I love the way this souffle smells, as well as how it feels in the jar and applies without being sticky. I keep it next to my bed & use it at nite. The next morning and throughout the day, my skin is so, so soft.


I will buy again next time it's in a Philosophy kit that makes it a bargain, but otherwise I consider it to be expensive even tho I love it.

Light and fluffy body souffle - bought primarily for its "layering with the other versions of Pure Grace" properties.

It applies easily and doen't *sit* on the skin - and it smells like Pure Grace. What more could I want?

I use it for treats, special occasions and times when I need the confidence boost that smelling gorgeous from head to toe gives me!

I have a standard body lotion for everyday use, but I love the days when I chose to use this souffle instead. Most mornings I just have to be content with sniffing the pot!

I must have gotten souffle from a bad batch at Sephora. I did not think that the scent or texture of the lotion was nice, and I LOVE the Pure Grace spray and solid. I do not want to repurchase this.

I have to agree with other MUAers on the moisturization factor of this souffle. I love the smell, but I cannot use this on it's own-- it comes out sticky on me and doesn't hydrate at all. However, I layer this over unscented Curel lotion and it's as if this is an entirely different product! Like many others, I use this mainly to layer the scent. It actually lasts quite a long time on me.

For $35 for a 7.5 oz jar I'm not overly thrilled with this. Not as moisturizing as the pump lotions like Baby grace. The smell is just okay too although my DH loves it on me. I like this but dont love it. I have to love something to repurchase so I wont be buying this again. Philosophy is still one of my favorite lines though.

I really love this souffle. The scent is the main point for me, because I only use it to layer with my Pure Grace fragrance spray. If all I were interested in was moisture, I'd look for something much cheaper to slather on.
I love sinking my fingers into the tub of this--it really is a divine consistency, like a dense pudding. The souffle makes my skin feel soft and hydrated AND it makes my Pure Grace last longer.

I love the smell of pure grace. even with layering, the scent does not last though:(-this is a nice souffle, light enough to not feel heavy,and heavy enough to moisturize my excema ridden skin

I adore this body lotion... but not necessarily because the lotion is so great (it's pretty average).. but because the Pure Grace scent is my favourite fragrance.
The body souffle itself is very nice. It's moderately moisturizing, drys quickly and isn't overly greasy. But if it didn't have the Pure Grace fragrance... I'd be very disappointed that I spent so much $$ on it.

I adore pure grace, and this smells very nice but it is not as moisturizing as the bottled body lotions as mentioned by another reviewer. I had hoped since it is a smaller size that it would have something to show for the amount of money that philosophy is charging. I wound up disappointed. Why, oh why can't they put this in a bottle?

This does smell great & it does "dry" fast BUT I really think it's NOT worth the $$$ I can find alot of lotions, butters , souffles , etc that smell & moisturize just as good 9if not better) for a LOT cheaper . So no I wouldn'd buy again : (

I could sit and breathe in and out of this jar all day, I love it so much. It smells sooo good.I wish it came in a pump. I don't know why all creams and lotions don't come in pumps, because it is more convenient and sanitary.At the prices we pay for things like this item (it is expensive)nothing should be spared. It should come in a pump!

This is not as moisturizing as I would have expected from a'tub' but it is dexcribed as lighta dn fluffy. It says it has toning properties and antioxidants. Smells DIVINE and my skin does feel very soft adn smooth. Nice if you do not like a greasy feel. Would compliment any of the Grace scents

For a product so expensive ($35 for 7.5 oz.), I expected a bit more in the area of moisturizing. This is not even as moisturizing as the body lotions that Philosophy sells for Falling In Love, Baby Grace, etc.! I expected a heavier, thicker, richer formula. While it is thicker than a regular lotion, it still isn't as moisturizing as it could/should be.


The one area where this products DOES perform well is scent. The scent stays on my skin nearly all day and is a great layering tool for my Pure Grace spray, which doesn't last long on its own.


A re-purchase for me only for the layering capabilities.
