Smell Great & Go Green with Godiva Solid Shampoo Bar from Lush

Heyyy Girls!!!
I just love Lush! They continue to surprise and thrill me with every new product I try. After my recent bout of travelling, I realised the importance of carrying toiletries and cosmetics which are travel friendly.After all nobody wants smashed bottles and broken lids!



Lush claims:
"Give your hair the moisturising boost it needs with softening, conditioning butters. Your hair will be left so beautiful no one would notice you were riding the streets naked. It's a two-in-one shampoo and conditioner that's now completely vegan. Cocoa and Shea butters combined to create a rich, thick feel to the lather. They also moisturise the hair follicles and condition to make hair soft. Smoothing, shine inducing Camellia oil makes hair manageable."


Godiva is a yellow colored shampoo bar that can easily fit in your palm. You can see a few stray flower petals and chunky bits of conditioner in it.Although Lush claims that Godiva is a "2 in 1 shampoo", I would like to tell you otherwise. When I was training to be a hair stylist, our instructor had informed us about this gimmicky term the manufacturing companies come up with just too push their sales. Shampoo is meant to cleanse your hair and scalp and like soap opens the pores on your skin, shampoo opens your hair follicles. Conditioner meanwhile is meant to de-tangle and nourish your hair. It also seals the hair follicle. I purchased Godiva for the fragrance it has! It has the most divine, intoxicating jasmine fragrance I've ever smelt! If you are sensitive to perfumes and fragrances, then this might not be for you. But if you still have your heart set on a shampoo bar,there are plenty of mild fragrance shampoo bars also available at Lush.



Priced at INR 680 for one bar, Godiva needs to be stored in a dry cool place due to the two different butter's present in it. You can buy the shampoo tins Lush sells to keep your bar safe. I personally cut the bar into two halves and use one at a time because after a couple of washes, the bar tends to get soft and mushy. And at this price, you don't want any wastage.The efforts you need to take to care for your solid shampoo might be putting off for a few but the results Godiva gives and that heavenly smell, just makes up for it! Godiva lathers really well and the smell lingers in the shower all day long. However sadly, it's gone from my hair by the noon. My hair is always the softest and most manageable when I use Lush products and this was no different. Godiva along with being travel friendly is also eco-friendly since it comes without any plastic containers. How cool is that! Lush is helping us take being eco-friendly to a whole new level! 


So what are you waiting for? Go grab a shampoo bar and do tell us how you liked it!
