Bath and Body Works Haul 4.11.13

It has been ages since I've been in Bath and Body Works and the other I just happened to have the opportunity to go in! I went to the mall just to get dinner but ended up getting a haircut and going to BBW as well!


I really just wanted candles because I didn't go through all my Winter candles and I just wanted to save them and get some Spring/Summer scents. Well, obviously I ended up with way more than just candles. The only thing is I wished I waited because I think I got an email today saying buy one get one for the 3 wick candles, I'm not sure.


Anyways, on to the good stuff!

So lets do the candles first! I got two small candles at $10 each. I picked up Tiki Beach and Beach Cabana. What I found going through all the candles is I really hate flowery smells, and I even smelled Market Peach and wasn't impressed. Sadly I think it is because I enjoy the fabricated/fake smell we think things smell like instead of their actual smells. But for me, the floral and spring smells were just too much.The coconut ones which I hoped I'd love smelled not like the fake coconut I've grown to love.


Tiki Beach and Beach Cabana are so nice and not too strong that they give you a headache. Tiki Beach - a scent as warm as sunrays - a luxurious blend of toasted coconut, vanilla musk, orchids, and resort glamour. Beach Cabana - The air under a beach cabana is filled with fragrant, sweet jasmine, orange blossom, and a hint of fluffy white towels.

On the right in the aqua is the True Blue Spa Apricot and White Tea face scrub. I'm very cautious when it comes to skin care because it seems like if I pick the wrong product my face will act violently against it. I've had some dry patches, particularly between my eyebrows and on my nose and I knew it was time to grab a scrub when deep moisturizing wasn't working. I certainly think this had made a difference, even if I've only used it twice.

It smells incredible and the granules in the scrub are pretty average and honestly as long as you are gentle they won't really be too harsh.


Then along with the need for a face scrub, I definitely needed a body scrub. The winter was not kind to my skin so I needed something to take the dead skin away. This is part of a limited edition collection of tropical scents. There are three scents from this escape collection. Aruba Coconut, Rio Rumberry and Mali Mango all of which sound pretty tasty. I got the Aruba Coconut which is "an exotic blend of juicy Thai mango, Fuji Apple and white nectarine. The scent isn't too too strong but honestly I am in love and I might have to go back and get some more. I wasn't crazy about the Mali Mango but that's because I'm not huge on citrus. The scrub is $14.


I love me some pedicures. I don't get them too much because they can add up in price but I thought I could take care of my feetsies with some really nice foot cream. I've always have really dry skin there, especially because of being a dancer but this is a god send. Honestly, the only reason I picked this up was because it was buy two get one free. So I just randomly picked this up and I am so glad I did.

This is the Super Rich Foot Cream in shea butter. On its' own it is $15 dollars but worth every single penny. There are 4 fluid ounces in this one but here's a hint - you can buy the spa size for $5 more and get double the product at 8 fluid ounces. I wish I had known that!


Finally, is the True Blue Spa Super Rich Body Cream in Vanilla Almond - those are two of my favorite scents and this is just perfect for my skin to recover and get warm weather ready.

The True Blue Spa line is an awesome part of Bath and Body Works and it has been around for a long time. They have a beach spray for hair that I might want to grab. I feel another trip to BBW coming on!


Have you guys gotten anything from BBW? Any good body care products? Let me know in the comments!
