Glow by Lady E

  I ’ve always loved Bath & Body Works. The colors, the themes, the storytelling… it’s the kind of place that makes you feel like a little girl again, especially with the Disney Princess collection.

There’s a reason why consumers vote Bath and Body Works lotions as the best in its category over and over. I had very little expectations with this lotion just because I didn’t think of it as something special. I was totally wrong! This lotion works well with my uber dry skin. I also like the fact that it smells nice but not overwhelming. The scent lingers until around noon. It lasts that long because I layer it with the same body wash. This is non-sticky and is absorbed by my skin immediately. At first I was afraid that it would feel sticky because it has a thick consistency. I’m glad it’s not like that. I have other variants and I can’t wait to use them!

I love the scent of this one! It reminds me of my VS shower gel. It has a hint of berries. My only problem with this is it makes my hands dry and rough. The bottle also leaks a little. I hope that does not happen with the Japanese Cherry Blossom PocketBac as I put that in purse.  It will be a disaster if that happens!

I was really looking forward to this hand gel from Bath and Body Works just because I am a sucker for cherry blossoms. I thought this would have a mild scent but it was too overwhelming! I just finished the last two bottles of my hand sanitizers so I decided to replace the one in my bag with this. Good thing I use this when I’m not at home as I’m afraid the scent might be too strong for my baby. I can’t describe the scent but it has too powerful notes in it that I feel they all clash. I think this will last me a long time as I will only put a tiny amount every time I use this. I won’t repurchase this scent but I will definitely purchase more of these cute sanitizers!

This is the second bottle of body wash from my Bath and Body Works haul. If you can remember, I didn’t like the first one.  You’ll be able to find that review in the archives if you haven’t read that yet. I like this one. It smells sweet, too sweet in fact but I like it. It reminds me of my Victoria’s Secret Body Wash. I am not a huge fan of sweet scents but I guess I got used to it because of my VS stash. But my tolerance for sweet scents will remain in the bath department. I still go for citrusy scents when it comes to perfume. Anyway, what I really like about this is I only need a small amount to make a good lather. It’s super tipid ! I’ve been wondering why MB’s bottle still had a lot of product left even after more than 2 weeks of usage. Now I know why. I also like the fact that the product itself does not feel/look cheap. There are a few body washes out there that are too thick or feel cheap, like they were produced in a hurry so the texture and consistency are...

I took advantage of the Bath and Body Works sale and got a few things. This is one of them: This is Cotton Blossom shower gel. I think this is the first time I’m trying BBW shower gels. Unfortunately, I only used this once. I don’t like the smell. It smells nice, don’t get me wrong but it reminds me of Sampaguitas. I don’t know the English word for it. Google translate gives me tulips. They are not tulips. They are little white flowers that are strung together to make a lei and is usually offered to images/statues of Christ, Mary and other saints. I don’t like the smell of said flower so I gave this to MB. At least I’m not with him for several hours during the day and by the time he gets home the scent would have faded. The scent stays a bit on the skin but it’s gone once you sweat. It says on the label that it moisturizes. I will test that out on my next bottle but it didn’t leave my skin dry so I have my hopes up. I will finish my VS shower gel first before I move on to the ...

Bath and Body Works is on mega sale. I got a few things. I wanted to buy the sanitizers here but they cost Php100 at Landmark and Php150 at PCX! They only cost a dollar each in the US! The lotions and body wash on the other hand cost Php600+. Here’s a breakdown: I also got these pouches because I’m a pouch addict! Now I think my lotion stash will last me the whole year and I hope the rest will last me until the next sale.
