Honey Beehave

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

Used to use candy fluff exclusively - until - well - it's gone. I am grateful, for I would have never tried honey bee have!!!!!!
This stuff smells so amazing, and I think it is the softest of all the dusting powders I have tried. Very moist feeling, yet dry.
Love love love it!!!!

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

I ordered this thinking that it would smell similar to HIWTK it does NOT at all. It stinks, it is not a smooth powder there is pieces of well, im not sure what it is but you have to break it up in your hand before you apply, just not one of my favorites all the way around.

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

So many people have commented on the texture, but that did not bother me. I did find the smell very disagreeable....there is like a moldy after-smell under the honey-ness...sort of like licorice, but rather more like moldyness....maybe I got a bad batch or maybe it just is not for me. I have found a use for it though....I use it on my dog to ward off the stinkies between baths... It works very very well for this and gives her coat a nice luster as well (not joking) and I don't mind the smell so much when its not ON me.....I have LOVED every other lush fragrance though, so I am guessing its a fluke of some kind..I would buy other dusting powders again...silky underwear was awesome!!!!

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

I do adore this scent, it is sweet and calming. I had a small issue with clumping in the tin, but I live in a humid area so that may explain it. I wish is came with a powder puff or something to make application easier

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

this product is a tad expensive but it smells great. It smells like honey and jasmine but it does have a tiny bit of that powdery smell, but thats ok. This was givin to me as gift. But if i never smelled it and tried it i would of otherwise not of bought it.

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

This was not my favorite powder, the smell is NOT like HIWTK it smells like actual real honey which some people may like but this is mixed with some sort of odd undertones as well. It was clumpy like stated in other reviews. So I would not recommend this there are other LUSH products that smell better and have a better consistency to them. Just not one of my FAVS.

Who knew my grandma was on to something with her daily powder? This fantastic powder takes grandma's wisdom to a delicious and hip new level! I love to dust all over after I shower. It works great as a deodorant for me, though I do not have very strong odor when I sweat. The smell is a little strong at first, but it dissipates enough in the first hour to not be overpowering by the time I get to work. It smells lovely anyway, though! I use the Back for Breakfast shower gel (another amazingly yummy scent), which is citrus-y with a touch of honey. Honey Beehave complements the honey-citrus quite nicely. My partner loves the scent combination and how smooth and soft it makes my skin.

The powder does tend to have pellets, but it's really not a big deal to crush the pellets with my finger before applying. This minor drawback is not enough to deter me from using this delicious powder everyday!

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

This powder smells amazing! Its fragrance is very similar to Honey Lumps and Gentle Lentil, like a combination of those two scents.

I'm so pleased that it is available in the Retro line. I'll keep buying it.

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

Like Honey Waffle, this smells like sour urine. It is really unpleasant. Not sure if this was old being a retro product but I am glad they stopped making it. Huge dissapointment.

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

Body powder is one of my favorite things, but I found most powders too, well, powdery. Most of them have that background smell of baby powder and Grandma-esque musk that I want to ditch. Honey Beehave was the answer to those prayers!
It has a wonderful smell that lasts a long time; I don't find it overpowering at all as it's a light fragrance to begin with. It's sweet without smelling like food, a huge plus for me, and unique. I get compliments on it when I use it. Like another reviewer mentioned, it does make an excellent deodorant! The silky texture it leaves on your skin also lasts a long time.

The big ol' con, as everyone else has mentioned, is the texture. It is grainy and has clumps in it, most likely from the honey in the ingredients. It makes it very messy to try to apply straight from the container, especially since the container is a shaker and not a powder box, as you have to crumble up the lumps. The clumps will roll off your skin and all over your bathroom floor.
If you dump it into your hand first and work out the lumps, it's fine but still a little gritty. It's like it needs a good run over with a mortar and pestle.

For me, it's worth it for the end texture on my skin and the fragrance, but it's definitely not for someone that just wants to slap it on and go.

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

this smells just like brazened honey face mask...a weird scent at first but it does grow on you...texture like karma dusting powder...grainy but doable and works well over aromacreme as a deodorant

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

I read other less than favorable reviews on this product but hoped that they were exaggerating a bit. I love Honey I Washed the Kids and Honey Bee, so I was thrilled to see a body powder with the same scent. Unfortunately, when I tried the product, I found it to live up to its bad reviews. The scent was so overpowering I almost choked in my smallish bathroom. The consistency was every bit as gritty as I'd read, and it left my hands feeling sort of sticky-ish. I ended up throwing out this product after only 4 uses. I love LUSH, but this product was the pits. :(

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

I *hated* this product when I first put it on. I would agree that it smells like rancid honey. But after a few minutes it mixes with your own oils and ends up toning itself waaay down. I still haven't had the right ratio of powder to body yet. Because I can't decide if after it gets toned down, if it even smells at all. I'm going to keep up with it thought because I appreciate a good body powder. Not as silky as any of the others, but maybe more effective for those really humid or rainy/soggy days? That's not exactly why I bought it, I more like to envelope myself in a scent before bed to create a 'routine' that puts me to sleep...Bottom line is, honey isn't my thing, but if it's yours; get over the initial rancid smell and see how it smells on your skin. It's probably one of those lush products that is a person by person basis of compatibility.

I bought this and have now been using for two weeks. It's not bad...but it's also not the best. There's really no other way to put it. I mean on average...it will do. Would I say that this is one item that is a must LUSH buy...nope!

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

Was a little disappointed with this one... I was expecting something that smelled akin to Honey I Washed the Kids (my favorite), but instead it smells just like the Brazened Honey mask. That's not necessarily a bad thing. I rather like the smell of the mask...but I like HIWtK more :(. It's also a bit gritty and reminded me a bit of Powdry.

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

I was pretty disappointed with this one, mostly because it doesn't smell as much like honey as I was hoping. It mostly smells like fizzy soda of some kind... no joke. Almost smells like how those candy bottle-caps taste. If I concentrate I can catch a whiff of honey, but I mostly just can't get over the soda smell.

I do agree with other reviews that it's pretty grainy, but if it smelled more like how some of Lush's other honey products smell, I would totally forgive that.

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

I absolutely ADORE the scent of this powder; soft, honey-sweet, very feminine, very much like the Butterball bath bomb. This would be my staple dusting powder if not for one thing: the consistency of the powder itself is not very nice. It's grainy and kind of rough and scratchy; made from baking soda??? Why, Lush? Why?? If this powder was softer, made with talc or even corn starch I would buy a whole case of it. Lush, what do you have against talc? Other than T for Toes powder - which is meant for feet so I can see the logic in using baking soda - this is the only dusting powder made from baking soda, and it's just not soft enough for a body powder.

I love the softer consistency of Silky Underwear and Candy Fluff, and wish this powder was made from the same base. Love the scent, hate the consistency.

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

I love, love, *LOVE* the scent of this product! It smells sweet like honey, but the geranium in it adds a whole extra dimension to the scent. It's unbelievably fabulous! I love using it now, because after I put it on, it leaves the bathroom with a nice scent of Honey Beehave. :)
The only reason I took one star off is purely because of the texture - as other reviewers have mentioned, it is a bit... grainy. That can make it a little more difficult to apply without dropping it all and wasting it. But on the other side of that, not so much of it just becomes dust in the air either. So I guess it's a matter of give and take. But it's at least nice to know what to expect.
Either way, I definitely prefer this to the Karma dusting powder - the only other Lush dusting powder I've tried. So I'm a happy, happy Lushie!

I think it smells just like BUTTERBALL!!!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE

Comments about LUSH Honey Beehave:

When I first wore this, my husband said, "You smell like honey." So, I guess it works! Took two points off because of the grainy texture. Not as easy to smooth on as Silky Underwear.
