What a random post, haha, but that's what I'm all about lately. If you wanna blog about it, then do (the mod mermaid-isms, coming to a fortune cookie near you) Anyway, whenever you walk into Bath & Body Works there's no way you can resist the little acrylic tubs of goodness that are filled to the brim with these little PocketBac hand sanitizers. There's a huge array of scents that'll make your nose tingle and twitch. My eye always goes to the sparkly and glitter packed sanitizers. Every time I pick a newly glittered scent, I cross my fingers and hope it smells good. Who doesn't love disinfecting while at the same time glitter coating their hands? Plus, they're always running a promotion on them, which is 5 for $5. The ones that don't get infused with glitter have little blue "bursting beads." I'm not exactly sure of their benefit but they're super distracting to squish during long lectures. The scents on all of these are super potent which is fantastic as it not just the alcohol smell. Be warned that if you're in the confines on a NYC subway you will get glared out if it's not a universally delicious smelling smell, but you do you! My favorite scent I ever got of these was a peachy smelling one that was called "I Love Shopping" which was more than fitting for me. The scents are constantly changing with the seasons and whilst I love the fruity and citrusy scents of the summer, I cannot wait for the sweet Christmas cookie smelling ones in the winter!
Do you prefer the bursting beads or glitter?
Which is your favorite scent that you've ever had?
If you're wondering why there are only 4 instead of 5, it's because I was kind and gifted one to the man friend (you're welcome, Anthony!! ;)
I love the PocketBacs - its only ashame we don't have easy access to them in the UK. I have a honey and lavender scented one and I love it!
ReplyDeleteIt is such a shame because everything is (quite) affordable and lovely! I love the lavender scented ones! Put me right to sleep :)
DeleteI love these!I buy them from ebay as we dont have them in the UK xx
ReplyDeleteI didn't know they sold them on eBay and I didn't know they were that loved that people would buy them like that. Very interesting!
DeleteOh the Malibu Sunset has a cute packaging - wow I've already tried the Maui Sunset out as well BUT with the more "vintage" cover - see here (LOVE the scent - wished that B&B Works would be here in Europe as well;)): http://nikasinspirations80slifeandbeauty.blogspot.co.at/2014/05/april-empties-bodycarehandcare.html

It's such a shame that they're not overseas! At least there's something exciting to look forward to when you lovelies cross the sea and come visit in the States! :)
DeleteI haven't seen the glittery ones yet! They're so pretty! I got a bunch (meaning way too many) of the beady ones when I was in the States, even though I rarely use hand sanitizer to be honest. I just thought they look cute and they smelled delish. Totally justifiable purchase, right? :D
ReplyDeleteHaha, it's so easy to go overboard cause they're always on such a deal, especially when they don't have them in your country! I use them to make my hands smell good or when I just feel dirty, haha, but yes, it's totally justifiable if they can at least look pretty as they lay there! ;D
DeleteMy mum brought me back a ton of these last time she went to the States and I love them! I think my favourite is called Golden Pear or something like that - it's so delicious!
