Bath & Body Works UK.

Unfortunately before you go getting too excited, no Bath & Body Works isn't shipping to the UK. But I've come across a site where you can pick B&BW things up from.

www.bathandbodyshop.co.uk

Before you check them out, there is always this to remember as to why the prices differ a fair amount than if you were to purchase them in the US:

'We have a network of shoppers in the USA so we can bring this exclusive range to the UK. We stock a large quanitity of the favourite fragranced bath and body lines so if there is something you do not see let us know and we can get it in for you within 2 weeks just drop us a line'.

I only picked up a few things for now. I really want to try the Slatkin candles soon though.


Winter Candy Apple, Apple Wreath, Paradise Coconut, Caribbean Escape, Warm Vanilla Sugar.


Vanilla Berry Sorbet, Fresh Picked Strawberries, I Love Cookie Dough, Sugar Lemon Fizz, I Love Cake Frosting.



I also picked up the bottle holder so I can attach it to my key chain for work.

These 'PocketBac's are fab, I've only tried one before (Caramel Apple) and it got me hooked. I love all the ones I picked out but my favourites have to be I Love Cookie Dough and Paradise Coconut.

Not only do they smell amazing, they leave my hands feeling clean but without drying them out. I have a bit of cleaning OCD at work, everything is touched by everyone else so I like to keep my hands clean. These are perfect for that and with things like Carex alcoholic hand gel, I used to find they'd bring out my dermatitis.

Delivery was super speedy for this. I ordered early evening Monday, it was dispatched on Tuesday and arrived with signed for delivery on Wednesday. No faults to report!

I'm super happy with this, especially as it was my first time ordering.

Definitely recommend if you want to try B&BW but don't have any plans to venture across the pond. They have most of the body products, not just the PocketBac's.

They also carry some other brands - Bomb Cosmetics, Burts Bees, Jelly Belly, Lipsmacker, NYX and Victoria Secret.

Now the only problem I have is deciding which ones to use next!

    1. It's a shame really, I should have bought the Slatkin candles they had before Christmas, I love sweet rich scents. Now they have all these Summery ones, meh. I guess I'll save for when they bring out the F/W ones. :P

      I definitely want to try more, much as I love Lush I only like one of their body lotions so I should invest in some of these I think.

  3. Thanks to you, I also love this company :-) I did have probs with my first order, items missing then not having them in stock etc. However I recieved an response from them fast and a replacement item was sent within a couple of days. Good customer service as they sorted my problem out quickly.

    I will be ordering from them again soon, I tried a mini Slatkin candle out and the scent was quite strong and lasted for a while considering they are tiny. I am now eyeing up your cake frosting and cookie anti bacs! x

    1. Seriously those two are yummy! And the holder I got was different to the one in the picture but I'm glad I got a nice colour.

      I got sent a mini Slatkin and a PocketBac back along which is what got me hooked. It was Cinnamon Pumpkin or something, not one I would have picked but it lasted for ages.

      I found that instead of burning right down the candle would turn to liquid where it was burning and then when it hardened it would burn the same way = lasting for ages. My Yankee Candles just burn right down. Worst explanation ever but yeah. ;)

  5. I love foodie cakey type scents. I am using Vampire Blood at the moment at work (plum, but smells more like jam to me!)

    1. Me too! I prefer food scents over wood/musk type things. As is quite clear here. :P

    1. I know right?! I think they'd do really well because it totally different scents to the consumer market, which I think people would prefer.
