Lush is known for its scented innovations in beauty—from massage bars and bath bombs to creamy handmade soaps and pleasantly exfoliating scrubs. The brand's Figs and Leaves soap is definitely a great example of how Lush prioritizes ingredient combinations to bring about unique bathing and cleansing experiences to consumers.
The Figs and Leaves soap basts a "subtly sweet and fresh scent" that is bound to calm one's nerves. The fig seeds provide gentle exfoliation while the inclusion of Fair Trade Organic Aloe Vera gel delivers a cooling sensation. Formulated mostly with natural ingredients, this creamy handmade soap—which lathers up like a dream—also boasts Rapeseed Oil, Coconut Oil, Aloe Extract, and more.
This product, like most Lush products, is plastic-free. It is also vegan and cruelty-free.
