Love Lula: Soaps for Hair & Body


I've been testing two soaps* from Love Lula, a shampoo bar and a body and face soap. I love beautiful soaps and these two are fast becoming favourites.

Trevarno is a brand I'm aware of but I've not really tried many of their products before. They are (like Spiezia) based in Cornwall and products are certified organic and made with pure natural ingredients.

Their soaps are gorgeous and I'm kind of lusting after this handmade soap selection! I've been trying their Rose & Jojoba soap* (£4) which is a lush blend of rose petals, geranium and palmarosa essential oil, jojoba and olive oils along with ground rosehip (this makes the soap slightly scrubby). I've been really impressed with how lovely this soap is and I'll definitely buy it again.

To use: massage over wet skin in the bath or shower before rinsing or use as a hand soap.

A totally new to me brand is GK Natural Creations, a unique range which is handmade in small batches. The products are luxurious, affordable and free from chemicals and synthetics. Packaging is recyclable as well as pretty and the products are made using sustainable vegetable oils, butters, essential oils, natural herbs, botanicals and clays.


Silky Avocado Shampoo Bar with Rhasoul Clay, Silk and Nourishing Avocado Oil* (£4.50) is just lovely! I used to be a fan of Lush's ones but much prefer this one with no SLS!

The bar is stuffed full of good things for the hair and scalp including Rhasoul Clay which cleanses and balances, Avocado oil which nourishes and Silk which gives the bar a luxurious feel. Rosemary, Lavender and Grapefruit essential oils restore, balance and refresh. 

Suitable for all hair types but specifically normal or oily fine hair. It's also great for travel.

To use: wet hair and either lather up in your palm or rub the bar over your hair before massaging it into a lather. Rinse.

What's your favourite soaps for the hair and body?

Love Lula: Beauty Balm's Beauty Box

Love Lula stock so many brands I haven't tried yet that I decided to pick some new to me brands this month. I decided to create a beauty box which I'd love to receive (it's a lot harder than it looks to select a good mix and stay within budget!) There is one brand I've included which I've tried before - cult brand Dr Hauschka (but not the sample I picked). I can't wait to try everything so expect reviews soon!

Without further ado here's my picks (which works out at £50.05):




I've been wanting to try one of Ere Perez's Lipsticks for ages! I chose shade Surprise (4.5g - £17)* to put in my box. It's a really lush hot pink matte which I can't wait to try.

Next up is NEW IN: Rio Rosa Mosqueta Rosehip Discovery Set (£9.95)* which includes 3 trial sizes - Cream Cleanser (20ml), Rosehip Seed Oil (5ml) and Anti-ageing Day & Night Cream (20ml). The range is 100% natural and organic and made with pure Chilean Rosehip Seed Oil.

Alchemy Oils have been on my radar for a while but I've just not got round to trying them. The new travel size (30ml - £8) is the perfect try-me size or great for holidays. I selected their Grapefruit Hair Remedy* which deeply conditions and treats the hair. It can also be used for styling and flyaways - I love a multi-use product.

Staying on hair GK Natural Creations Silky Avocado Shampoo Bar with Rhasoul Clay & Silk (95g - £4.50)* jumped out at me (I also like the look of the rest of the range). I'm always looking for the perfect shampoo and this bar is suitable for normal, oily and fine hair.

I'm a huge bar of soap fan - so one had to sneak its way in! Trevarno is a brand which I've meant to try but just haven't yet. Their Organic Rose & Jojoba Soap (£4)* I chose can be used on both the face and body and smells divine.

My final full size pick is Bia Beauty Skincare Lime Pie Lip Balm (7ml - £3.60)* which smells limey and zesty. It's presented in a cute little tin which is perfect to pop in a pocket or handbag. It deeply nourishes the lips and I love it!

A trial size* from Dr Hauschka rounds up my box - Moor Lavender Calming Bath Essence (10ml - £3)* which calms and soothes both the body and mind.

What do you think of my choices this month? Are there any items there you'd like to try?
