Vanilla snow woman glistening trio - bath and shower gel by Cake Beauty - review by Eva Schwaltz

The Vanilla Snow Woman Glistening Trio is a nice set from Cake Beauty containing three different vanilla scented products. It has a lip gloss, body wash, and body moose. Each product has a bit of added glitter to give you that extra shine, but you won’t be swimming in glitter. You can get this as a nice treat for yourself, but it would also b a great gift for a friend.

The lip gloss is called Pink Icicle. I now have two of these since one came with the Winter Wonder Lip Gloss Set which I definitely recommend you check out also. It’s a very thick gloss that you apply with it’s brush. One swipe is good enough to coat the lips nicely. It’s slightly sticky, but your lips won’t be sticking together. It glides on smooth and makes the lips feel very slick. It will last for an hour or so, which is very good for a gloss.

The body wash is quite thick like any good shower gel should be. It lathers up nicely with a loofah, but if you just try to use your hands, it won’t spread around as nicely. It washes off easily, making me feel fresh and clean. You can’t feel the glitter in it, and it doesn’t leave behind any glitter once washed away.

The body moose is my favorite out of the set. When I think of moose, I think of hair products, but this is essentially a lotion. The only problem I have is squeezing it out of the bottle. My bottle is extremely dense for some reason. The body moose has the perfect consistency, not too thin, not too thick. A small glob will spread around and absorb quite quickly, and it won’t leave behind any sticky, oily, or greasy residue. The only thing it leaves behind is a delicious scent.

All three products have a nice soft vanilla scent to them. The lip gloss is probably the lightest, and the body wash I think is the strongest. The scent of the lotion lasts the longest, but it’s very light. It’s a very sweet vanilla smell, like vanilla ice cream or vanilla cake.

The lip gloss has a slight sweet taste, but it has a chalky aftertaste if you lick too much of it off. The other two are not meant to be ingested even though they smell absolutely delectable.

The lip gloss is really nice because it doesn’t irritate or dry out the lips. It doesn’t give any color, but it is very shiny and slightly shimmery. It’s not as moisturizing as a balm, but it smells nice and makes for a great addition to this set.

You only need a small dab of body wash on a loofah to produce a nice lather. It fills the air with the vanilla scent while you are using it. A lot of soaps and body washes dry out my skin, but not this stuff. This is also tough to squeeze out of the bottle. I wish it had a pump top to make it easier. It makes me feel totally refreshed with just a light fragrant vanilla scent on my skin.

The lotion is wonderful. I love to put it on in the morning after my shower and it is truly a pick me up. The scent lasts all day without leaving any residue or staining my clothing. It makes my skin feel soft and moisturized, excellent to use for the long winter months. This is one of the best lotions I have tried.

The packaging is very nice. It shows a picture of all three products with a bit of product information. The box is really easy to open, and can be recycled. The body wash and body moose come in 4 fl.oz bottles, and the lip gloss has 0.4 fl.oz.

This would be an excellent gift for a friend or family member for the holidays. Cake Beauty sells their stuff in a lot of stores, so no one will know where you got this set.
