While I am in love with the perfume, I have to admit I am unsatisfied with the shower gel/mousse version of Pink Sugar.

Cons:
-Does not smell like Pink Sugar...
-Smells like cinnamon buns mixed in with butter & nuts.

Pros:
-Lightweight texture
-Cleans AND moisturizes

Overall I would not repurchase, seeing as scent plays a huge part in my book for weather a shower gel/mousse is a hit or miss. This was definitely a miss. Aquolina don't worry though, you still have my heart. ;)

I got a set with the 1 oz perfume small lotion and scrub/ shower gel. I absolutely love the smell of the bathroom after I take a bath with this. It smells yummy and then afterwards I spray on the perfume and the scent lasts for a while. I think that compared to so many other shower gels this one is true to the scent of the perfume.

I bought a kit at Sephora with the perfume, lotion and body wash of Pink Sugar. The body wash is great. It smells just like the perfume!! -which i adore- too bad the smell doesn't last out of the shower. Oh well, i got the perfume and lotion to cover that!

love the fragrance. hate the soap! did not think the fragrance lasted outside the shower and even hoped the smell of the bathroom would last as mentioned by others. but no. the only really good thing i can say is that it is not as drying as l'occitaine shower gels. love the perfume though and do not feel it is just for the young ones.

While I'm not a big fan of the Pink Sugar fragrance, I received a sample tube of Pink Sugar Glossy Shower Gel and decided to try it. It seems, to my nose at least, creamier and sugar-ier than the fragrance. As I have a terrible sweet tooth, this is definitely a good thing! There is a very slight hint of soap underneath all the sweet notes, which serves to remind me that this honey-colored gel is for the shower, not for dessert. I find that it lathers well (though perhaps I'm using more than I need to due to the heavenly fragrance) and it doesn't seem to strip my skin or leave a film, either. I can smell it on my skin after I get out of the shower, but I didn't notice it the morning after the shower. The actual experience and scent of using this shower gel is so great, I have to give it 4 stars. I always end up looking at this shower gel when I am shopping a friends and family sale (with a good discount) or I have a gift card, since I do think US$18 is a little steep for it. But once I start running out of my Bath and Body Works shower gels, I'm going to purchase this. I'd recommend this to anyone who loves super sweet fragrances and doesn't have particularly dry skin.

Smells close enough to the cologne version, oodles of bubbles, feels moisturizing. I adore this fragrance for using just before turning in for the night - it makes me feel satisfied/content/secure - like a well-fed, freshly bathed & powdered, snug little baby who has the most attentive parents in the world guarding her. That said, I wouldn't want to smell like this for daytime/public interaction.

Scent is not as strong as the perfume. This is a golden yellow bath gel that is not an a great cleanser. I expected the shower gel to be pink in color. Halfway through the shower I just did not want to continue using this cheap cleanser and I switched to my Laura Mercier creme brulee cleanser. Buy it if you love the Pink Sugar line of products. If you are just looking for different scented bath gels, like me, then try Laura Mercier, Philsophy, Kiss My Face and Giovanni bath gels - all of which are effective cleansers and smell wonderful!

First of all, I'm in love with this scent! When I saw they had a shower gel, I had to have it. The shower gel's smell is true to the perfume, except I think it smells a bit spicier (more of the licorice note). Don't expect it to moisturize, though. I think it's called "glossy" shower gel just for the hell of it, because it's not like it glosses your skin or anything. I wish it had a cuter bottle and that the gel was pink (it's yellow)...but hey, nobody's perfect ;) I'll be buying again and again.

Eh, run of the mill shower gel, cleans ok, leaves a bit of a film if not rinsed off well. Smell is reminiscent of Pink Sugar perfume, but much much less strong. I can barely smell this in the shower, nor on my skin afterward so I cant say much about its layering power. It does foam nicely in a pouf. I have semi dry skin and this just doesnt do it for me. Not moisturizing at all in my opinion. I can have the same or better results from a 3.00 gel from elsewhere... and can layer the scent by rubbing some vaseline on my pulsepoints and spraying with the real pink sugar perfume.

IF you like the perfume then this is a must have. At $18 for a tube, its rather pricey. Smells exactly like the perfume, warm vanilla candy scent. I dont notice any glossiness when using this. Lathers nicely. What makes this product stand out is that after you rinse off and get out of the shower, you can still smell it. Really a must have layering piece to keep the scent going all day long.

i quite liked aquolina pink sugar at first sniff so i decided to purchase the body wash first to see if i liked wearing the scent everyday.it is light but sometimes i find myself catching a whiff of a delicious scent throughout the day. the body wash in itself is a good product. it does not create a very rich lather but that could be because i only use a little though you get ALOT in the tube. i noticed that there is a picture of a little chili on the tube and i do think that though this scent is sweet, it does have a spicy element to it also. i have very sensitive skin and this has been fine on my skin. i have been using my normal body wash (aveeno for dry skin) all over then using this for scent on my upper half. therefore i have not noticed any dryness. i cant wait to get some of the perfume itself!

I had a sample of this and while I enjoyed using it, I do not believe I'd purchase a full-sized version. The scent is the same as the perfume, just maybe not quite as strong (smoky, toasty marshmallow-y sugar--sweet and dusky). Decent amount of foam but not moisturizing at all and the scent did not last on my skin.

This smells wonderful! It lathers very nicely and makes taking a shower a very pleasant experience. If you love cotton candy like me, then you will love this!

Terrific shower gel! The thickness and consistency of honey, a perfect match of the delicious scent of Pink Sugar, and a teeny bit gives a nice amount of lather. This should last for quite awhile, which is the reason I didn't take off a lippie for the price. The scent is lasting, and you might even be able to forego the perfume and smell nearly as luscious. Scents the bathroom too! Very pleased with this product, and would buy again if I run out.

LOVE it. Smells exactly like the perfume...lingers softly behind. I look forward to my showers with this rich and thick gel. A little goes a long way. If you love your Pink Sugar products - this will not disappoint!

I love this. It's an awesome way to start of a totally Pink Sugar day. The glossy shower gel is so dense that it doesn't take more than a tiny squeeze into a shower puff to cleanse and scent my (very large) entire body. I just wish they made a Pink Sugar shampoo, too! It is the most expensive shower gel I've ever purchased, and I can't afford to buy it often, so I don't use it often so I can make it last, but when I use it, wow, it just instantly puts me in that "Pink Sugar" mood. I love this stuff and when the bottle runs out, it's one of the few brands/scents of shower gel I'll actually repurchase rather than just trying something new and different.

I got this in a swap brand new, unfortunately, the post office must have been rough and tumble that day because the tube exploded at the end (so I can't say I'm crazy about the packaging for that fact alone). HOWEVER, I do approve of the thick texture and a little goes a long way....lasts a LONG time just to shower with alone (alot of other body washes fade) and your bathroom smells pleasant long after you have dried! OK, so Pink Sugar grew on me a bit (either that or I hate to waste and have to get rid of this!)... I do really approve of this body gel and adore the lather and overall it is a great body wash....has my approval, but not my wallets! :) Like the review below it IS a true to form scent in the body wash!

I cannot seem to live without this stuff! Smells very true to the fragrance, but in a nice muted way, and has good lasting power. A little goes a long way, so it's really a good deal too... finally finished my first bottle and onto the second!

I was short on cash and wanted the fragrance of Pink Sugar so I went for this instead. It smells lovely, but doesn't really last on my skin. It is very moisturizing though and the texture is pleasing.
