I bought this shower gel in the scent Vanilla and Raspberry for $2.50 at Countdown when it was on special. For $1 per 100ml, this was a bargain.
The first thing that drew me to this on the shelves was the pink on pink. The writing is pink, the gel is pink. I love pink! The second thing was the huge 'On Sale' sticker in front of it. I popped the lid and had a whiff, and OH. MY. GOSH. Is this what heaven smells like!? "Mum! MUM!!" (I'm shouting at her from an aisle over) "Oh my god you gotta smell this" I make her smell it. She's not as hooked as I am. I smell the other smells (actually managing to get it on my nose) but its too late, I have this bottle in my eyes (like heart eyes or dollar sign eyes). I buy it.
I cannot believe this is a natural fragrance, and not with all the chemicals added to get this smell. The only time I have smelled anything remotely as sugary and delicious as this, is when I get a bag of pick 'n' mix candy from New World, and they have soft candy hearts that smell EXACTLY like this. I cant even tell you which is more prominent, the vanilla or the raspberry. It's a tie, a perfect, delicious mix of the two.
The lid snaps open and shut easily, and it doesn't leak as it sits on its head. The product comes out easily, if not a little rugged, but it softens and smooths itself out and looks absolutely divine. The only problem I have is I think the lather could be bigger, but that's a minor issue with something that smells this damn good.
The gel, once rinsed off and you are dry, isn't drying, my skin actually looks good before I put on a moisturizer (something that rarely happens). I have also discovered that the lingering smell once showered isn't as potent as I would like, I can't smell it right now and I used it at 7:30 this morning (this time of day does exist, whaaat!?), so that's unfortunate, but I can forgive.
It took 82 sunrises to help make this shower gel, and I am grateful for every one of them!
I love this shower gel, for one main reason. It smells delicious! My personal favourite is the mint and tea tree shower gel, it kind of tingles your skin as you wash, not to mention it smells amazing. It doesn't dry my skin out like other soaps and body washes do, and I love that the bottle has the lid on the bottom, so it's easier to get that last little bit of product out. If you are thinking of buying this product, I have two words for you. GET IT!!
