Banana Moon

This rich, moisturizing soap is for everyone who loves bananas; bananas on toast, banana splits, banana ice cream, you get the picture. Just stay away if bananas aren't your thing because banana moon is a creamy soap made with real fresh bananas and yogurt. Bananas are full of vitamins and minerals and make your skin very soft. Use Gumbo Express Shower Smoothie and Sympathy for the Skin for the whole top banana effect.

I kind of like the smell but I wasn't totally sure, I don't know what people are talking about the plastic scent, it smelled definitely of bananas but a little different. I called it a funky scent, I guess you got to really like bananas or else you probably won't like this soap! My skin felt dry in the shower after I used it but felt fine after. The scent definitely lingers throughout the day if that is what you're looking for, I smelled like this soap for hours later, and it kind of smelled better throughout the day rather than the immediate smell of the soap alone. Try it if you like banana smell! (:

I used this soap for the first time and loved it! I was skeptical of the banana smell but when I used it actually was not too overwhelming which was great! It felt natural and made my skin feel soft and moisturized, would buy it again!

Comments about LUSH Banana Moon:

It was my very first purchase from Lush and I have to say I LOVED it! The smell is truely addictive and I have to refrain myself from taking showers all the time.
I wish it stayed even longer on my skin but I'm sure I'd look stupid smelling my hands all the time!

I'll buy it again for sure!

    Comments about LUSH Banana Moon:

    When I first got this, I was disappointed with the smell, until I actually used it. When it's dry, it smells a little like rotten bananas, but when it's wet, it smells amazing! Great soap, I felt completely relaxed and clean. I used it all over my body, and it hasnt gotten any smaller, so i think it'll last a while!

          Comments about LUSH Banana Moon:

          I love anything banana-scented. I had both Gumback Express and Sympathy for the Skin and loved them both, but Banana Moon had only the faintest of faint banana smell to it. Mostly it smellt of anise, which I hate. I made it halfway through a shower with it and tossed it. I have a very sensitive nose, so maybe it's just me who detected a subtle fragrance that I hated. Or maybe just a bad batch.

          This soap smells like you could eat it! It's definitely bananas for banana. I use body butters in the shower because I find that all soap period dries out my skin too much...but this one doesn't dry out my hands as much as others did.

          Comments about LUSH Banana Moon:

          I received this soap as a sample with another product and fell in love. I ordered a bar a week later and couldn't wait to jump in the shower with it! It smells delicious, but my skin felt very dry and tight when I got out of the shower. After 4 uses, it was almost gone. I also wished the scent stayed on my body longer, but it was almost gone as soon as I was done towel drying off. As much as I love the smell, I wouldn't buy this again, as it is not worth the money since it doesn't last very long.

            Comments about LUSH Banana Moon:

            I got this as a sample soap. If I use my imagination, I can smell banana mixed with jasmine tea. The scent was strong enough in the shower to give me a mini-headache. The scent does linger on your skin long after the bath is over and smells sort of like a fruity jasmine tea. I'd not buy this soap on purpose. It's just not a very "me" scent. To each their own.

                I love this soap! I only use Lush products and have tried almost all of the soaps and this one is by far the creamiest and most moisturizing. I have eczema and my skin dries out very easily but not with Banana Moon. And any complaints about it not lathering truly dont matter! Think about it......if a pile of mashed bananas started foaming youd think something was wrong yes? The small amount of soap makes some bubbles but the bananas make it so creamy and delicious! This soap is real food for your skin.

                I actually got this product as a sample in my order. It smells exactly like ripe bananas. I mean EXACTLY. So if you are looking for that soapy smell, dont get it. I ended up hanging it on my razor rack to dry, because the second I set it down a puddle of soap formed. I wish the smell lasted after you used it though. It has little black things in it, so its almost exfoilating. It is a very nice soap if your gaga for bananas.

                        I was SO disappointed when they stopped selling this soap in the LUSH stores! It was the one soap I would buy in bulk - seriously!

                        While I can't say it smells "just like banana," it does smell fabulous! I used to use it in the morning, and while working (at a desk), if I turned my head down to write, or whatever, I could smell the soap on my chest/neck. It was the first soap I've ever purchased that I could smell for much of the day.

                        I think it's also a "hint" that the soap is good that it is often out of stock on the Retro page. This is the first time I've ever been able to BUY some! Maybe one day, they'll sell it in the stores again!!! (hint, hint!)

                        I bought this soap for my daughter, and she seems to like it alot. However, if you do not like strong scents - do not buy this soap. It really packs a punch!! It smells like a ton of fresh bananas concentrated into a small soap. VERY concentrated.

                        Apart from the super strong smell, its very creamy and moisturizing, and the scent doesnt seem to be strong on the skin (just on the bar). I would recommend this for kids, banana lovers, or if you're in need of some flexibility and moisturization in your skin!

                        If you're a fan of any scent bananas, then this is for you! It's the first product I've tried from LUSH and I love it! It doesn't exactly smell like authentic bananas, but more like banana with an extra spice. The scent does not last long after the shower, but I really loved the way it worked in the shower. The exfoliating feel from the parts in the soap felt great!

                              I got this as a sample with my first ever Lush haul, and I loved the smell! Even throughout the day I smelled it on my skin, and in my bathroom.

                              I was interested to try this as a sample. The smell is underwhelming. I wouldn't order it as there's nothing very special about it for me. I like bananas but I'm not bananas about them! ;p
