Well, in six more months. ;) But with this lotion, it is almost like it is here. I always get excited towards the holidays because I do almost always get one or two scented holiday creams. Last year I bought Twisted Peppermint and Vanilla Bean. Yum yum yum! The only reason I didn't give it a 10 is because of the price point. It is a great product! It truly smells like real Peppermint with a hint of vanilla; it is rich, creamy and can soften even the driest skins.

I love the IDEA of this product, and I used to stock up for almost the entire year at a time! But I started to notice that the amount of fragrance was not consistent. I always use different fragrances, so I don't buy the "getting used to it" thing. Sometimes I would put a bulb in and it would smell divine and was very strong, other times, absolutely nothing. I tried changing the outlets, exchanged the holders for new ones, changed out the bulbs. I couldn't figure out what it was. I purchased a few of these for a male friend of mine, and we were sitting in his living room just two feet away from the wallflower and could not smell it at all. This was day one that he put it in and he had never had these before. I ended up switching to Glade; sometimes they are hit and miss, too, but at least I can get them cheaper with sales and coupons! The BBW version has a ton of different fragrances to choose from but another thing I didn't like about it is that their is no dial to change the amount of fragrance that is released.

I am not sure what it is about the moisturizing soap, but I definitely prefer the gel with beads or the foaming version. The texture of the moisturizing and the appearance is not appealing to me. If it is a really good deal or on closeout, I might pick it up, but it isn't my favorite. The soap feels moisturizing, but I didn't really notice any moisturizing after I rinsed.

This is okay, but not for me. At first spritz, there is an overwhelming scent of alcohol. After this wears off an hour later, the light fragrance finally comes through. I would much prefer a good perfume or nice scented lotion to this. It doesn't last long and in my opinion, is a cheap product and not in a good way! This might be good for a girl in middle school or high school, but for me, it just isn't my thing.

This is absolutely the best home fragrance spray I have ever found, and trust me, I have tried a lot! From big box brands that never lasted, to Yankee Candle among others. These run around $5 and are sometimes on sale, or you can use a coupon. But to be honest, this is a must have, even if it isn't on sale. One can lasts me about 3-4 months. WOW. Plus, the fragrance smells true to the label and lasts for hours; all you need is one quick spray to scent a small to medium sized room. I just love these. :)

I think one of the things that BBW has going for them is the variety of scents; you just can't get all of these scents, and as true to the label as they are, at your local Target. I think they lather well, have a nice fragrance, and are a good gift option! For me personally, the price point is high so I don't normally purchase these. I usually get them as gifts from others. Even though Victoria's Secret and BBW are now owned by the same company, I find that the VS products appeal more to me than BBW.

I realy like the scents that come in this soap but it isn't a true anti-bac soap. I used to work at BBW and customer's really liked the fact that it made them "feel" clean even if it was a bit of false advertising. But it smells good and when I get bored, I know there are lots of scents to choose from!

I am a fragrance junkie, candles specifically. However, I do purchase scented oils and these by far are the "truest" to the actual scent mentioned in the name. Some fragrance oils smell off and not anything like you might expect; these are not one of those. I usually stock up around the holidays, at the semi-annual sales, BBW outlets, or when I have a coupon. The only reason I didn't give it a 10 is because of the price point; I would like to see the price come down a little bit, but they are still cheaper than candles. The scent is true, intense, and as one reviewer stated, these are safer around children than a candle would be. If you love scented oils, this is "the one."

I absolutely love the foaming soap from Bath and Body Works. The smells are insanely good, it cleanses well and foams nicely. However, the prices at BBW are getting higher and higher. I remember when the Body Cream was $10.00. I think it is $12.50 now, but it is always on "sale" which makes people feel like they are getting a deal. That always bothers me. I usually buy these at the BBW outlets where I can get them for around $2 or $2.50 a piece, which I think is much more reasonable. The other issue I have with this item is that they call it "anti-bacterial." There really isn't enough Triclosan in it to be considered a true anti-bac soap. Just take a look at the back of a Dial bottle. I sort of feel like they use a lot of marketing gimmicks which makes me lose faith in their brand. However, all and all, it is a good soap and I love them and I know most women do, too. :)

It has been years since I have used this product, and now I can remember why! As far as cream hair remover goes, it isn't the best. On the plus side, the odor is not as strong as some other products. On the negative side, the product is runny and those of us who use cream hair removal products, you know one of the keys is to apply a thick layer of cream. It makes it difficult when the product is so thin. The lotion that comes with it tends to irritate my skin. I ended up using it as hand lotion instead. I usually put Vaseline on the area to moisturize, because my skin is made more sensitive after the process. I normally use the Nair facial hair remover, but I went into my local Target and they didn't have the normal one I buy; instead they had Nair Brazilian Clay facial cream. It was about .5 oz for around $5!! I don't have a lot of hair at all. In fact, I have had most of it lasered off, but I like applying my makeup to a "clean slate." It did remove the hair, but if you have thick or coarse hair I don't think it would be effective.
