Maui Babe Shimmer After Sun Formula

I got this for a summer shimmer lotion. It has a pleasant smell that doesn't stay which I like because I like to use body spray. I love that it absorbs fast and doesn't feel sticky especially with summer weather. It does have the iridecent, really fine glitter. I love that it isn't to much and you can build up the shimmer by adding another layer. This will definitely be my go to summer lotion for the shimmer and the after sun care.

Pros: it works I came to rebuy and was surprised it has such low reviews. While the negative reviews aren't wrong, it's worth it. I'm in the pool, ocean and sun a lot in the summer. This product consistently keeps me from peeling. I exfoliate, but still struggled with flaky peeling skin when I ran out. I got another bottle and applied to the peeling the skin (and whole body) before bed and woke up super hydrated. No more peeling. No need to reapply multiple times a day. I enjoy the glitter but it's true that it gets everywhere. I just found some on my cars armrest. If you don't like the glitter, the non glitter one works well too. Cons: dont love how difficult it is to apply. Maybe i use too much but its hard to rub in. Something I rebuy all summer long.

I picked this up when my local ulta was out of stock of the regular formula. For a higher cost, this one covers your clothes in glitter that sheds. So annoying. It would be better if it was a highlighter like shimmer but I'm over this chunky glitter. It looks cheap. Can't use this before bed either. Will be returning.

It has a light scent that smells like plain lotion. Same thing as the non glitter formula. I use this right after a day at the beach and my skin always feels hydrated and it helpsy skin cool down a little faster. The photo on the website doesn't show the glitter, but it's not like a highlight shimmer, it's more of a glitter that is very fine. It's not too much in my opinion, but I love sparkles lol.

I was disappointed that it had leaked in the shipping bag. They taped the part of the lid that pops up but it came unscrewed so it leaked everywhere. I was hoping for something similar to the old Hawaiian tropic after sun lotion with shimmer. This smells like either an OG Vaseline or older Jergens lotion, can't place the smell. Not bad but wasn't what I was expecting. Seems to moisturize, but I was hoping for more luminous shimmer rather than small glitter pieces. I've never used the other browing products so I'm not sure how the scent compares. Doubt I will keep, since I could get the same thing from a bottle of Jergens.
