LUSH’s Creamed Almond & Coconut Shower Smoothie wash not only smells amazing but is incredibly soothing to the skin. Here are some interesting facts about why the Creamed Almond & Coconut Shower Smoothieis great for your skin. Oh, and did I mention this is a vegan product?? Have you ever tried LUSH’s Creamed Almond and Coconut Shower Smoothie or any of their other products? Let us know how you feel about LUSH.

About the Ingredients:

Vanilla pods are made up of sugars, vanillin, fats and mineral salts. When applied topically, the sugars in vanilla act as a humectant. The humectant action also forms a barrier on skin, which prevents moisture loss. Vanilla extract adds the beautiful vanilla scent to the product.
Creamed Almond and Coconut Shower Smoothie is for days when your skin is in need of care and attention. We like it best for the shower, but if you haven’t got one, you can stand up in the bath to smooth the fluffy, moisturizing and creamy soap all over you.
This Smoothie will scent your skin with jasmine, ylang and vanilla, and the moisturizing coconut and almond oils make your body silky soft.
Almond oil is unscented and excellent for the skin. It is emollient, demulcent and nutritious with a high vitamin E content. It is smooth to apply and leaves a silky feel to the skin

Some of Lush’s Green Feelings:

We take our commitment to this seriously. Since LUSH began, our founders have been conscious of how our products interact with the environment. We have always used creative and innovative solutions to make a positive impact on the planet. Our invention of the first-ever solid shampoo bar is testament to this practice.

The medium-chain saturated fats in Coconut Oil are an important part of a healthy, balanced diet and daily skin care. Sunfood Nutrition’s Coconut Oil is made from certified organic coconuts grown in the Philippines. Coconut Oil/Butter consists over 90% raw saturated fats. They are a rare and important building block of every cell in the human body. Unlike long-chain saturated animal fats ,which have been attributed to creating poor health, Coconut Oil contains healthy, healing, medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). MCTs support the immune system, the thyroid gland, nervous system, skin, and provide energy. The MCTs in Coconut Oil help increase metabolism promoting weight loss. MCTs are also known to have antiviral, antimicrobial, and anti-fungal properties. For this reason, Coconut Oil/Butter is one of the best dietary fat sources for an individual to ingest.
