The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 15 October 2026 Leave a Comment

From Beekman 1802, Pistachio & Dark Cherry Lip Balm: "Get instant relief for dry, chapped lips with this creamy goat milk lip balm. Scented with indulgent notes of pistachio nougat, dark cherry, and sugar glacé, it keeps lips soft, supple, and kissably sweet. A nourishing blend of goat milk, beeswax, and vitamin E deeply soothes, conditions, and locks in lasting moisture." Currently $7.50 for 4.2g at Beekman 1802.

The back-from-hiatus lemming

Two things I picked up from Lush yesterday, along with a small size of the reissued Mango Lassi shower gel: Banana Shampoo ("We blend over 45% sea salt with fresh banana and sugar cane molasses to make a smoothie for your locks and add softening oils to support tensile strength and shine"; 2 sizes $13.50 - $27; smells fantastic in the tub but I was not as impressed with the smell of the matching conditioner so passed on that) and Chocolate Orange Shower Gel ("This smashing citrus blend of zesty orange, rich vanilla and scrumptious cocoa absolute might just be too good to share … but that’s alright, we won’t tell if you don’t"; 3 sizes $12.50 - $40; likewise smells great in the bottle but maybe heavier on the orange than the chocolate, I will see if I have to mix with Posh Chocolate to get the right proportions).

From The Body Shop, limited edition Ajwa Date & Honey Shower Gel: "Lather up with our Ajwa Date & Honey Shower Gel. Warm, indulgent, and softly sophisticated", $15 for 250 ml at The Body Shop USA. (In some markets you might also find shower gel in Velvet Fig & Pistachio, but it does not appear to be the US at the moment; both fragrances are also sold in Whipped Body Butter and Hand Balm.)

From L'Occitane, a trio of almond hair and body mists, in Amande Pistache ("creamy pistachio with almond accord, enriched by roasted pistachio notes for a subtly nutty depth"), Amande Crème Brûlée ("this dessert-inspired mist...opens with golden roasted almond and unfolds into its creamy heart notes") and Amande Sublime ("Luminous blend of gourmand almond and warm vanilla notes. Infused with delicate notes of freesia and bergamot"). The Mist Trio, 3 x 100 ml, is $126, or you can buy separately for $42 each, at L'Occitane.

From Luna Nectar, Nocturne Magnesium Sleep Oil: "Nocturne is a topical magnesium oil that supports sleep and relaxation. Compared to conventional magnesium sprays that may cause itchiness or stinging, our formula is infused with aloe vera to diminish such side effects, and calming lavender to induce relaxation." $39 for 100 ml at Ulta.
