Lush Princess Cottongrass Body Spray

With over 200 new products in the Lush catalogue there is so many to want, need and lust after right now. One product I wasn't expecting to like but actually love is the Princess Cottongrass Body Spray**.

Described by Lush as being "A secretive scent inspired by the Swedish tale of a lost princess who waits by a lake in the forest, hoping to reclaim the golden heart necklace she lost to the depths. Walk along the lakeside where you may see the slender cottongrass plants watching over the water and you will know she is still waiting. A delicate alien floral, both sweet and distant as it blossoms on your skin" the description is pretty spot on as it goes.

Princess Cottongrass Body Spray is quite a feminine fragrance. Really light when you first spray for it to them become much stronger and I suspect it is going to be something you either love or hate. I love it and use it for spraying in my bedroom around half an hour before going to bed, especially if I am struggling to sleep as I find it quite a relaxing scent.

Those of you who are Lush fans will know that each product is packed with amazing ingredients and within Princess Cottongrass we have - Pine Oil which is said to bring about a calming effect on the mind with Neroli Oil being one of the few essential oils to be scientifically proven to increase serotonin production in the brain, which makes us feel contented and cheerful, as well as working effectively as a toner for the skin. Violet Leaf Absolute helps to improve the condition of the skin, and to add a wonderful fresh fragrance with Nettle Absolute not only being full of Vitamins A and C but on oily skin as an astringent, to balance dry skin conditions, and to help scalp and hair problems. It has also been used to treat burns, to relieve joint pain and for insect bites.

So there are a lot of strong scents to be had within this body spray and yet it is not at all heavy. What you get instead is a wonderful fresh, crisp scent that lingers on your skin for a very long time, all day in fact and if you are looking for something that is a little bit different but has lastability, this is worthy of a look.
