doomsday_disco Report post Posted December 2, 2025 In dramatic contrast to the soft innocence of Snow White and the dew-kissed freshness of her sister, Rose Red, this is a blood red, voluptuous rose, velvet-petaled, at the height of bloom. Haughty and imperious, vain, yet incomparably lovely to the eye, but thick with thorns of jealousy, pride and hatred. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doomsday_disco Report post Posted 4 hours ago This smells like Peacock Queen, which is to say that it is a voluptuous, velvety, dark red rose with prickly thorns. I've tried many a lotion from the Lab at this point, and I'd say this is one of the ones with the best throw that I've tried, but that may just be because Peacock Queen is a haughty girl, y'know? Regarding the texture (I'm copying this from my initial lotion review):This is a thick lotion. It's not as thick as Epically Epic's whipped body butters (which they no longer make ), Blood Moon Botanica's body butters, or Strawberry Boo's frosting-like body butters, nor is it thin and liquidy like Paintbox Soapworks' lotions or Moonalisa's potion lotions or avocado butters. I haven't had one in a while, but I would say the thickness is probably most comparable to Haus of Gloi's pumpkin butters, but this might even be thicker than that, and it is somewhat stickier. I like that this is on the thicker side, because I live in the desert and have very dry skin. I find that this doesn't take long to sink in (but again -- I have very dry skin, so you may not have the same experience). I'm glad that the Lab released this lotion since my bottle of Peacock Queen bath oil is long gone. I look forward to pairing it with lots of my rose scents!
