Caramel Apples for Braces: BBW Caramel Apple Deep Cleansing Anti-Bacterial Hand Soap!

It's not technically, mine, but it's in the house (good enough!). Today, my mother came hope with a bag filled to the brim with Bath and Body Works products. Half of these items were luscious anti-bacterial hand soaps, and the rest were for her personal use:( . But I forgive her (:P), because the succulent scent of the Caramel Apple Hand Soap made up for her "selfishness".


PRICE: Currently $2.75 for 237ml


The Claim:This powerful germ-killing hand soap is enriched with an exclusive moisturizing blend to help hydrate and soften skin as powerful ingredients leave dirty hands clean and lightly scented with a mouthwatering blend of golden apple and creamy caramel.


The Verdict: This hand soap really does get the job done. Hands are left clean and delicately scented. I'm not really seeing a huge difference in the hydration levels of my hands, but slathering on some BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar Hand Cream sure does the trick! The scent is mouth-watering: vanilla-y cinnamon and tart apples. Ah..So good:)


I'm truly very thankful for this product. I got braces in June, and caramel apples must be avoided at all costs. It's rather hard to resist their goodness, so luckily this product was launched. It's almost..better than real ones. Oh, what am I kidding! Nothing tops the chewy caramel and  sour taste of crisp green apples. But this is the closest zero calorie item to them.


I'm in a car, so I really must end this post and skip the PROS and CONS. Apologies, reader. You will also get images later, I have yet to take pictures of the hand soap.

XOXO,
Gabby

Warm Vanilla Sugar: Lusciousness in a Bottle:)


Warm Vanilla Sugar® Shea Cashmere Hand Cream - Signature Collection - Bath & Body WorksWarm Vanilla Sugar® Shea Cashmere Hand Cream - Signature Collection - Bath & Body Works
After trying one of my friend's hand cream from Bath and Body Works, I  just knew I had to get myself one--or two. These hand creams were the thickest, creamiest, and most luxurious ones on the market! She owned the new scent, "Carried Away", and it positively divine. I was tempted to pick one up with its gorgeous floral packaging, but Warm Vanilla Sugar was just calling my name with its delectable vanilla aromas. I am so glad I got to pick up one! It's scent always reminds me of winter, and cozying up by the fire. I think that vanilla smells amazing and this hand cream just made it even better! You pick up tons of vanilla, but swirled into it are a few woody aromas. I honestly have no clue wahat "basmati rice water" is, but I sure know that I don't pick up any in this hand cream. Okay, back to the texture! This hand cream takes your hands to Cloud 9! You know those thick and rich Betty Crocker frostings? Well this hand cream is literally just that for your hands! It's wonderful! And oh, duh! You're hands are left super smooth. THe bottle looks really small, but truly, you only need a tiny dot to give your hands deep hydration.



Price: $10.00 for 2.5oz of LUSCIOUSNESS:)
