Has a Vanilla Scent

Pleasant Scent

Has a Sweet Scent

Has a Coconut Scent

Not Heavy

Not Sticky

Hydrating

The texture when applying it on the hands or body is so nice
But the price is too high, and the sales tactics at the stores are too pushy, almost like a quota system

But I didn't know that this ingredient is included, and I don't use it
It's full of bad ingredients
It would be great if these ingredients were replaced with only good ones
Methyltriethanolamines, really?

The fragrance is really strong and nice
There is a moisturizing effect that can't be matched by the spreadability
The moisturizing effect causes the hands to sink in quickly, which is effective in the winter

The price seems evil compared to the volume... Can't they reduce the volume a bit and drastically lower the price?

It's moisturizing and has a delicious scent! Haha, it's good enough to give as a gift!

As expected, the ingredients... After checking the Hwahae app, I realized that this brand actually has quite a lot of poor ingredients. Methylparaben and propylparaben are just the beginning. So I don't plan to keep using it.

The fragrance is really nice. It's sometimes a bit rich, but it's just like banana cream... The moisturizing is average.

The fragrance is both a pro and a con - it smells good, but can be overpowering at times, to the point of being irritating to the nose. So I'd recommend checking it out in the store first if you prefer a more subtle, everyday scent!
The absorption is not bad, but there is a slight stickiness.
Also, it contains parabens, unfortunately.

The banana+vanilla fragrance leaves a sweet scent all over your body when applied as a body cream! The cream from Lush has decent spreadability and did not cause any skin troubles for me.

I recommend trying it out in-store first.

This scent may be divisive, and the banana-vanilla combination could potentially come across as cloying for some.

This body cream feels more moisturizing than other Lush body creams. I bought it without trying it first, just based on reviews, and when I first smelled it, I thought 'Wow, what a unique scent!' But as I got used to the sweet, creamy fragrance, I started to really enjoy it. It has a rich, delectable sweetness to it.

 I used to be a huge Lush enthusiast and only used their products, but one day I started to feel like they were slathering preservatives all over my skin. The fragrances in their body lotions and soaps were so strong, it felt like I was wearing perfume. It was just too much. And since I already have dry skin, the Lush body lotion I was using made my skin unbearably itchy, especially at night. I started to seriously consider throwing it out. After that experience, I stopped using Lush soaps and products altogether. Now I'm using a gentler body lotion that keeps my skin hydrated without irritation. It made me realize that Lush products are definitely not as mild as they claim to be. I'm done with Lush now.

It's so expensive... I got it as a gift but I'm not sure if I'd buy it with my own money again. And the Lush packaging is a bit ㅠㅠ I have a hard time closing the lid every time haha
And the ingredients aren't that great.. Lush disappoints me

The fragrance is so delicious haha I really get hungry when I apply it
And the moisturization is great! I have very dry skin so I apply it at night and when I wake up in the morning, it's not dry, but regular creams tend to get dry quickly so this is pretty impressive
It's also great as a hand cream! 
It's not too oily when applied on the hands~
It lasts me about 2 weeks when I apply it all over my body and the amount doesn't decrease too much
I think it would last me around one and a half to two months if I apply it all over my body

I absolutely never buy Lush products in Korea. I know they are almost twice as expensive when purchased in Japan. If you don't like bananas, you may not like this.

The pleasant banana fragrance is nice, and it is moisturizing for dry skin, especially on the calves where flaky skin tends to occur in the winter. The fragrance also has good lasting power.

If you use the new banana shampoo/hair care line from The Body Shop, it'll really amp up the banana scent ♡

It is a bit pricey. And looking at the ingredients, there are some parabens in it. If you're sensitive to those, you might want to check out the Karma cream from Lush that was recommended to me - it has a slightly thicker texture.

The scent was pleasant and I really appreciate fragrances. However, it might be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing. It's a banana cream scent, but it's not overly sweet. You'll have to smell it for yourself.
As for the functionality, it's great for combination/maturing skin that tends to get a bit dry these days. In this weather, it really helps prevent that tight, chalky feeling without leaving a greasy residue.
Those with drier skin may find it a bit lacking, but it should work well for most.

At first, it felt gentle and refreshing, so I repurchased it. But at some point, I started breaking out in small bumps. It's also itchy.. I'm planning to visit a dermatologist tomorrow.

It doesn't feel sticky or stuffy even after repeated application.

Black banana seeds get stuck under my nails.
Fortunately, the ones attached to my body have dried up and seem to be disappearing.

It has good spreadability and absorption.
It also has the right amount of oil content, so it's wonderful to apply on dry areas.
The scent is slightly bitter yet sweet? It has a very subtle fragrance that's not overbearing.
