REVIEW : Urban Decay Sparkling Lickable Body Powder in "Marshmallow" [VINTAGE]

I'm actually not a fan of body powder. I rarely use fragrance too. Anyway, this thing's cute packaging captivated me. Moreover, it's on HUGE SALE when I bought it! My big sister and my online shop partner also bought this <3

Urban Decay Sparkling Lickable Body Powder in "Marshmallow" [VINTAGE]



Urban Decay Sparkling Lickable Body Powder in "Marshmallow" [VINTAGE] is a body powder with silver sparkles and scented just like marshmallow (hence its variant's name). This product range also has another scents, namely Cocoa and Honey. I just found out the the Cocoa scent was already discontinued, while Marshmallow and Honey are getting new package design, and sold at USD 20.00 per 15 grams. Me? I'm really lucky to get this at USD 6.00 for a box of 22 grams of product! YAY!!
Well, the new package also has lesser amount of product, huh?
Also, it has a faint sweet flavor when licked! Just like the name refers. I was like a fool licking my own hand after swatching it. Lol

The powder looks rough and clumpy, but actually it's really fine milled and soft.

At first I was afraid the scent would be too "sweet" (I'd prefer a fresh floral, citrus scent than sweet scents), but I prove myself wrong. The scent is sweet, but not overly sweet that it could make me dizzy just by smelling it. 

I also thought the scent won't be too noticeable, unlike perfumes, but I was wrong again. A friend of mine noticed the scent and thought I was wearing perfume. He said my scent reminds him of cakes.. lol

The sparkles/glitters isn't too obvious either, making it great to be worn not only on special occasions, but also daily. I wont wear it to univ, though.. lol..

OVERALL :
Pro(s) :
-Cute Packaging
-Nice scent
-Finely milled powder

Con(s) :
-Expensive
-It can be messy sometimes

Repurchase? Yeah, if it's on HUGE SALE again.. :D
