Yum.. Jaqua Raspberry Buttercream Collection
I’ve come a long way since using Bath and Body Works Sun-Ripened Raspberry products in high school. Was it just be or were all the girls walking around smelling delicious and sweet (almost too sweet!) in this popular scent? I’ve since retired Sun-Ripened Raspberry from my repertoire but now, I think I’ve found a new raspberry-scented product worthy of adding back into my day-to-day.
Jaqua Raspberry Buttercream collection is delicious, and yes it’s sweet, but it’s by far a more grown up scent for my near 30-year-old self. It really smells like fresh raspberries, as if you were eating them whole – with the seeds and everything! The Raspberry Buttercream Frosting Hand Creme that I have is a little greasy for my liking, but it absorbs well and is a great buy for $8. This is the first time I’ve used Jaqua products and I’d actually like to try some more of their delicious goodies – Pink Grapefruit anyone? That sounds so delicious and refreshing!
Raspberry Buttercream Collection has a full suite of body products, from Lip Whip, a fun lip gloss with vitamins A and E, to Shower Creme. Lather yourself up with the shower creme before applying the Body Butter and smell like a fresh raspberry garden all day long!
Nab yourself some of Jaqua’s Raspberry Buttercream collection at Ulta, Bath & Body Works Flagships, bathandbodyworks.com, and other fine beauty retailers and let me know what you think!

oh my god! I want the hand cream too! I reviewed the shower gel and I’m working on reviewing the lip whip and it’s insanely good! Your review is spot on, I agree it’s very sweet but also grown up! It has an underlay of an exotic perfume. Fruity on one hand, sweet on the other, with a unique underlay!
interesting stuff!

Hey Muse!
I can’t wait to read your lip whip review! It sounds so yummy and fun! I like the raspberry smell, but have you tried any of the other scents before?

Hey lovie!
It’s yums! I’ve tried several scents from them before but never any of the lip items. Just shower gels. I have a pina colada shower syrup from last year that’s so gorgeous. And I have one of the kits which has few scents. All there stuff is really divine and well worth splurging out for
I particularly love it when BBW has th semi annual and they go on sale hehe!
Actually I’m not sure of BBW is still carrying Jaqua! Must check

Hi Muse!
I believe Jaqua is sold at BBW and I completely forgot about the sales over there! You’re right, it would be a perfect time for me to pick up a few goodies.
The Pina Colada sounds yummy, I want to try it. If I can’t go on vacation then I can certainly bring the islands to me, right??

Hi Sarah,
Thanks so much for stopping by! Definitely try their lip whip – I love all lip products so I think I’m going to give this one a test drive as well
