Snow Fairy Shower Gel

Snow Fairy Shower Gel

Lush Description 2013

No bathroom would be complete this Christmas without a bottle of Lush's fruity, sugary and sparkly Snow Fairy shower gel. Candyfloss pink and with a sweet, magical scent of soothing and comforting vanilla, the flecks of blue glitter leave you shimmering.  Wash your hair and body with this sparkling seasonal must-have.

Lush-pedia review
Take Lush's word for it, your bath experience will never be complete until you have tried this. It is just like liquid fairy floss that cleans you. Unlike other lush products I can't sense multiple scents happening in this one, it really is just pink sugary goodness; it is the sweetest shower gel I have found from Lush, and the prettiest (candy floss pink with beautiful little flecks of glitter) and it lathers up really well. I also love washing my hair with this, just so I can get a waft of it every time my hair catches a breeze. Shockingly, I have heard the odd Lush fan not liking this one, and while I struggle to comprehend this it definitely tips the scales on sweetness so you might not love this one if you don't like strong candy scents. Alternatively, if you can't trust yourself not to try and taste this one (no judgement here) you should team it up with bubblegum lip scrub because this one smells very similar (and you're allowed to lick what's left over!). P.S. When you have the opportunity to purchase Snow Fairy at Christmas time, make sure you get a few because you'll want to use this all the time, and even multiple times within one bath or shower, you can thank me later.

Lush-pedia review

Recently I was making an order from the Lush Kitchen and this little beauty happened to be on offer. I have never tried it before as it is a discontinued item, and I also haven't tried anything else with this scent from Lush so I decided to add it to my basket as the description of a fruity gel sounded nice and it had good reviews. The bottle I scored is bright yellow and it has a very strong, sharp citrus smell (it smells like it would taste like yellow Starburst lollies!). I love this kind of scent but I could understand how others may find the scent slightly sickly. I couldn't be happier to have this in my collection though and it's a gel I will hoard for years to come (or better yet, stock up if this ever comes on offer again). It lathers up really well too. Overall I highly recommend this and I only wish I knew before I purchased it how great it was or I would have stocked up on more!

Lush-pedia review

Hmm... I'm still not sold on this. Like with some other gels, I ordered this blindly from the kitchen, mostly because I read a review that mentioned something about black sugar and that was enough for me. I also read 'lavender' in the ingredients and thought that it was going to be in the Twilight scent family. I was wrong, but it's not all bad! It has a thicker consistency than other shower gels from Lush (relatable to the consistency of Yummy Yummy Yummy shower gel) and is a dark grey colour. It pretty much just smells like very luxurious chamomile lotion mixed with a few other nice things like faint lavender.  It does smell very relaxing, and after overcoming the initial disappointment of it being nothing like Twilight and not being a sweet scent I was able to enjoy it, although after having it over a month I have only reached for it a few times. I like this, but I definitely like other gels from Lush a lot better and in the future I think I would stock up on others instead of this one if it were ever available again. Don't get me wrong though, I'm still happy to have it kicking around in my collection and it was worth buying it to try it.
