Advantages: Nice cocoa butter smell

Disadvantages: Shimmer seems a bit erratic - nice in some areas but poor in others

As a big fan of the Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula in general, I liked the idea of having a body lotion with a hint of shimmer in it for special occasions. This seemed like a great idea, especially as I love using the original body lotion (see previous review for more details on that).

***The Body Gloss***
Like the original body lotion, this is yellow, but the addition of the gloss makes it a lot more shimmery. It is pretty easy to rub into the skin, although the shimmer wasn't immediately obvious after I had done so. It is definitely there though as my fingers had a lot of glittery residue on them after applying it! As with the original, you can smell the cocoa butter but the smell isn't quite as intense.

***The Results***
Once it had fully soaked in, there was quite a good hint of glitter. It was far more obvious in some areas than others, and on some areas it was almost invisible even under good lighting. This gave quite a strange effect as it looked like I had only applied glitter to random small areas, when in fact I had applied it quite liberally across my entire shoulders, chest and the tops of my arms. I would advise applying it more subtly than I did as you are quite likely to end up with vast patches of glitter if you are unlucky.

Summary: I won't buy this one again
