Holiday Gift Idea #3: The Body Shop Sparkler in Boudoir Pink
Everything from the beautiful old-school powder spritzer bottle to the delicately-scented baby-pink shimmer dust will just bring out the little girl in many a woman.
This is a less extravagant gift than the other 2 I've posted about previously, but in some sense, this is much more fun.
The Sparkler was a limited edition holiday-only release last year, and The Body Shop added a gold version when they brought it back this year. However, if you're giving this as a gift, my bet is really on the pink one.
This is a sheer and finely milled dust containing a lot of silica so that the glittery particles spread well over the skin. You will not get intense or noticeable color with this, so you can't use it as a pigment. You can also spray lightly over your hair after you slick everything down.
The sparkle will be more noticeable on dark hair.
The dispenser needs to be held a distance from the skin (half a foot) to dispense powder evenly, but it's easy to smooth out with your hands even if you don't get it on evenly.
The main con to this product is that the ultra-fine sparkles appear silver, not pink, so if you're expecting noticeably pink sparkle, you will be disappointed. Other than that, this is just a fun and girly gift with a cute re-usable bottle for dispensing your other powders or glitters!
