LOVE THIS!
"I was skeptical about the fragrance at first but the more I tried it, the more I loved it! It's really clean and fresh and pretty, and the shimmer looks really pretty on! It's great for a gift too. I love that this fragrance is different."

Love This!
"I love this new scent! I love shimmer! Mix it together and I'm in heaven (but let's not get Carried Away!)"
"The Scent is not... it smells like soured Raspberry Yogurt to me. Now since This Review is not solely based upon the Fragrance itself, i will say that i do like the Shimmer/Lotion Option. I like being able to choose how much shimmer i want, just a hint or all out that is nice :).
The Gel it's self is actually kind of Sticky so i do like mixing the product with lotion... however in my experience the pump gets clogged with Shimmer...
In all honesty i'd rather lotion and spray on some shimmer... but this is a nice way to get both for a lower price....
( i Review the actual product itself based on another Scent JCB)"

LOVE THIS PRODUCT
"I bought this product this past weekend based on a salesperson's suggestion and it is awesome!! Love the shimmer to it and I love that you can control it! Love the new Carried Away scent, too!!! It was a great perk me up during this very long, cold, snowy winter!! I am so ready for spring and this helped a lot!!! Buy it!! It is fun!!!"
"I like the idea of choosing your own shimmer. For me personally just a little shimmer is best nice during the spring and summer. The product is a little sticky on the sparkle side so be aware of that otherwise a nice product."

AWESOME!
"THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT! I LIKE I CAN ADJUST THE SHIMMER. I LOVE THIS SCENT. IT IS STRONGER THAN SOME OF THE OTHER NEW SCENTS SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO LAYER AS MUCH AND DOES LAST ALL DAY! HOPE DARK KISS IS GOING TO BE AVAILABLE IN THE DIAL-A-SHIMMER THAT IS MY OTHER FAVORITE! THANKS BBW!"
"I might as well live at B&BW as I go to that store enough! At least for now, they still have SOME fragrances I enjoy but those are dwindling. This time I went to get a last minute Valentine's gift for a cousin of mine who needs cheering up.
Anyway, the "sour milk scent" that I am personally describing about this product line is not from just smelling this product from the bottle. I never judge a fragrance just by smelling the bottles only. It's from sampling it and putting it on.
I thought I was done trying this scent but I checked out this lotion on a whim. Sorry, but what I have to say is negative. I don't like this because of the description above.
Furthermore, I think wearing anything shimmery in the winter is a waste of time. And where I live, winter goes on for quite a while yet.
I don't think shimmer looks good on very pale skin (I get very white in the winter). Also, in the winter (where I live). I have so many clothes on, you wouldn't see shimmer if you were looking for it.
In the summer, shimmer is fun and sexy. It looks good on top of a tan (however dark you wish to be). And it looks great while wearing summer clothes!
I wish this "dial a shimmer" came in other products...products that I like. I would definitely buy this in my favorite summer fragrance. But, not in a million years, would I buy ANYTHING called "Carried Away".
I'm sorry, but it's vile. Not in the bottle, but on.
On a happy note, I found something great for my cousin!"

A Good Product
"I absolutley love the scent ''Carried Away''. It smells great, but I would only recommend it to anyone like myself who doesn't mind a strong scent. Alot of people don't like stronger scents, and if that's you than this isn't the scent for you.
As far as the ''Dial-A-Shimmer'', the shimmer side is alittle sticky, and feels like oil is on your body. Therefor I don't recommed this product, but do recommend ''Carried Away''."
"I like a few other reviewers thinks this smells like sweet pea or maybe a little like the nightblooming jasmine. This scent is not for me. I can't stand the floral type scents. I actually have both sweet pea & nightblooming jasmine in mists at home I am just edging to get rid of. I just need to purchase apricot vanilla, berry vanilla & either coconut vanilla or the soon to be coming out cherry vanilla to replace the ones I am getting rid of.
"I love this idea! it seems like all the shimmer lotions and sprays I try either have too much sparkle or not enough. with this, I can adjust exactly how much I want. this fragrance isn't my favorite, but it's not bad; I hope they come out with this form in other fragrances though"
"This is not a fragrance for me, sadly. I was excited to try the new scent, since the packaging was so pretty, but this is not very complex, flirty or feminine. I think this would be better suited for someone who is just getting into fragrance, someone young, as this reminds me of Sweet Pea, and I associate that with much younger ladies. Oh well, Country Chic sounds promising, so I will have to wait for that to splurge on some new products."
"This product isn't for me, but it's for a teenager. I hope this form comes out in "Secret Wonderland." That would be more appealing. "Carried Away" is just a terrible fragrance. I'm sorry, BBW."
