Sultana of Soap

Bow down to the creamy sultana of soaps.

3.5 oz
$5.95
Qty:

This product does not contain animal

Dried apricots

Apricots are rich in beta-carotene, a powerful antioxidant, and many other minerals. The dried fruits contain even more beta-carotene (10.9IU) than the fresh fruit (2.6IU) per 100 grams. They also have an even higher concentration of potassium than the fresh fruit


The royalty of soaps.

The creamy fruity one. The Sultana of Soap looks like a big cake of nougat from Brighton Pier. It's soft and creamy, filled full of chopped apricots and currants and scented with spicy olibanum; it's hardly surprising that it looks tempting enough to take a lick

Smells like nougat and fresh fruit.

Smooth a slice of our fruit encrusted, creamy dessert of a soap all over your body and enjoy smelling like a sweet shop.

Bergamot

Bergamot can be very refreshing and has relaxing properties. It has a light, fruity and floral fragrance. Its fresh and light fragrance makes it a natural anti-depressant. It is thought to clear the mind of anxious thoughts and help to give mental clarity.

I can't think of anything bad about this soap...maybe it doesn't last long...but it's soap...and knowing that I use it several times a day, I wouldn't expect it to last forever. I bought a giant block of it in LA...still have some left after a month. It smells amazing...not overly perfum-y, perfectly clean and fresh smelling. I only wish lush would make one of every product that smelled like this one. :)

It's creamy and smells nice, but isn't anything exceptional, imo. It's not THE best smelling soap that Lush has, it doesn't last very long/, the scent doesn't stay on your skin after you use it, and I'm not crazy about the pieces of fruit falling off into the shower (although it makes the soap look really pretty).

But there IS something really decadant about this soap that makes me want to try it again... perhaps in a tub and not my shower. I love invigorating smells, like citrus, so the creamy and subtle scent of Sultana wasn't that morning shower energizer that I need... this would be a good soap for a late night bath, I think.

    Comments about LUSH Sultana of Soap:

    I stock up on this soap, and don't use it as soon as I get it (the reason I stock up). The longer the bar sits the longer it lasts. I don't unwrap the soap as I've heard others do, but I've stored bars for months before using. It helps.

    The smell is amazing. This is truly my favorite soap. The bits of fruits I could live without, and I've been lucky a few times where my soap has arrived sans bits.

    The soap lathers beautifully, but I find it to be a tad drying. It still doesn't stop me from using it all year round. Lush's body moisturizers certainly take care of the dryness. I suggest the Coco lotion as the scent is mild and doesn't take from the scent of the soap.

      I have been using this soap for two years now and I have very sensitive skin and am allergic to everything. This soap calms my skin and moisturizes at the same time. I drive over an hour away just to get my soap when needed. It is smooth and clean smelling and exfoliating as well. I recommend this soap to everyone.

        Comments about LUSH Sultana of Soap:

        I haven't tried many of the soaps or bath items at LUSH because of the use of dyes. I am actually allergic to a particular type of red dye... so I can't risk to use quite a bit of LUSH's bath items. :( It makes me very sad because everything looks so fun and inviting.

        Sultana though... not only is it one of the most affordable, but I'm not scared of the ingredients! I finally got myself a sample and it is absolutely the best thing that has ever happened to my skin! It's super moisturizing, lathers great, and the lovely smell stays with your throughout the day. This soap alone has also helped solve my dry skin issues with the winter weather- I definitely will be back for more!

        LUSH- as creative as many of your products look, please consider making more bath items without the use of colored dyes for people like me!

                  I have nothing but kind words for this soap. It's a wonderful creamy, soft, gentle bar of soap that smells beyond heavenly. Just catching a whiff of this scent in my bathroom makes me want to hop in the shower and lather it all over for days! Seriously, it's incredible. It leaves my skin feeling soft as feathers and faintly smelling of the product itself in a subtle way. Beyond perfect, I promise!

                    My first Lush product, this delicious treat of a soap with its creamy, decadent lather (builds to epic proportions with a loofah) was the hook that had me coming back to see what other goodies Lush might have in store for me. Glad it did!

                    Not entirely sure if the dried fruit enhances anything. Are they supposed to exfoliate? They don't detract so I'll give it 5 *s anyway.

                    "Sultana" was my soap of choice for gift-giving. I had recently purchased a small chunk to give to a friend, and selfishly decided to keep it for myself. Best. Decision. Ever.
                    The scent is amazing and my skin feels and smells incredible after showering with it. When unpleasant smells linger on my hands from cooking in the kitchen, this stuff eradicates it.
                    It does seem to vanish quickly, but so do a lot of good things in life. If it gets too crumbly, you can squish the remains in your hands tightly and it goes right back together.
                    New favorite soap. I plan to be selfish with "Sultana" a lot more often.

                    I have dry skin, and this is so creamy and moisturizing. It also has some of the fewest ingredients of LUSH's soaps, which almost always means it's better for you and the environment. The ONLY thing that I don't like about it is the handful of dried fruit I'm left with when the soap runs out. I'm going to try out Alkmaar for that reason, but I have a feeling Sultana will be worth it!

                    I bought Sultana of soap at the Lush New Orleans store. I was kind of on the fence between this and Alkmaar. I actually liked the smell of Alkmaar better but BF liked this one so I got it. It smells AMAZING! My only wish is that it lasted longer. I went through a bar in about 2-3 weeks :( Also the scent doesnt really linger very long. I will probably buy Alkmaar this time just to try something different, but I really do love the smell and texture of Sultana of Soap!

                      Comments about LUSH Sultana of Soap:

                      I went into Lush looking for some new soaps, and after I mentioned to an employee that I really loved the Porridge soap, she recommended that I try Sultana. I took a whiff and fell in love with the scent in the store, so I decided to buy a chunk. The scent stayed as lovable as it did in the store when I brought it home and started using it. The lather that this soap produces is GREAT. It's so creamy and moisturizing, so it makes a nice little white foam whenever you lather with it that goes a long way. One of the unfortunate aspects of this soap is that, despite its great lather, it doesn't last very long. I don't know if it's the heat of the shower (this is where I usually use my Lush soaps), but it doesn't hold up well for very long and melts really easily. It may last longer if you use this as a hand soap rather than in the shower or bath like I did.

                      Another thing to take into account is that this soap can get a little messy. When I tossed this in the shower, my boyfriend came out with a suspicious glance and commented, "There's a soap with rocks in it in our shower!" When I told him they were just dried fruits, he was more willing to use it (which he has!), but those little dried pieces do break off while you're using it and find their way down the drain. Sometimes I had to pick pieces out of the shower when I was done to make sure they didn't clog up the pipes! Despite its downfalls, I really do like this soap-- it was great while it lasted! But I think I may be sticking with primarily Porridge for my creamy soaps.

                        This is probably my favorite soap EVER. It smells sooo delicious! It is so creamy, and moisturizing in the shower too! A little goes a very, very long way with this soap because it lathers so nicely! It also lasts on your skin, which I love.
                        I will repurchase! :)

                        Total Lushie and bought this because the reviews are so stellar and I was not disappointed! This soap smells delicious and goes great with The Olive Branch it's a light fruity yummy scent that I think almost everyone boy or girl can enjoy.

                        I love the way the soap comes a nice slice with the fruit topping and creamy bottom like HIWTK but with fruit. The lather is so soft and creamy not drying at all! The smell is light but lasts on the skin when my boyfriend used it because he ran out of his figs and leaves he smelled so good. Every time he walked past me I would catch a nice whiff!

                        It lasts pretty long too I recommend drying your soap then keeping it in a plastic bag. Because it will last way longer because it has a chance to become good and solid. Otherwise it gets soft and doesn't last as long. If you fully dry it you really get to enjoy this soap! This is such a great soap and the price is great so it really is worth it because you will smell de lovely and be super soft!

                          After using liquid soap for years, I was skeptical about returning to a bar soap. I took one whiff of this soap and had to buy it. The smell was so amazing! I am so glad I did. I have cranky, unpredictable skin, and this soap has been working wonders for my skin. It lathers so well I can still use my pouf! This will definitely be a staple in my bathroom!

                          I use this as a body soap and also wash my face with it in the morning! You will definitely need a moisturizer though, this will dry your face! Definitely an awesome body soap, makes your skin feel squeaky clean, no need to scrub with this soap, it does its job!!

                              I got this as a sample in one of my Lush shipments, and I wasn't too sure if I would like it at first because the large white chunks looked kind of gross to me (almost like barley!) but I figured why not try it? It smells sooooo yummy and it is very moisturizing. I loved how soft my skin felt when I used it. There wasn't much bubbly lather, but it works anyway! :)
