    One of my favourites! PROS: (1) alleviates my dry legs (2) smells amazing! Like almonds, vanilla, and banana custard without being all sugary [if that makes sense!] (3) works for my sensitive...

    Mmmm, smells like a vanilla custard slice! Often with other supposedly 'natural' body lotions *cough* Body Shop Body Butter *cough* - I get a slight whiff of something artificial. Not so with...

    I'm never going back to my regular lotions. I feel like I've wrapped myself in a vanilla custard feathery duvet. I refuse to put on perfume the mornings I put this on, and can't stop sniffing my...

    After reading all the other reviews on this product I think I must have bought a dud batch! I thought this was disgusting. When I opened it, I found that after a few months of non-use (although...

    Very nice lotion. I feel that the price doesn't quite live up to what it delivers, but it is very moisturizing and gives you great-feeling skin.

    I didn't get the banana-y smell or custard smell like others have said. I figured this would be similar to a body butter consistency but its not, infact I thought it was too runny to be a lotion....

    I love this lotion. It is very light feeling, light fruity banana milkshake scent, and very non obtrusive when I want to wear perfume over it. It makes my skin feel absolutely lovely. Oh but I...

    Deciding it was time to take better care of my skin, Lush has worked well for my cuticles, elbows and knees. I don't detect any strong fragrance when using it. I've made three purchases and will...

    It smells absolutely gorgeous - softly and yummy!!! It is quite light, so is great for summer, it is not greasy at all. Moisturizes well too!

    I adore this stuff! The smell is great and you only need a tiny little bit. It leaves my skin sooo soft and silky, not greasy at all.

    I love this product, both the smell and the effects (especially in the winter months). Softens wonderfully, without grease. I normally hate vanilla-scented things, but this is subtle and really...

    I didn't get any "vanilla custard" scent out of this (but then again, LUSH stuff rarely actually smells like its package description.) However, it is a pretty decent moisturizer; my skin stayed...

    Hmmm, the smell of this lotion was interesting. It was slightly banana-y but it also smelt like some sort of arts & crafts paste. As a moisturiser, it did it's job decently although applying it...

    This one was a bit too creepy in the end. I like gourmand stuff as much as the next person, but in a banana lotion, I don't want to actually see little black banana threads! This ended sitting on...

    I go in & out of LUSH Moods, This smells great and feels good when I'm "Lush'in", but it is not the END ALL of lotions for me.
