Skincare that smells good enough to eat

Have you ever opened a jar of moisturiser or a tub of face mask and thought, damn that smells good enough to eat? Please don’t tell me I’m the only one!

My obsession with sweet-smelling beauty products began with the famed Watermelon Lip Smacker, and my love for yummy-scented skin care has stuck around.

So get your noses ready for some sniffing, because these products will almost have you taking a spoon to them. Hey, I said almost.
