Northern Lights Review

Northern Lights

Refreshing Neon Phenomenon

$7.95 for 100g


When designing new products, inspiration can come from the most faraway places. For our neon wonder, Northern Lights, a few of our lucky LUSH inventors traveled to Finland and were taken by the midnight light show called the aurora borealis. Once back in the UK they enlisted the help of our Finnish perfumer Pia, who created a phenomenally fresh scent that recalls the chilly adventure to the land of the midnight sun. She combined pine needle, cypress and lime oils to create a refreshing woodsy fragrance that’s as unique as the phenomenon this soap was inspired by.

FEATURES

  • Fresh from the forest: We captured the land of the midnight sun with a fresh, woodsy fragrance of pine needle and cypress oils.
  • Neon wonder: We wanted to recreate the stunning neon lightshow of an aurora borealis with this uniquely bright soap.
  • Midnight Sun: Lime oil adds a refreshing citrus scent and keeps your skin toned and bright.

Overall...

I really liked this soap!

I love using it in the morning to wake me up since the scent is so refreshing and energizing. It lathers amazingly, just like any other LUSH soap, and is moisturizing too. The scent is also unisex, my boyfriend loves this scent, and I actually gave him a piece to use.

The one drawback to this soap is that the colouring does tend to bleed when left near water, so I recommend leaving it off to the side until you use it.


Overall, I love using this soap when I want to wake up, and I think it will be a great soap for the summer!

I would recommend this to anyone.
