Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel Review

I absolutely love Lush shower gels. I tend to stock up during their sales by purchasing a few of the gift boxes, so I usually get the shower gels in 100ml sizes. Lush products in general can be a little expensive, but I feel like the shower gels are great value for money and come in such a great range of scents. Since you only need a little bit to get a good amount of lathering and to experience the scent, they last a reasonable amount of time.

I love the scent of Snow Fairy - I also use the Bubblegum lipscrub which has a similar sweet scent, and I have the soap ready to try. Sometimes it can feel a little overwhelming in the shower gel formula (I think it’s the pear notes), but if you enjoy sugary scents then this is perfect. I tended to use it every second day or so, as it’s quite strong and indulgent. It’s not overly creamy and moisturiser is still needed afterwards like with most shower gels, so it’s selling point is really the scent - I’d definitely try a sample or pick up the 100ml bottle to begin with.

The only disappointment came with the sparkle - I could see it in the bottle, but it all sunk to the bottom and I never actually saw it on my skin. Maybe this happened because I used the shower gel after it’s best before date (I had lots of other products to use up first!), but it was a bit of a let down since it looked so pretty in the bottle. I would definitely repurchase, although I’d probably pick up the 100ml bottle again as I love trying a range of shower gels.

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 swooned over this for so long but because my skin is so sensitive I never wanted to spend the money on it incase I couldn't handle it.

I used it relatively sparingly. A) because of the cost and B) because I was afraid if I used it regularly I would flare up. But it still lasts well as in a little does go a long way so I think it is worth it as a little treat for the shower.

It smells VERY candy sweet but is is so delicious! Could be a bit over powering if you're not into the lolly sort of smell but I love it.

It does have subtle glitter in it but I've never noticed this staying on my skin.

My skin never had a reaction even when I used it a few days in a row.

I'll definitely repurchase this again come Christmas time!

This is a very cheerful shower gel. Smells like bubblegum. Pink with blue glitter - although fortunately I never saw any glitter left on my skin.

A little on a shower puff foamed up brilliantly & and I could easily wash myself with one application so this is good value.

Delightful gel to use.

I picked up a 100ml bottle to see what the fuss was over on snow fairy. Upon opening this magical little bottle I could smell wine gums and bubble gum, childhood dreams all over again. The first time I used it all I could seem to smell is jellybeans. If you don't like bright pink with sparkles this is not for you as this is the liquid in the magic bottle. The sparkles do sink to the bottom of the bottle over time and I have never noticed them on me after the shower so I could skip them in the formula to be honest. The gel has a medium consistency and doesn't hold shape once squeezed out. The pink gel lathers easily on my loofah and I feel clean after using it. This is a limited edition at Lush that seems to come out twice a year at present and I am feeling this as a repurchase to remind of childhood dreams.

The smell of this shower gel is very strong and smells super sweet almost overpowering but I personally like strong scented shower gels. It is quite pricey but if you like the smell and you only use a little each time it should last a while

I love this shower gel - it smells divine, goes on silky smooth, and leaves me feeling clean and refreshed. A word of warning though that it can smell a little overpowering if you use too much. My partner finds the smell too sweet - which is good because it just means he doesn’t steal it from me :)

I love this limited edition Snow Fairy shower gel, can't wait for Christmas to roll around so I can get some more. I would have given this a perfect score if it weren't for the rather high price tag for a shower gel and the fact the scent doesn't linger for very long after your shower.

The bottle is OK - I have purchased the large bottle in the past and it ends up looking a bit worse for wear from being squeezed and doesn't hold it's shape but that's a minor gripe. It looks very pretty in the shower until the bottle gets all dented.

You don't need copious amounts of product as it does lather really well, one decent sized squirt is all it takes.

The glitter contained within doesn't cling to your skin, thank goodness. I probably wouldn't use it if it did as I feel glitter is for young people.

The scent is so hard to describe - I wouldn't call it Christmasy. It's very very sweet with an aroma of pear mixed in somewhere there.

It definitely makes showering pleasurable, but for the price I limit myself to one bottle a year.

Snow fairy is a limited edition product that comes out for Christmas. The scent reminds me of bubblegum. It smells so delicious. It's not a shower gel that has any particular benefits. All it does is clean your body, make it smell nice and has a little bit of sparkles. All In all I do buy it every Christmas because I love the smell

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!
