Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel Review

I am a big fan of the Snow Fairy. I tried it a few years ago and was hooked!! It comes in the standard Lush bottle which is great to throw in your sponge bag when heading away for the weekend. Very fragrant and a hit if you like sweet scents and the smell of bubblegum. It has glitter in it also but not so much that you end up having to clean the shower each time you have used it. The only problem with this product is that it is not available all the time, it is a Christmas specialty product but well worth the wait I feel.

There was so much hype around this so I was super excited to get it, but i was kind of disappointed by it. The scent is so strong and so sickly sweet. The scent also stays on the skin quite a while too. The price of this is also quite a lot, though i understand that you pay for the quality products but it's just a bit much for me. I'm sure if you like strong scents then you'll love this though

I absolutely love this stuff! It smells like candy and bubblegum goodness. This is a limited edition product thats sold at Christmas time BUT mid way through the year Lush will sometimes sell a few bottles of this online... Yay! The liquid is pink and super shimmery but doesn't actually leave a shimmer on the skin. Your bathroom will smell so good afterwards - like a little piece of heaven :) If you're not a fan of sweet smells you won't like this at all. My mum and boyfriend both hate the smell of this. It's definitely a perfect gift for younger family members at Christmas time!

I bought my first bottle of this a couple of years ago and ever since that I've bought a bottle (or 10) every time it gets put out on the shelves. I love the scent and the colour but most of all I like how it doesn't dry out my skin. I'm recommend it to anyone who loves a good smelling body wash but that fact that it's a natural lush product is a huge bonus!

Love love love snow fairy! Not too keen on the price but if you're sneaky and go on boxing day, 50% off all christmas stock!! I love using this with my exfoliating glove and makes me smell amazing! dont't know whether to use it sparingly over the year or just go crazy! Boyfriend loves it too which is a plus

I've heard so much about this Lush favourite but being such a highly sought-after Limited Edition product I could never get my hands on it. I finally managed to snag a bottle during Lush's Christmas in July to test it out for myself.

The packaging is the standard simplistic Lush clear bottle with printed label marked with use by date (yes it does expire!). Luckily it has quite a long shelf-life so I wouldn't expect it to, if you're anything like me this will be gone well before it expires.

The thick gel is a girly bubblegum pink sprinkled with glitter. This is a sweet-tooth's delight, smelling strongly of candyfloss and bubblegum, just like Lush's lip scrub! The scent is very long-lasting as well and after showering with a squirt of this I can smell it lingering in the bathroom long after.

This is a tad on the sweeter side for me to use every day but something I like for when I'm wanting to feel particularly girly, as a pick me up or when I want to be pampered. I think this would make the perfect gift as well for younger girls who I'm sure will go crazy over the fragrance. I know I'll be buying a couple more bottles at the end of the year and highly recommend you do too!

This, could possibly be the most hyped up product when it comes to Lush. Its a big call, but i think i am right, because i have heard about the product alot. When i first heard about lush, i was introduced to this product, but i never brought it because, its only a body wash. Like i need to spend $22 on a body wash.

Well, it seems like since that original thought, my self-resistance has weakened even more if that was possible. When Mid-winter July came around, i snapped this up in a heart beat, and let me tell you. It did not dissapoint.

This body wash comes in a plastic bottle, with a black lid. The lid only has a small hole, so only a little bit of the product is released at a time. Clearly a good thing considering the price.

The clear bottle lets you see the pretty pink liquid in side, which is flecked with little pieces of glitter. Sigh* So pretty. The consistency of this is.. hard to describe. I would consider quite thick for a body wash, and would maybe compare it the consistency of honey? Maybe even thicker.

And the smell.. Wowzers. It smells like candyfloss, sweet treat, happiness and unicorns.. okay well i don't know about that last two, but its smells amazing. Its sweet, and i find it really uplifting because i love a sweet sugary smell. This smell also lingers on the skin so double bonus. It lathers really well, and cleans skin without stripping it.

This is my special shower gel, its way to nice to use everyday, especially when i can't get my hands on this again till xmas. If it was more affordable, i would use this and nothing else. But it is pricey (the only con about this product), but a nice treat in the shower or bath.

This is another of Lush's limited editions! This one comes out twice a year for Christmas and also the mid year Christmas that Lush celebrates in this part of the world. Everyone always raves about this one. I always give it a sniff in the shop and think "nope, not for me" There has been much excitement about this on the forum as it has come back into the shops again so I decided to give it a go. As I was still finding it's sweet smell a little overwhelming for me, I picked up a generous sample from my local Lush. The full sizes come in the usual Lush shower gel packaging: a clear round bottle, with a black and white label that has a use by sticker telling you who made it, and a black flip top lid. It is available in three different sizes.

This is bright, girly pink - I didn't notice any lustre or shimmer in the sample I received although apparently it's in there. Lush describe it as smelling of bubble gum, vanilla and cotton candy and I think this is very accurate. It is very heavy on the candy smell to me, which lingers after you have showered. I used it in conjunction with Ro's Argan body conditioner, which toned the sweetness down.

I won't be purchasing this as I just find the smell too sweet. It does the job as far as being a shower gel goes and leaves my skin feeling nice but I think I would get sick of it after a few uses. Funnily enough, I love the Lush Candy Mountain bubble bar which is essentially the same smell but you only get a couple of uses out of it. If you love sweet candy smells though, you will definitely love this. I will stick to Rose Jam and leave this one in the shop for all the people who want to stockpile it for the year (sort it out, Lush!)

I first tried this when I did an order with the gorgeous Shana. I opened the lid of her bottle and had a sniff, and then another and another. Holy crap! This is Snow Fairy!?!? I stole a tiny amount to wash my hands with and fell in love with the smell on my hands, but at the time it made my hands feel a bit dry and it put me off, and I couldn't understand why people loved something that was so drying.

Fast forward a few months, I was sent a sample of it in an order. Well! I used it in the shower and it was a different story. The scent of Snow Fairy engulfed me and I was living in a candy wonderland, where it was all rainbows and sunshine and candy floss clouds. It smells so very sweet and like everything is right in the world. Unfortunately for my bank account, I was hooked.

The color is a gorgeous pink with a purpley blue shimmer glitter throughout the entire gel. It's very attractive and I can't bring myself to use my 100ml because I like to pick it up and sniff it and move the gel around so I can see it shimmering. The scent lasts a while on the skin, but it would last longer with a lotion (c'mon Lush!! I need it!!). And surprisingly, it's not as drying as I originally thought it was, in fact, it's perfect, and I'm in love. I have already stocked up so hopefully I have enough to last until the mid winter Christmas ;-)
