My skin would not absorb this. It smells good but each time I used it I had to go wash it off.

Well well well...most of us fell for the fragrance right? Me too.
The packaging is okay but its not very easy to get this out when you are more than half way through. The price is quite steep for a body lotion. This isn't a very moisturising one. I could use it in cooler months (not cold) but this smells so warm and nice that I really wanted this all over my body in winters too. But I cant afford to use 2 proper coats everyday and end up using a lot of it. I figured a way to save as much of it and still get moisturised skin in winters. Here's how I prefer using it. Btw, I dont do this everyday. It really depends on occasion. I use an unscented (some of the heavy duty moisturising ones like Palmers or Eucerin or Aveeno unscented) body lotion right after the shower. Now that my skin is well moisturised with the strong stuff I put on a very thin coat of Vanilla Dee-Lite wherever I want to smell good. Like on arms, legs, neck, upper back and its really up to you. Be careful not to use too much or even as much as we would use normally use or its a waste and you will end up having too much product on your skin. Just one really thin coat of it is all you need. Believe me, this thin coat SMELLS ALL DAY almost!!! I was so surprised. I used it in the morning and its like 7 in the evening now...I still smell this and it hasn't really faded. I will definitely repurchase it during winters...the scent is sooo warm and perfect for the season :)

I like how this is a light weight body lotion, it moisturizes well and sinks in very well!


Only problem is that the smell is a bit too overpowering!

This is my favourite lotion ever. Real vanilla, real jasmine. Smells heavenly. I love that my clothes smell of this when I'm wearing it. Also I love the fact that its full of natural ingredients rather than an extensive list of chemicals. It sinks into skin really quickly. Love it.

I bought this based on MUA reviews. Ya'll definitely steered me in the right direction! This stuff is AMAZING. I cannot describe in words how amazing this scent is. Like another reviewer said, it's not a fake vanilla which is why I love it. A lot of vanilla scents are artificial while this is just pure vanilla goodness without being too overpowering. I can't stop smelling my arms when I use this haha. It is extremely moisturizing and has now replaced my trusty Lubriderm advanced therapy lotion. I love that the scent sticks with me all day, but on days that I want to wear perfume I don't wear this lotion because it is pretty strong for most of the day. I have been fighting liking lush with tooth and nail but I am slowly but surely caving in. I understand why some people are obsessed now because I have found some seriously incredible products lately! This has got to be my favorite lush product though. It's that incredible. Check it out!

Vanilla Dee-lite is a great lotion especially for the upcoming cold winter months. It smells like vanilla bean, however after a couple of hours, the smell completely wore off on me. Very mosturizing, but I was a bit disapointed by this product's lasting power.

I bought this wanting a non foody vanilla scent, and ordered this online from the UK site. It's not that moisturizing, but doesn't get greasy which is nice. however, the scent did not live up to my expectations, and the staying power isn't the best, so I won't repurchase. This is the only lotion I've purchased from lush, i want to try more, next time I will sample the scents before I purchase one though.

OK, everyone is correct about the PRICE..WAY>>WAYY too expensive,. the price for this should e around 12 bucks. Seriously. I too, was not impressed by my first sniff. I couldnt smell it. So I asked the lady for a sample, along with some soap & jelly purchases. I tried it at home, and thought, ..I still dont see it....BUT,...hours later, the faint vanilla cake smell....WAS STILL THERE! That DOES impress me, b/c I shell out A LOT for B&BW products that last for 5 minutes! So, the price is high, but I like the smell, and love the fact that it outlasts most lotions, especially ones with a light scent.

Whenever I smelled this in store, it smelled bland and un-interesting, which was frustrating because the descriptions and reviews online sounded so good! I received a Lush gift box for my birthday, and this was included. I think the bottle being open for weeks, if not months at a time in the shop must cause the scent to disappear, because the new one I received smells amazing! It's such a delicious vanilla smell, so warm and cosy. The jasmine gives it something else too, a different dimension that lifts it from being too sweet. I didn't give it 5, because it isn't amazing as a moisturiser. It's ok, but I need something pretty heavy duty, especially in the winter. It's such a good winter smell though, so I'll probably layer it. I will certainly buy it again.

i bought this because i liked the smell... but i think a few hours after you apply it it starts to smell different, not as nice. it was moisturising though and went on smoothly. only really problem is that i had to keep the bottle upside down as i got to the end and it was hard to sqeeze out.

This is a very pretty jasmine-vanilla combo, a scent I love so much, I love it more than most of my perfumes. Although it is a bit sweet, it isn't too foody, the jasmine keeps it heady and delightful. As far as the quality of the lotion, it isn't the best in the world, but it feels natural and smells so good, I don't really care....

Vanilla Dee-Lite is a liquid body lotion from Lush with contains vanilla, kiwi fruit, coconut butter and illipe butter. It smells very sweet and vanillary with a slight hint of kiwi which stops it from being sickenly sweet. I really love the scent! It absorbs very quickly and does not leave my skin feeling oily in the slightest. It soaks right into my skin, rather than sitting on top. A little goes a long way and you only need a very small dollop on each limb. I would really reccommend this to everyone though some may find it a tad expensive.

Received a sample of this with a purchase a while ago. It was left sitting in a drawer as I originally smelled this and thought it smelled a little fake. But, as with all LUSH scents, this one quickly became addictive. I find myself opening the sample pot to smell it often. I use this on my hands before I go to bed, it absorbs lightning fast, makes my hands incredibly soft and of course, smells delicious. I also used this on my legs after using LUSH Black Stockings body tint to help it absorb quicker, my legs were silky smooth all day and the slightly coconutty vanilla scent blended well with the spicy scent of the tint. The only downside to this product is the price - $35 NZD for a 250g bottle. Despite the pain in my wallet, I probably will purchase this product soon. I may try The Soft Touch solid bar first though. I know it's discon'd, but the shop near me still had about 5 bars last time I went in there. Hopefully they'll still have them. :)

This lotion smells great, its def a LUSH type of vanilla...not a plain common vanilla. It does have a floral note..some other things I cant identify. I didnt LOVE it at first but i've been using it for a few months and now i love it. I mainly use it as hand lotion since it's winter and its not heavy enough for winter. Im really really picky about hand lotion b/c I dont like to feel greasy or tackiness on my hands, and this soaks in really well and leaves my hands silky smooth. I got a bottle in january and still have plenty and I use it everyday...everytime wash my hands and I typically put it all the way up my arm b/c it smells so good. It is kind of pricey if you were to use it on your whole body i wouldnt imagine that it would last long enough to justify the price. HOWEVER i will be repurchasing and probably using on the upper half of my body in the summer and massage bar or king of skin on my legs since they are little drier b/c of shaving.

Very moisturizing, yet thin and not greasy or oily. Has a great consistency because it absorbs into your skin immediately and leaves it very soft. The scent has lots of staying power. A very soft foody vanilla.

This product is creamy and it has a nice light smell to it. I don't think it smells exactly like vanilla...there's a hint of it, but I find that it smells sort of floral, if that makes sense? It feels nice on my skin, and since I got it as a sample, I didn't need to spend money on it to see if I liked it haha! I wouldn't mind buying this product since LUSH products contain mostly natural ingredients, but I'd like to finish all my other lotions before I buy any more.

I am a Lush addict and I have to tie my arms to stop buying stuff from them. I actually like almost all their body care products - at the moment I'm using Vanilla Dee-lite. Its worst flaw is its price, of course/
It is really way too expensive!
However, compared to some cheap body lotions it lasts longer and moisturizes better - not to mention an amazing smell.
It's one of the best vanilla fragrances on the market, I think. It's delicious without being stickily sweet.
But still too expensive - hence 4 lippies instead of 5.

*sigh* I received this lotion as a lovely gift after I drove a prescription four hours round trip to a remote hospital. The scent is a lovely, true vanilla, not too sweet or foody. I was very surprised by the quality of the scent - I'm not a huge LUSH user and was expecting something much more synthetic. The lotion absorbed easily and left my hands feeling very comfortable. Then, about five minutes in, my head began to ache, and my boyfriend began to complain of a headache as well. He gets scent headaches all the time (although I think some of it is his little way of complaining about scents) but I rarely do, so this was quite a disappointment for me. I'm unable to use this lotion and left it up north. I'll try it again next time I'm up but am not going to get my hopes up. Perhaps another LUSH scent would treat me better.

I received a sample of this, and I will definitely be going back and buying this. It smells exactly like the "vanilla in the mist" soap, but a bit creamier. It's very moisturizing, and a little really does go a long way with this stuff. Definitely recommend it.

My favourite bodylotion so far. Feels like whipped cream, absorbs fast, leaves skin lightly moisturized not greasy, smell is a light sweet still natural vanilla ...heavenly. I do not have dry skin so if you got really dry skin you might need something heavier. Its a little on the pricey side even for Lush but i will buy again.
