My Bath and Body Works collection!

Hello! How are you today? I'm feeling a little better (it's still April when I'm writing this and so I still have tonsillitis) and hopefully I'll be 100% better soon! Anyway, today I have a Bath and Body Works collection, because I really wanted to do one of these. Just a quick disclaimer: I get given about 95% of this stuff for birthdays and Christmases by family and friends, and I am not trying to brag or boast in any way, shape or form. I have accumulated TONS of stuff over the past few years, because everyone knows I like Bath & Body Works so people always give me stuff from there. Also, I have had a little 'sort out' of my collection and so unopened hand sanitizers and body lotions have gone in my 'gifting bag' which is a little bag that I keep stuff in that I want to give to friends/family as presents. Now, without further ado, I will get on with it!

The first thing I have, which was a Christmas present from my parents, is the three wick Twisted Peppermint candle, I was so so close to buying the small version of this myself in the after-Christmas hugeeeeee sales where everything is so cheap, but instead I got it and I was so happy, it's burning right now and I just love it so much. It smells really pepperminty and is so lovely.

Next, I have two soaps, and I'm contemplating putting the White Pear and Fig one in the gifting bag, just because I'm not 100% sure if I really like the smell, even though I bought it myself so I must've really liked it at the time. The Japanese cherry blossom soap has lasted me so long, it was part of a gift set that I got for Christmas, and so I put it in my bathroom on Christmas day and it's still got soap in today, just over four months later, on the 27th of April. The Japanese cherry blossom range smells so so good, I would definitely recommend getting some of it if you're ever in Bath and Body Works and don't know what to get.

Next up is some shower gels, none of which I actually bought, the Japanese Cherry blossom one was a Christmas present, and the rest were birthday presents this year, all except for the lemon pomegranate were parts of sets, and they all smell so lovely, I use them in the bath/shower everyday.

Next I have a candle, which is the Lavender vanilla candle and oh my god, the candle smells so so so good, we have a bigger version in the kitchen which hasn't been burnt yet, it's my mums. This candle smells absolutely amazing, like I cannot stress how nice it is. It's not too over powering and it's not too faint a smell. It's even burning, which I love and it's honestly such an amazing candle. Sophie, my best friend in my old school (which I may be moving back to for September, I don't know yet, I have to decide) gave me this candle for my birthday, along with two others (which you will see very soon).

Next I have two hand sanitizers, which live on my dressing table in front of my little mirror (they hide the blue tack that I have to use to keep the mirror from falling down) and my dad got me these in the sales after Christmas, they were equivalent to about 25p each and I really love them, they're more for display but still.

Moving on, next I have two nourishing hand creams, one of which I paid for (the second item so far, whoo) and I planned on giving it to my aunt but then I started using it and so that was the end of that. Then my friend Jamila got me the Iced Blackberries one for my birthday this year, and the thing I like most about them is that they're such a good size for travelling, my favourite ever hand cream, which is the Soap & Glory hand food one is in such a big bottle thing that it's kind of awkward to carry around, whereas these would fit perfectly in your handbag. I used to take the Vanilla bean noel one into school (which I paid for) and then one of the girls in my year decided it would be funny to be really mean, so not only did she eat both my cheese puffs and my brownie that day, and then cover my locker key in chewing gum, she decided to start squiring hand cream everywhere which I was so cross about. Anyway, I'm done ranting.

Before I move on, I just want to apologise for the absolutely awful camera quality, my camera doesn't have any storage and I can't find a new memory stick that fits my camera anywhere, the camera on my iPod has just completely broken, my phone is out of storage and my iPad is out of storage, so I had to use my mum's iPad (which was mine first but that's a different story). Anyway, the next thing on my list is a set that my friend in year 7, Kate, got me for my birthday (I think she got me it for my birthday anyway?) and it's just the miniature golden magnolia sun set, with the little body lotion and the little body mist/perfume. These are so good because they're travel size, and they fit in your PE bag so after PE you can spritz yourself (though I don't use that body mist in school, I use a different one). I take these on holiday every year and to be honest they're just the best size ever.

Next I have a body cream, and it is the Japanese cherry blossom ultra Shea 24 hour cream. I use to put this on my legs for school (weird ikr) and they would be so soft all day, and in form time at the end of the day we use to have smooth leg competitions, which was so odd, but we'd all see wo had the smoothest legs. Anyway, aside from the weirdness, that is what we used to do and my legs always used to be really soft when I used this. Oh, and this was in the Japanese chrry blossom set that I got for Christmas, if you were wondering.

Next I have my full sized body mists, I have six, all of which were presents, I chose the Cosy Sunday Morning one and the Midnight pomegranate came free with it. I'm actually thinking of putting the Midnight pomegranate one in the gifting bag because I'm not sure I want to keep it. But they all smell really nice, the Oahu coconut sunset, pink chiffon and Japanese cherry blossom ones aren't scents I would usually go for, so I haven't used them that many times, but I still like them.

 

Pre warning: the background changes now because I accidently turned the shower on in the bath where I was taking the pictures, so I had to improvise.
So now I have body lotions, and all of these were presents, apart from the Wrapped in comfort one, which I got free in Bath and Body Works with the body mist (I think so anyway) and it smells so good. I also have a Beautiful day one, which I meant to give to a friend for her birthday, because I got two body lotions that day because one came free with the other, but in the end I gave her the one that I liked and it was a sad day. So now the Beautiful day one is in the gifting bag, along with a beautiful day hand sanitizer. Out of all the body lotions, my favourite would have to be frosted wonderland or wrapped in comfort, they just smell absolutely incredible. I think that frosted wonderland was a limited Christmas scent, I don't know if it's going to be back this year, and I don't know if wrapped in comfort is going to become a like 'staple' scent so it's always in stock, at the moment it's limited edition (so I believe).

Next I have Christmassy things, so these are the rest of my Christmas candles and all of the Christmas hand sanitizers (all of which I bought). The candles were Christmas presents, I got the Evergreen one in January, but it was supposed to be a Christmas present, and Sophie got me the Winter Candy Apple one.

Next I have more candles, all of which were birthday presents from friends, and they all smell so so good, even though I haven't burnt the two little ones yet.

Now I have the rest of my hand sanitizer collection, six of which I bought myself, one I took from the drama room in school and one my friend Bella got me for our secret santa in form.

 Now I have a room spray, this is one of the first things I ever got from Bath and Body Works and I still really like it, three years later. It smells really fresh and nice and I just really like it.

The very last thing is another hand sanitizer that I keep in my pencil case for school, it smells so nice but its almost empty, which is really sad.

That is everything! I hope you liked this and I will see you soon with another post!
