fantastic formulation – This soap is good. It makes my skin soft and smells good especially the pink one. It doesn't make my skin feel moisturized. If you are after getting a soap that's heavily available on supermarkets, this is a good choice. Show details
the violet one is what I use – I love the scent of this soap, it's not overpowering and it leaves my skin soft. I buy this in value packs as I realize it saves me some money.
Lux for Everyone ☺ – I've been using lux for 5 plus years and my opinion it's a good and cheap soap. It has a beautiful smell and i dont have any problems with it☺i gi e it thumps up.
Negative reviews
Used to be heaps better and more fragrent in it – it has been like 2 years since i used lux soap but just bought it again from big w and it does not smell at all. it is as cheap and not smelly as the aldi brand soap. no way. i am changing my soaps again. Show details
Less Soap for money – I like the soap but I do not like the way customers are getting less and paying more. I bought Lux Soap Soft Caress. The Soap is smaller than it used to be. To top it up there is a chunk of soap missing in providing some contour as an excuse for it. I could not recommend this product. Look around for better value for your money.
Smells good but leaves sticky feeling – I love Lux when I was in my teens but it has changed through the years. Now that I am a mum, I usually buy them but not for daily use. The petal touch and the soft and creamy scents are good but they leave a very sticky feeling after lathering. It seems to be full of muck and sticky ingredients. It maybe the moisturizers but I did not like it as… Read more
compared to what I smell and feel before, the skin feels silkier without all that sticky feeling before compared to the new formula.

I was always a Dove user but due to gradual price increases I decided to try Lux, on special at Coles, $4 for a 4 pk. While a good soap, though not as nice or creamy as Dove, I found that the bars are only 70grms compared to Dove at 90grms. I realised that I had become a victim of "shrinkflation". That's a difference of about 22%! I feel duped...wont be buying Lux again in a hurry! Show details
The one and only! – Ive always used lux as a kid experimented with others and still apart from the downsizing its the best! Palmolive also great as well all made offshore but good products went to a party and was commented by a woman on the aftershave! I said no just the soap!!!!! Lol Show details
can't resist the smell – this is the soap I use for the last 12 months & I never changed. This soap is mositurising, regardless of what variant. It is not expensive and can be bought anywhere.
Smells good, feels good and smooth on my skin – Some soaps dries up my skin. Like after taking a quick shower, I felt some skin tightening and drying. It was because of a cheap soap that never works then I figured I should change what I'm using. I saw this on the soap stand and bought it immediately after reading its "moisturizing" claims. Right after a few days of using it, I never felt the tightening and dryness especially on my elbow area. I guess this product is awesome.
I love Lux – Lux soap has always been great. I love the fragrances, it feels lovely on the skin, and is well priced. The multi-packs are great value. The only thing I think would be great is packs with mixed fragrances
I love it. ♥ – Fantastic quality product, incredible on my skin and they smell great too. I use them for myself, both my children and husband. My kids and I have really sensitive skin & eczema flare ups, since using the Purify soaps this has been decreased by a dramatic amount. Would recommend these to anyone seeking a more sensitive option.

Another Product Made In China – You have to be kidding me !. I'm recently back from many years living in the UK, used Lux here up to 1998, used Lux in the UK for 17 years, back to Australia in 2016 and now Lux is made in China. The only reason I found out was because I came out in a rash just after using it and checked the pack. One can only dream of what illegal chemicals the chinese may have added to poor old Lux.
Lux soap – It just dries out my skin, it's not good soap at all, if you wanna test that, alright, use it for few days, and after a month or so, you will see cracks developed in soap, I would say, if a soap itself can't be good how is going to keep our skin healthy??
bad soap and I'm changing brands – I am changing brands finally. Your soaps are getting smaller AND they shrink in size in three (3) days and wash away very quickly so I'm constantly buying new packs of 8. Not good. I want a soap that lasts more than a week and has powerful cleansing qualities. Bye Lux.
Crap at Best – Lux lavender soap bar caused the tattoo on my leg to raise up and cause eczema... It was raised and ugly and caused me to scratch to my wits end. The only thing that eased that pain was 100% pure coconut oil. I was not home and did not have access to my regular organic soap...Tsk tsk lux - this occurred on three consecutive mornings - with… Read more
extreme agitation to 3/4 of my leg. Never again, never!
So what's in your soap bars these days that cause such a reaction?
Bad – Its been a long time since Ive used this product. Actually its been a long time since I have used soap bars. These days, I mostly buy Lux Soap bars for my grandparents who still havent quite gotten out of the using soap bars era and are still happy experimenting with different fragrances. I like the vast variety in fragrances and that it is cost… Read more
effective. The bars are cheaper than shower gels. Lux Soap bars tend to dry out my skin, leaving it feeling tight right after a shower. It does not feel as comfortable as opposed to using a shower gel.
A great family soap for the entire family – This is a great soap which has been around for a long time and it smells great and is a great soap to rely on. The fragrances arent too strong and its easy to use this soap for everyday use anytime of the year. I like the fact that this soap doesnt melt in the water like another well known moisturising soap and it doesnt loose its shape. Overall… Read more
this is a great soap that I can depend on because its easily found in the shops and it really is pretty good value for money. This is a good soap which I find doesnt really dry out my skin and its smells great too. It is a soap so if you want a soap free product with more moisturising, then this isnt it.
Excellent – The Lux soaps are great value and would be good for a whole family. The scents are not too feminine or too masculine and are pleasant. The lathering qualities are good, and these soaps seem to last longer than some other brands. They are quite sturdy and don't dissolve too easily. Leaves your skin feeling soft and fresh. The Lux soaps are… Read more · 1
fantastic value for money. You can get them in larger packs than other soaps which is economical. Some stores such as Big W sell these in packs of 8 or 10. The scents are also rather nice. There is nothing I do not like about these soaps
Good – A good price on this product and it might work for people with less senstitive skin than myself, it just wasn't for me! The smell of this soap was beautiful when I tried it a couple of months ago, so whoever is in charge of the aromatherepy potion of the product is doing a good job. The price is decent and afforable and it's easy to find, it's… Read more
often on sale in my local Coles. My one issue with this soap is that I felt it really dried out the skin after a few days of using it. The smell is pretty but for long term use, I prefer a product which doesn't dry out my skin!
Good – overall i like the lux soaps, i do not use soaps too much as i prefer body washes and shower gels but if i use soap then this is one of the brands i buy, my husband uses soaps alot so he likes this one as it leaves his skin feeling soft and smooth the price of lux soap is great, especially when i special, i love the range of scents that are… Read more
available, they are devine, doesnt leave your skin feeling tight and dry like other soaps can, the packaging is cute which is important to me, there are no cons for the lux soaps

Good – I must admit I have a terrible hang up about using soaps this is until I tried Lux. It is gentle on the skin and it has a lovely soft smell to it also. It did lather up very easy and all I can say is my skin felt lovely and fresh after I used this soap and smelt gorgeous. I must admit I am a bt iff'y with all soaps but I wanted to try some so it… Read more
was this one or Imperial leather, I chose this one Lux as it smelt so nice. It is a soap and I have a terrible hang up about using soap's until I tried this one Lux.
Excellent – 'Lux Soap' is an economical buy, particularly for a larger household, where single or double soap pack purchases are simply impractical. It is an excellent grease-cutting soap which is not too harsh on the skin. The fragrances are lovely and make excellent drawer scenters until one is ready to use them. The packaging is attractive to the eye,… Read more
so it is readily sighted when hunting it out on the supermarket shelves. A round edged soap of a good size, which feels good to hold and lathers well. Lathers well. Lovely fragrances. Not too harsh on the skin. Good grease-cutter. Economical bulk pack buy. Nothing; this is a good shower, bath or basin soap.
Good – I love Lux Soap and no matter what other soaps i use for a change, i always come back to Lux Soap. There is no disappointments when using Lux and i feel it is one of the great brands on the market at the moment. It smell great, moisturies and cleans my skin leaving me feeling great for the rest of the day. The only thing i would change is the… Read more
price because it is only soap and i sometimes think that like everything,it is a little bit expensive Smells great, moisturises as it cleans my skin and leaves my skin looking great. Could be a little cheaper.
OK – good soap with nice fragrance, its cheap and does the job, personally i wouldnt recommend it for people with sensitive skins does the job, removed dirt and oil from the skin. Leaves skin feeling clean and soft. cheap, available in bulk packs and has a nice fragrance Dried out skin quite alot and left it feeling tight
OK – This soap has a fragrance but it is still a pleasant one. All of them are quite nice, but I prefer the pink one the best. Fresh and awakening. They are very affordable and great for people with normal skin. However as I have sensitive excma skin I prefer the non soap bath and shower gels like Cetaphil and QV (out of the drugstore brands). For it's… Read more
cost, this is a great soap, for people who use soaps. Smells nice, slightly moisturising, very affordable. Great product for it's price. However, not moisturising enough for very dry or sensitive skin.
Good – my personal favourite i sthe pink one and i think it has the best fragrance.The ones which came with almond essence are not available here anymore.Also the Lux with rose petals stuck on it was the best,they looked really cute.Lux is certainly luxury and fits the budget.Another thing is like Palmolive Lux comes in value packs of 5 or 3 and they… Read more
are easily available in any pharmacy or store. Cheap-Nice fragrances-does not dissolve easily when left in water Nothing striking-it does the job a soap must do but sometimes i think it loses its fragrance towards the end
Terrible – This is a cheap, basic soap. We brought a bunch of the purple bars (lavender?) because they were cheap. This soap smells mildly of soap and flowers, and is not unpleasant. I found it lathered easily and well, and cleaned my skin well. However it does (like a lot of bar soaps) leave my skin feeling drier after. After a few weeks use my sister and I… Read more
have both found that it has caused acne breakouts on our chest and back, so have stopped using it. Now we have many bars left we don't want to use. It is inexpensive and available everywhere Left skin feeling drier, caused acne breakouts
Good – I used to think one soap would be as good as any other-till I tried some of the really cheap brands. Nasty, nasty, nasty. Horrid textures and scents. Some felt rough. In comparison, Lux is luxury or deluxe. It has a lovely soft feel to it, very smooth. It has a nice scent and overall, it isn't too bad a price if you buy the bulk pack, and they… Read more
are all individually wrapped. It is good quality for a reasonable price. Probably there are better soaps on the market-but you pay big bucks for them. It has a nice, soft feel to it and comes in a variety of colours and scents. You can also buy quite a few for a reasonable price. Nothing really to say against it.
OK – My mom and my sister love Lux soap. If only it can maintain the moisture of my skin and make it hypo-allergenic so that even consumers with sensitive skin like me can use it regularly, I would have chosen this soap for my regular use and that of my entire family. Lux Soap is one of the cheapest brand of bath soap in the market. This appeals most… Read more
especially to old ones. This is because Lux has been in the market for decades! A reliable soap brand I should say in terms of cleansing properties, scent and being economical. I cannot use Lux for a long period of time because I have a very sensitive skin and it makes my skin dry and irritated.
Good – Lux soap has been around for ever and I always remember that it was a favourite in our household as a child. It is still the same and comes in a large enough bar to last some time. The soap comes in a variety of next luxury flavours these days and smell really nice to use. It is an inexpensive soap that is readily available and has retained its… Read more
quality over the years. Comes in a nice range of flavours and scents. Can buy in larger packet sizes. The soap is a large enough size to last a while. There are none.
Bad – I love the Lux body wash so thought I would like the soap, but it is just a cheap nasty soap in my opinion. There were a few scents I liked, but most I didn't. It dried my skin out and is not good for anyone with sensitive skin. I wouldn't really recommend it unless you were desperate. It is cheap and is easy to get. They were good for my husbands… Read more
back acne. I don't like most of the scents, they smell like cheap soap, which this is I guess. It is not good for sensitive skin and they dried my skin out.
