Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel Review

I have heard people rave about this product and have always found it a hard product to find because it is seasonal.

But I came across a bottle of this in America and HAD to see what all the fuss was about. I walked into the store and knew I had found it once I saw how gorgeous it was!

First of all, the smell! If that isn't enough to have you hooked I don't know what is. It smells like Christmas in a bottle. Very sweet, it is described like candy floss & bubble gum.

It lathers on nicely and makes your skin feel amazing once washed off. It does have a bit of glitter in it as well, but I love myself a bit of sparkle!

Love this product, get in quick for Christmas :D

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!)

This is one of my most fave lush products (OK I haven't tried a massive amount before though). It is a deliciously sweet, pink concoction that makes me feel fabulously girly. I think it's a product that you will either love or hate. If you don't like sweet smelling things, you won't like this at all. I personally think, the sweeter the better and it's as if lush designed this based on my love of sweet. This is described as smelling like cotton candy and it definitely smells like that. I'm also reminded a bit of childhood medicine, which I suppose is odd but I still like it.

I have the largest bottle at the moment, I've used up two small bottles before. I think the prices are reasonable. It's not supermarket cheap but $35 for a 500ml bottle that will last a long time as you don't need to use a lot, is a good deal to me. The packaging is basic but I like that you can see through the bottle into this sparkly pink mix. It also has a sticker on it saying the exact date it was made, an exact use by date and who was the person that made it.

This lathers really well and makes me feel clean and smelling good. The scent makes my bathroom smell so good and lingers on my skin for a little bit after i get out of the shower.

The only downside i can think of, is that it's a limited edition product. It is only sold twice a year but thankfully they do keep bringing it out every year.

I'd definitely recommend at least sniffing this at a lush shop, it's lovely but not for everyone!

Ah Snow Fairy, you should be called The Bubblegum Fairy.

The Snow Fairy shower gel is a bubblegum, vanilla and candyfloss scented shower gel. Personally I find it smells like bubblegum and general sweetness.

In terms of performance, it performs like a standard shower gel and leaves the skin with a slight snow fairy fragrance.

The shower gel is a hot pearly pink and packaged in a recyclable "non-vigin" plastic bottle. And I like how it says on the bottle about recycling bottle tops at your local lush store. Which also matches up nicely with the Lush ideals on the enviroment.

All in all it's a lovely girly shower gel. And I love the smell. I just wish it were a little cheaper.

I had been waiting all year for the Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel to come out in stores! Convinced the boyfriend to buy me a nice big bottle, and have been loving it all season!

Before I start on the actual product, I think it's so great that LUSH stands for so many wonderful things like natural ingredients, handmade products, cruelty-free methods, etc. So awesome that in buying Snow Fairy it's also supporting such a great cause.

The product itself is a total dream. The scent is VERY sweet and sugary - I personally love it, but if you're not a sweet scent person then you will be very overwhelmed by this fragrance! It is a very strong candyfloss-type smell. The shower gel is bright pink with natural mica glitters, lathers up great using a loofah, and is very soft and gentle on skin. It leaves the skin with a very subtle Snow Fairy fragrance throughout the day, which I absolutely love. When my bottle runs out I will be very disappointed - but ready to stock up again next year!

I joined the masses when the Snow Fairy Shower Gel came out with the Xmas stock. I love me some cotton candy pink looking girly stuff to sit in my shower. The fact that it smells like sweet candy was just a plus.

I was greedy, as normal when it comes to anything Lush so got the biggest bottle in 500g and paid $34.95. Some may think, whoa $34.95 for shower gel really?! I would rather the $5 stuff at the supermarket. My thoughts are if I can keep it natural, and animal cruelty free then I am winning at life and supporting a great cause.

I love sweet scents normally but when I took my first deeps sniffs of this Snow Fairy, my senses were overloaded. I love sweet but this was sickening to say the least. I couldn't bring myself to keep it so passed it on to the next willing participant. I was ok with this decision until I got some more for xmas from my step daughter! I was immediately transported to my own personal candy kingdom. The smell I get from it is fruit stick lollies. I don't know why but when I first had a whiff it wasn't for me. This time I wanted to swim in a big pool of it.

I alternate now between this and another Lush shower gel I am obsessed with. This shower gel lathers up very easily and feels like a silken sheet of bubbles all over my body. Once rinsed the heavenly scent continues and my skin feels like squishy velvet. The smell of candy stays on my skin for hours after and I often get told I smell good. after using it. My son even likes to sniff me because "I smell like a mummypop" lol his words. Seriously I didn't love it at first but now, I have found a new fave! Gimmie moooooore.

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 ;-)

i like the smell of this product although not as much as others as it is a little sweet and sickly. however like all the lush shower gels this has a great texture that lathers well and does not dry out the skin at all whilst leaving it smelling faintly of the shower gel which is nice. I also love the bright pink colour.

This lovely product came inside the gorgeous Snow Fairy Christmas box at Christmas (Boxing Day sale).

It is inside a brown bottle with a pop top, and you squeeze out the amount of product you like to use. The product itself is all pink and smushy and gloopy and gorgeous. And the scent? Faaaaabulous! It’s kind of like vanilla essence but very sweet.

I’ve been using it in the bath and love the way it clings to my skin for hours afterwards, and I can smell it every time I go into the bathroom – I love that, a scented bathroom is such a delight.

The product ad says you can invite a little magic into your shower with this candy scented sparkling shower gel. Indeed – it is magical and reminiscent of happy candy-scented childhood memories.

A wonderful product for adults and children alike.

Hearing so much about this shower gel I just had to see what the fuss was about. Not a big fan of anything pink and girly!

My first though upon opening the bottle was that it smelled just like Jelly Tip icecream, which prompted a trip into town to purchase one.

It's quite pretty with a lot of glitter in it although I didn't really notice it on my skin after using it (thankfully). Using it I wasn't that keen on the scent when it was warm. Nice, but nothing that really appealed to me, I felt it was more like a kids product. Don't feel like it was moisturising. It didn't dry my skin out anyway so that's a bonus.

Not something I would buy again, sadly I got sick of it quickly.
