BEAUTY // Stocking fillers: Bath & Body Works Hand Cream

Tuesday 23 December 2014

Hello there!
Bath & Body Works is my new favourite place at Christmas. With more amazing smelling candles than could fit in my entire house, it is definitely the place to go if you just want to spend an afternoon squealing over how gorgeous a cinnamon roll candle would smell. I wanted to pick up a little something for my friends back home (and myself - duh) and I ended up picking up some of their hand creams. They are, do doubt, the most amazing smelling hand creams I have ever smelt. I could seriously eat them out of the tube!




First off, how cute is the packaging! I picked up Vanilla Bean Noel for myself and loved it. It smells super yummy, is really moisturizing and isn't too greasy for a cheap-ish moisturizer (at $5 a tube). When they look that lovely it isn't easy to not pick up every single flavour possible but I stuck to the Christmas editions which all smell delicious!


I also picked up this cute little gift bag for $1.50. I intend on cutting the front off and sticking it on my wall but I'm having a hard time actually bringing the scissors to it. It is THE cutest gift bag I have ever seen. One thing I do love is that they give free gift wrapping with all purchase. The little bag, ribbon and tag just gives that little bit extra and makes the final gift look super duper cute. I cannot wait to give them to my friends!

Have you ever shopped in Bath & Body Works? What are your favourite little gifts to buy and receive? Let me know!

    1. I just popped in for a candle and saw these. They are much more useful than a candle - mine never leaves my bag!

    1. I know right! I think I might get lots and ship them back - all I have had is friends and family asking why I didn't get them one!
