Lush Dr. Peppermint Shampoo Bar Review, Photos
In my freshman year of high school I went to our Halloween bash dressed as the Demon. No worries, I wasn’t alone, Starchild, Catman, and Spaceman were all my wingwomen. Actually there was a little bickering involved about who would be the Starchild, you know, I’ve always wanted to be Paul Stanley when I grew up…but I figured Gene Simmons was the next best thing.
Needless to say the costumes didn’t go over big with the nuns at our private catholic girl’s high school but we had fun none the less. Till this day KISS still rocks my adult life, my sister says I was born in the wrong era….
Moral of the story? Couldn’t help but hum Dr Love as I was washing my hair this morning with a little Lush Dr Peppermint thus my KISS reference eh?
The Doctor is in….
A solid shampoo bar with a crisp, cool peppermint scent!
Lush dubs this a bar for baldies ha! I’m not going bald thankfully but I use it regardless as it’s also for all hair types, long, short, dry, oily….What draws me to it is the cool, crisp peppermint scent plus the fact that it clarifies my hair extremely well and gets it squeaky clean sans build up!
What’s a shampoo bar?
Unfamiliar with shampoos are you? There Lush’s idea to a travel friendly, easy to use bar of soap in a shampoo format. Shaped like a hockey puck you simply wet this guy up and slide him across the top of your head one or two times and proceed to lather up with your hands. Nifty eh? Less waste in the bottle and packaging department too!
These are nifty for travel as Lush actually gives you a free tin to store them in if you buy two or more bars. Slip one in a tin and go on Holiday or overnight to your boyfriend’s pad, etc…..You can even multitask ’em as soap if you want although I suggest for hair only (kinda squeamish about using a bar on my body and proceed to use it on my hair, dig?).
My hair is pretty dry, long, wavy, curly, and crazy hard to manage which is one reason I prefer wearing it up and out of my face. Dr. Peppermint does well as a twice a week shampoo for my type of hair since it clarifies well but also dries out my hair a bit too so if you’re oily you might want to consider it to tame such a problem!
No bad here, just joy!
- Anyone wanting a travel friendly shampoo (TSA can’t bitch about this).
- Anyone wanting to remove build up and clarify hair (this does a super job of getting your hair squeaky clean).
- Anyone who loves the scent of sweet peppermint!
- Anyone who prefers a liquid shampoo (the novelty is def the fact that this is solid).
I’m a great lover of Lush Shampoo Solids and Dr. Peppermint is a fav. I love the crisp, cooling sensation on my scalp and feel it does a damn good job of getting my grungy hair back in order again! If you’re aren’t a fan of peppermint, Lush makes several other solids in various scents for various hair care needs.

I’ve been a fan of Dr. Peppermint for a LONG time and happy to say that its been Retro Lush’ed for the past year or so. Which means you can grab it anytime you like even though it was discontinued for ages!
Very Muse Approved for purchase!
