Love it!- 11.21.09
So I wanted to get something for myself as a birthday present and I chose this because it was relatively cheap and I've heard good things about Philosophy. This was my first time using this brand and let me say I will be a loyal customer from now on! I was a little skeptical about whether or not I would like smelling like chocolate and marshmallows. But the scent is really warm and soothing. The shampoo, body wash, bubble bath, leaves my hair and skin super soft and it isn't drying at all. The lotion is great too, it leaves your skin soft but I think it would be better suited for someone in a warmer climate. I live in a colder area and the lotion isn't as moisturizing as I would like. I also LOVE the lip gloss! It tastes and smells great! I highly recommend this product!

Interesting...- 11.20.09
Quick Take: yummy scented
Well, this was my very first ever purchase from Philosophy and I have to say this was an interesting experience. I say that because I only bought this because I have been eyeing this for a while and what really pushed me was reading all of the rave reviews. With that said I was actually excited and had high expectations for this. Well, firstly, the lipgloss was faboulus! It left a nice shimmery, milky sheen to your lips and the smell made me just want to lick it off my lips off (which i eventually did ;P). Second, I have to say I was disappointed in both the lotion and the body wash. Like everyone said, the lotion does smell more like hot chocolate with a whipped topping or something but I dont know of its just me but after I applied it to my hands it only left my hands smelling like chemicals..it was disgusting but like I said I dont know if its just me. Finally, the body wash was a little disappointing in that, yes, in the shower it smelled fanatastic...but that was it. The scent didn't linger or last at all after applied. I see this as only a fun little experience you want to have because of the scent but thats it. But afterall, this is my first Philosophy product so I do lck experience with this stuff. I doubt this experience wil discourage me from purchasing anymore but I will be a bit more wary towards my purchases.

Yummy!- 11.19.09
Quick Take: soooo delectable!, yummy-smelling!, great for the holidays!
I LOVE the marsmallow lipgloss. It's not as glittery as the Melon Daiquiri, but it's still shiny and soooo yummy-smelling!
I haven't tried the shower gel, so yeah, I can't say much about it yet.
The lotion is sooooo yummy smelling! If it's edible, I would eat it! XD It's not an overpowering smell, but just right!...for me.

Great Gift!- 11.19.09
Quick Take: affordable, convenient gift
I bought this as a gift to a friend, since we were going to be staying overnight at her house. It came with a body wash, lotion and lip balm, and since everyone loves Philosophy products, it was perfect. It was also priced affordably. Excellent Buy!

bother products smell great, but lotion is not great for dry skin- i had to use it multiple times to make my skin feel less dry. i like the hot cocoa more as a shampoo cuz u can really smell it in your hair

Smores 2.0 - new and improved- 11.17.09
Last year Sephora offered a similar pack, but instead of marshmallow lip gloss, the set featured smores. As much as I love the smores scent, I gotta say that the marshmallow lip gloss is far better! This is a wonderful holiday gift - or if your friend has a b-day in December. What a fragrant way to get ready for the holiday season! The shower gel is your typical Philosophy sudsy phenomenon and smells just like hot cocoa. And the marshmallow scent is to die for. Wonderfully yummy!

Nice set- 11.14.09
I purchased 2 of these--one to give as a Christmas gift, and one for myself. The body wash and body cream smell delicious. I love the body souffle cream. It really does literally melt into your skin, making it so soft and smooth. The lip shine tastes so good, and leaves just a hint of shimmer on the lips. The packaging is cute, too. My daughter uses the "house" for her miniature dolls! Philosophy products never disappoint!

~Ahhh..."The Winter Escape" Philosophy~- 11.14.09
Quick Take: great gift, yummy treat, excellent set, moisturizing
I Love Philosophy, especially the Gift Sets! Each Winter, It's a Must! The fragrances are Fun & Memorable.
Who wouldn't love an inviting Hot Cocoa w/ a Peppermint stick in the Winter? Plus an extra topping of Marsh-mellows!
Everything is good for your skin. You smell & feel delicious... The Marsh-mellow lip gloss is moisturizing, a hint of snowflakes for your lips. A light yummy flavor.
A Fun Winter Treat, and a Great Thoughtful Holiday Gift to Give!

It's Christmas- 11.11.09
I live 3 hours away from Sephora and just happened to get the catalog before we went on our Chicago trip. I'm sooo glad I got this I love it so much. I wish I would have gotten more and can't wait to get more. The shower gel is creamy and smells so good. The gloss and lotion smell amazing and moisturize great too.

No Regrets!- 11.09.09
Quick Take: sinfully sweet smelling!
I drove to the Sephora over 25 miles away from me to get this product! All three smell and feel better than I could have imagined. Soon, I'll be driving out to get another set or two to last me til next year! Can I rate this above 5 stars? No? Well 4 then!

Delicious!- 11.08.09
Quick Take: yummy, delicious, decadent
When I saw this on the website I ran (ok, drove really fast) to my Sephora store. It is so fantastic I should have purchased a few more for Christmas gifts. In fact, I think I will do that asap. Philosophy has never disappointed with their products and this Winter Escape set is fantastic! The lip gloss is not too sticky and my lips feel scrumptous. The Marshmallow Cream lotion absorbs quickly and the scent is just right. Get it before it's gone!

Yummy!- 11.06.09
Quick Take: perfect for a christmas gift, perfect for a indulgence for yourself
The shower gel smell wonderful. I have used the marshmallow lotion before in the Warm by the Fire kit (last years set and loved it then!) And the lip glosses- well I can't say enough good things about them. Smell wonderful, keeps my lips soft and smooth and is not too sticky!
