Not that I need any more bath products, but the recent amazing Bath & Body Works sale proved irresistible. I managed not to go too crazy and got all of this, with the sale and a coupon, for around $30!
I was apparently in the mood for summery scents, coconut oil soaked beaches, wildflowers and Coney Island. I grabbed one of their huge 3 wick candles in Summer Boardwalk, which sounded intriguingly nostalgic. I went for the fragrance mist and shower gel in Wild Honeysuckle. It just reminds me of walks in the woods, my best friend Angie showing us how to separate the honeysuckle flowers and find the sweetness with our tongues. Her unkempt halo of frizzy curls, wide smiling cheeks dusted with freckles, those memories all smell like Wild Honeysuckle to me.
I decided not to get any lotions, I’m extremely overstocked. So I went a little nuts on shower gels instead. These work just as well for bubble baths and bubble baths happen to be one of my most important luxuries. Don’t judge me, okay! A life without small luxuries is a sad thing indeed. I got Warm Vanilla Sugar, which is one of my favorite scents from BBW. Then I veered back to my summer theme with several new scents I haven’t tried! Wild Citrus Sunflower just sounded so sunny and bright I couldn’t resist. Then I apparently was having a coconut craving, I got Coconut Vanilla, Exotic Coconut AND Aruba Coconut. In my defense, Aruba Coconut is a divine shade of shocking blue which rendered me senseless and unable to resist.
Lastly I picked up two five-packs of these little PocketBac Sanitizers- I got the Sweet Shop and Hawaii collections. The girls absolutely love these to take to school in their backpacks, and it makes me happy to keep a few of the nasty school germs away!
I could have gone on buying candles and trying new scents for days, but I managed to be a good girl and stop there. If anyone needs me I’ll be in my bubbly bath with a good book clutched in my pruny little fingers!
Woot! Great deal!!! I love BBW, I can never have enough of their foaming hand soaps! I have quite the stash in my closet 😉
Hehe! I always think it’s comforting to have a nice stash of bath and beauty products. Yes I am a huge dork. 🙂
I was just about to buy some of these! They have so many new scents its crazy! Nice haul!!
You have to tell me which ones you get! And I know. I want basically allll the candles, the scents sound amazing.
The smell of coconuts reminds me of summer beaches and if I close my eyes I am bback in my 20s since back then it all had the coconut smell (and we didnt know what sunscreen was!) I think the coconut blue looks interesting.
Haha! That is back in the day like my mom tells me when they’d use Crisco to tan.
I’d love to try the Aruba Coconut body wash. I also have a small stash of B&BW goodies and love it all.
I love to come in the house and it all smells so nice–makes it home
