STAY CALM WITH BATH AND BODY WORKS MALAYSIA

It's an American retailer under the L Brands umbrella, along with Victoria's Secret. It sells body care, hand soaps and home fragrance. 

So far, there are 19 stores in Malaysia (soon to be 20 because I saw a new store about to open in IOI City Mall Putrajaya, not sure when it's going to open. Please let me know if you know!).

My personal collection. Well, it started only in January 2020 when someone bought for me 3 items (body mist, cleansing hand gel and body cream) from the store. Thank youuuuuuuuuu!

It's still a small collection (very small) and the aim is to have different scents for different products. For instance, if I have the scent in the shape of candle, I won't purchase the scent for body mist. It's hard to have a favourite because they have variety of scents. So, I don't see myself buying a full range of a specific scent. We'll see how it goes next year!

Here are my collection and I'll provide the link for every items :

Body Care

There are body wash, shower gel, body scrub, foot scrub, hand scrub, body wash accessories (like loofah or cosmetic bag), body lotion and cream, hand cream and their body fragrance which includes body sprays and mists, perfumes and colognes. 

I love the part where they sell men perfumes and colognes as well. 

These are mineeee :

• Fine Fragrance Mist : A Thousand Wishes

I love this fancy scent. It has a hint of musk too it with the floral and fruity scent. Fades into a warmer, more mature scent. It's really well-balanced so it's not too overwhelming. 

Available here : FINE FRAGRANCE MIST : A THOUSAND WISHES

• Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Body Cream : Cactus Water 

Cream itself is thicker in consistency than lotions and provide a barrier that keeps skin ultra-hydrated. Additionally, it is infused with hyaluronic acid. Try this out if you need something that hydrates your skin instantly. This is a powerful hydrator indeed. It doesn't leave any greasy feels afterwards so good enough. It's lightly fragranced with notes of dewy cactus of course, bergamot so you can smell hint of citrus just slightly and also white tea.

I couldn't find it on their website. Maybe it got discontinued hewwwww 

but here is from Amazon : HYALURONIC ACID HYDRATING BODY CREAM : CACTUS WATER

Hand Sanitizers

In Malaysia, they only sell the PocketBac Cleansing Hand Gel. RM 11.00 for 29ml but they always have this promo : Buy 3 For RM 30 or 5 For RM 45. So, know when you should buy it 😉

However, they have hand sanitizer sprays and a bigger size of hand sanitizers on their main website. Here's an example :

TEMPTING but not available in Malaysia.

• PocketBac Cleansing Hand Gel : Mad About You

I chose this because it has glittersssssssss! So you'll have glitters all over your hands if you apply this. Do avoid touching your face later on. 

Let's talk about the scent. It screams fruity all the way as the top notes are Big Strawberry, Black Currant and Cassis. It also has that nice lingering smell of musk that you won't smell much of the floral part of it. It actually is a mixture of flowers such as peony and jasmine but I can only smell the fruity part real bad.

Home Fragrance

They sell candles and air fresheners (for rooms and cars). 

For candles, they have 3-Wick Candles and Single Wick Candles. 

• Single Wick Candle : Gingham

Gingham is their best selling scent for their body care range as well.

This one smells sooooo refreshing. I feel like I'm in a shower because it smells like soap! Floral and fruity altogether.

• 3-Wick Candle : Apple Weather

A combination of Apple+Cinnamon+Lavender = Apple Weather

This one, the cinnamon is overpowering but apple and lavender just balance it. It's kindda nice!

• 3-Wick Candle : Aromatherapy, Stress Relief

My ultimate stress reliever 

This is just one of their aromatherapy range. Eucalyptus itself is very fresh as it includes a hint of minty and lemony. The tea is just to balance it out so the minty and lemony scent doesn't smell too sharp.

I have been having some sleeping problems. It started when we were banned from travelling. I cried almost everyday in March and April. Learning online was super hard and you just to be at your study table almost 24 hours. I bought a scented candle from Typo in May and I love it. The problem is that it's too pricey for the size of it.

Then, I figure I should try scented candles from body works because they have sooooooo many different scents. Fruity, floral, musky and so many for for everyone. 

I think Typo only have 5 scents if I'm not mistaken and I only love one of it - Sparkle Bellini Scented. Soooo good smells like citrus and bubblegum. 

I honestly feel that scented candles like this just help me with it. It always makes me feel calm and relax. Also, try light up scented candles when you're studying. It works for me!

It has been a rough year with a bad start but amazing ending. I am very grateful for everything that happened in 2020. 

Hoping for the best next year, so let's get prepared by staying calm and relax hehe <3

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
