing , ironing and shopping for new mums, by the end of the day my lower back can be rather sore ... ...I was lured into the Lush shop next to WHsmith by that wonderful mixture of Lush products ( ok so maybe that was not the closest place to buy a magazine - I think I knew along I wanted to go to Lush but I will not admit that to my partner who says my Lush collection is too big ! ) . The displays had been moved around and the massage bars were near the front of the shop, this one caught my eye straight away and as soon as I took a whiff I knew I had ...

Heaven in a bottle, for him at least.
Review of The Body Shop Sensual Ylang Ylang Massage Oil by
nursie_nursie
Advantages: Smells great and leaves skin feeling really soft.
Disadvantages: You need to shower after using.
...so knotted. To help relieve the pain and tension I will occasionally give him a massage. I find that without using a cream or oil it is a lot more difficult. Before buying this product I would use body lotion to make it as easy and pleasurable as possible.
I decided to get this to make massaging easier for me and better for my other half. At the time there were two others available but I liked the smell of this best. The others are lavender and ... ...for getting you both in the mood!
Although this bottle seems small at 100ml it will last a very long time as a little goes a long way. I have found that about the equivalent of a teaspoon full is enough for me to massage his shoulders and half way down his back.
This really does make massaging him easier for me as my fingers slide across the skin more easily and it isn't that oily that it feels like I am rubbing chip fat into him. He says it feels ...

Jo Malone gorgeousness.
Review of Jo Malone Pomegranate Noir Bath Oil by
starsforlovers
Advantages: Lasts for ages and smells wonderful.
Disadvantages: Price!
Jo Malone used to be the perfume brand of choice for every Sloane Ranger around but the girls got her groove back and her products are flying off the shelves. It's no wonder, the girl knows her stuff and it's hard to find more fabulous fragrances around. If you dont want to smell like every other woman standing on the bus this is for you :) I usually wear Pomegranite Noir (the scent) anyway but am so hopelessly obsessed with it that I had to indulge ... ...As with all of Jo Malone's products, the packaging is minimal and chic, it leaves the product to do the talking. And dispite the hefty price tag, this bath oil really is fabulous, when you sink into a steaming bath topped up with this, the day will literally melt away and you're left with glowing, scented, soft skin, perfect.
Even if you only splash out on it once in your entire lifetime, I reccomend you do, every gal deserves a little JM love. ...

Not a stetch mark in sight.
Review of Boots Mediterranean Massage Butter by
vickigroth
Advantages: Smells lovely, not expensive, works!
Disadvantages: none
I bought this from Boots after receiving a voucher for a half price tub. I was about 12 weeks pregnant at the time and had read a review of this in Mother and Baby. I was anxious not to get stretch marks.
The body butter is thick and creamy but it rubs in well leaving a lovely orange smell. Its not too oily so I was able to get dressed straight after using it. I used it every day, initially just in the morning but then in the last couple of months ... ...when the get pregnant as its such a bargain price and a fantastic product. Forget all these expensive stretch mark creams, for £5 (and often on half price with boots advantage card vouchers) you can smell lovely and avoid stretch marks.
A must for any pregnant mum to be. ...
