    I just got this last night, and used it tonight. I had seen some reviews for it, and a few people did not like it. I still wanted to try it just to see what I thought, because when I smelled it at...

    This is my favorite soap from LUSH. I love the smell! I first tried this as a hand soap and found it was way too exfoliating, but it works great as a body soap and often takes place of my Buffy.

    Smells AWESOME - but OUCH. Once the top layer of soap wears off, you're left with scratchy bits of oatmeal that really scratch your skin. The bar foams up nicely, smells almost molasses like, but...

    I really wanted to like this soap but it just did not agree with my skin. For one it is oddly drying on my skin but oatmeal is supposed to be soothing. I guess it is the citrus oils or something....

    I love this soap. It has a side that can be used to exfoliate, and a smother side that’s more like typical soap. The reason why I love this soap is because of the smell and lather. It smells...

    Sigh....AMAZING. It smells... so edible. I wish my skin would retain the scent. Better yet, I wish LUSH would make a solid perfume with this scent. My mouth literally waters when I smell...

    The texture on this was lovely and the smell amazing. I can't believe I let my slice of soap sit so long before trying it out. It's a very fresh, citrus scent with a sweet undertone of maple syrup.

    This soap is not meant to be used as regular soap. It makes for a great scrub type bar (same with I Should Cocoa). The scent is unusual but nice. The actual soap part is super super creamy.

    I love this soap. Nobody seems to know what the 'seeds' in this soap are. It says in the ingredients that they're spearhead oats - so basically oats that haven't been hulled or rolled. I love that...

    I am not a fan of this soap. At first it smells neat but once you start using it, the attraction is gone. It still smells alright but I hate the fact that it has so many dang NUTS in it. Or...

    Porridge Soap certainly smells good, like an amped-up Honey I Washed The Kids. I also have an issue with the seeds and believe that the soap would have been better without them, or with less of...

    Smells pretty nice, not my favorite but good, and leaves me feeling squeaky clean. The seeds feel nice and scrubby against my skin - not too abrasive. I didn't find that this soap made such a mess...

    I love the smell of Porridge. The oats do get everywhere & there's not much actual soap between the oats so it's a bit of a waste. Even worse, they mention on the Lush website that it's great for...
