When I was given this I had no idea what a shower smoothie even was/did. So I'll start by explaining how you use a shower smoothie. You use it like a shower gel and either apply it to the skin with either your hands or a loofah. I prefer using my fingers personally. Then just like soap or shower gel you wash it away, hopefully leaving a hint of rose scent behind. Because a shower smoothie is also a creamy whipped type of body wash instead of gel for example, it is also possibly more moisturising.
In regards to Turkish Delight specifically, it was quite a thick shower smoothie with a lovely smooth creamy texture. In colour it is a pale pink and it has quite a sweet rose scent. It didn't in my opinion smell as turkish delight like as some other rosewater products I have smelt.
I felt the product felt lovely on my skin, but I didn't think it was amazing as a moisturing product. I also felt it was a bit overpriced which I have heard is due to importing turkish roses. I think they could use local products and create a cheaper product that doesn't smell much different.
A BR lovely gifted me a pot of this when she decided it wasn't her thing. This is a nostalgia item for me as it's based on an original Cosmetics to Go product (the company that preceded Lush) It isn't sweet like it's name suggests. Instead of being based on the confectionery, it's supposed to smell more like a Turkish bath or hammam. It's is a much headier fragrance than Lush's usual rose offerings and has a muskiness to it. Combined with jasmine, this gives it a really exotic fragrance. This is my favourite thing about this product.
I apply this thick soapy cream in the shower with a sponge and then rinse off. You only want to apply a small amount at a time otherwise more ends up on the shower floor than on your body. It has a slight lather to it. I don't apply body lotion afterwards. It does leave my skin soft but I feel like I want to top the hydration up on my legs.
I would use this again but Lush have discontinued it in this format. It is now a 'roulade' which is a solid version that I'm not so keen on. This is also due to be discontinued. I'm just hoping this means Lush bring this back in this format as I love all the original CTG products.
