Spotted at Walmart: Seasonal bodycology Fragrances for Fall

9:31 AM

 
 
 
 
I ran into Walmart to grab some Halloween candy for my office desk, and thought I'd run over by the clearance section to see if there were any goodies.  I don't know how much of a "sale" or "clearance" this is, but bodycology had some new seasonal fragrances available that I had not seen before.  The two that really popped out to me were Sugared Vanilla Bean and Spiced Caramel Cider  and Sugared Candy Apple.  I wish I had picked these up - I absolutely love Bath and Body Work's fall fragrances, especially last year's Cozy Autumn Vanilla and Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin.  Might be an inexpensive alternative?
 
Have you seen these?  Tried them?  I wonder what their staying power is?

Bath & Body Works Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin - It's time for Fall!

8:38 AM


It's that time of year again - Fall!  I don't know if it's because the temperature has dropped dramatically by approximately 30 degrees, or just the fact that I've had my fill of summer fun, but I am ready for fall.  I knew it was close to that time because Bath and Body Works has put up their Halloween and autumn fragrances online, and in stores.  I love all the jack-o-lanterns and woodland-esque animals.  I actually did pick up the Wicked Spiced Pumpkin travel size body lotion, which smells absolutely delicious!  This is much warmer, and more vanilla than the other pumpkin fragrances in the past, and to me is a really nice change from all the floral fragrances of the summer.  I was disappointed to find out it only comes in the travel size, because I would have snatched up several in a full size!  But, at $5 a piece, it's not a bad addition to my purse.



My absolute favorite is Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin.  This is a sweeter, and a bit fruitier than the Wicked Spiced Pumpkin.  I look forward to this scent every fall! 

Here's where I need your help - have any of you heard that they aren't carrying this in the store?  I went in to pick some up this past weekend, and the sales associated to me that they are no longer making the body lotion - only the candles, and the shower gel (pictured below).  Now, I am a bit hesitant to believe this, simply because when I search on the Bath and Body Works website, I find the entire gamut of SCP products, including scrubs, candles, shower gels and lotions/creams.  Maybe they are only going to carry this online, which I would be sorely disappointed in!  So, I am asking you fell readers - let me know if you've seen this in your local BBW - I'd love to know!  I keep checking out mine, but so far, nothin'! 

What do you look forward to for fall?  For me, it's all about the pumpkins - Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin and a Pumpkin Spiced Latte for me! :)

A bath and body birthday...

8:12 AM

Someone was looking at my birthday list when they picked out presents this year! Not only did I receive lots of goodies in the makeup department (pics and posts to follow), but I also got a few things for the bath and body.

First, to satisfy my need for everything pumpkin in the fall (lattes, food...), my mom got me the Philosophy 3 in 1 in Pumpkin Spice Muffin and my grandmother got me the matching lipgloss. Now, I will be the first to admit that sometimes the spice and pumpkiny scented bath items don't quite get the fragrance correct, but this one hits the nail on the head. When you open the bottle, it smells like a loaf of pumpkin bread is baking. There is nothing artificial about the fragrance - just pure spices and pumpkin! As the Philosophy states:

pumpkin spice muffin
high foaming shampoo, shower gel & bubble bath

whoever thought a bath or shower couldn't possibly smell absolutely delicious, will be amazed at philosophy's pumpkin spice muffin shampoo, shower gel and bubble bath. the ultra-rich formula cleanses skin and leaves it feeling soft and hydrated. not only is the warm, gooey smell of pumpkin spice muffin appealing to the senses, according to scientific research, this aroma has been found to arouse men and women. it's a smell that's so irresistible, you'll lather, rinse and definitely want to repeat!

you need this product if...
you are a true multi-tasker
you love a rich, foaming lather
you want a calorie free way to indulge in a pumpkin spice muffin
you enjoy fun, delicious smells that won't linger when your bath or shower is over

You can purchase it here.


Secondly, my grandmother also got me the lotion from the new Bath and Body Works True Blue Spa Shea Cashmere collection. Talk about wrapping yourself in something warm and cozy. The smell is like a sugary vanilla - it almost reminds me of vanilla icing. It is a rich and emollient lotion, but it doesn't leave behind any greasy residue. My skin is absolutely loving this, and I think it will be perfect for winter when it gets cold and dry. There are tons of other things in this collection, including bath gels, hand cream, foot cream, etc. These are just fantastic too!!
