LUSH Overview Series: Massage Bars, Body Butters and Body Lotions

This LUSH Overview is including Massage Bars, Body Butters and Body Lotions that are currently sold in stores, this is not for Retro items.  I am in no way affiliated with LUSH.  All opinions are my own.

                                                                     Massage Bars
Wiccy Magic Muscles: The worst smelling massage bar from LUSH but apparently it feels nice on your skin.  I won't try it because the smell is terrible.
Shimmy Shimmy: This massage bar shares the American Cream scent and has pink glitter in it.
Hottie: A slightly less nauseating version of Wiccy.  It is supposed to do the same thing, but it smells less terrible.
Heavanilli: This massage bar has the same Vanillary scent as the Vanilla Fountain Bath Bomb and Vanilla Dee-Lite Lotion.
Mange Too: A very mediocre smelling massage bar.  The scent on this one is really strong.
Each Peach (And Two's A Pair): Has the same lemongrass scent as the You've Been Mangoed Bath Melt.
Therapy: Perhaps the most popular massage bar.  I am currently using this one and I love it.  It leaves almost no scent on you and pairs so well with the Silky Underwear Dusting Powder.
Strawberry Feels Forever: The strawberry scent on this is very strong on the skin, when I put it on after a bath, it overpowered everything.  It smells good but the scent is too strong on the skin for my taste.  This one does not fit in the massage bar tins.
Soft Coeur: Does not smell like Honey I Washed The Kids, it smells like fake chocolate and a bit of honey.  Much too small for the price in comparison to the other massage bars.
Friends With Benefits: Smells bad.  Nothing else to say.
Peace: Smells bad and much too expensive.  $12.95 for a bad smelling massage bar when you can get a better smelling one for $9.95.

                                                                      Body Lotions
Dream Cream: Don't believe the hype, this cream did nothing for me.
Karma Kream: A body lotion with the disgusting scent of Karma.
Sympathy For The Skin: Doesn't get enough love.  Smells great and very moisturizing.
Coco Lotion: Can't say anything about it.  It has peanut oil in it, to which I am allergic.
Vanilla Dee-Lite: Very moisturizing, despite its thin consistency.
Charity Pot: A very nice lotion, I recommend this one.
Creme Anglaise: Smells bad, so I never tried it.

                                                                       Body Butters
Buffy: Very exfoliating.  I recommend using a dusting powder after since it leaves a greasy residue.
King of Skin: Solely moisturizing, no exfoliation in this one.
Aqua Mirabilis: Best one, moisturizing, no residue, not abraisive.
You Snap The Whip: I can't say anything about it besides it smells nice since it is for oily skin.
