King of Skin by Lush

KING OF SKIN BY LUSH

Rima Prakas

Price: $15.95 CA for 95g

My skin combination: Dry skin, especially in winter

What it claims to do: This product claims to be a super buttery in shower moisturizer, that makes dry skin smooth, soft and flexible, it also claims to soothe irritated skin.

How to use: Rub the bar in to wet skin after rinsing body with soap or body wash, massage it into the skin and rinse off under a spray of water and pat dry. I rub the bar over my body and then use my hands to massage it in deeper and I stand under warm water for a minute or two before drying.

What I like about it: This product is very moisturizing, it lasts all day and it has a very subtle fragrance to it. It also helped reduce the time I take to get ready in the morning as it eliminates the need to moisturize my body after showering. It also comes free of packaging, thus eliminating waste products, so anyone who aims to reduce the plastic usage in life, this is a good step towards it. My skin neither feels dry, nor does this leave an oily film on my skin.

What I didn't like about it: The product is not as lasting as I hoped it would be. It lasts about a month at most. But that can be forgiven considering the pros of this product.

Is it Worth it?: Absolutely. This product reduced my time doing my morning routine and helped to polish my body better for the day. This is a must try for anyone who doesn't want to invest too much time moisturizing the whole body after drying off.

My ratings: 4/5

Update: this product is discontinued by lush.
