Hi everybody! It's that time of year again. It's Bath and Body Work's Semi Annual Sale!! I always look forward to going to it in June and December because they have such amazing deals. I recently picked up a few (more than just a few) things that are fairly new at BBW with my mom and I would like to show you my haul! I also picked up some other products that were not on sale like the hand sanitizers because I just needed some more. You can never have enough PocketBacs, right? So, I believe that this sale is still going on so go out and get these awesome products while you can. I will try to link every product bought throughout this post but, many of the things I bought may or may not be available on the website because they are clearance items. I found some of the products on Amazon, too so bear with me! This sale has 50%-75% off items and it's great to stock up on necessary products like soaps, lotions, room sprays, and more!
I started off with getting some of the stuff I needed that were not on sale, like these two PocketBac hand sanitizers. I love using these fun Pocketbacs at school attached to a cute holder you can buy to go with it or just throwing it into my purse! You never know when you're gonna need to clean your hands, so these are great to carry around. I go through these so much and I don't know how many I have had in my lifetime! I wanted to try new flavors and picked up the Cherry Champagne Toast and the Check Moewt Pomegranate.
Then I also had to pick up some room sprays. My mom loves these for our home so we had to get a couple more while we were there! It's 2 for $11 and I guess we needed one extra. When we don't have the time to light a candle in our house, we just spray some room spray and it makes the place smell amazing! My mom bought these three: Watermelon lemonade, Georgia Peach and Coconut Vanilla. So yummy!
Next, my mom and I got a bit carried away with the lotions. We bought 6 full size body creams because my family and I use them almost every single day! I bought the Agave Papaya Sunset, Hibiscus Guava Fresca, and Iced Pear Margarita body creams and gosh do they sound amazing? I swear these flavors sound so incredibly delicious sometimes. All of these full size body creams were only $3.75 each!
I also happened to pick up Mango Mandarin, Brown Sugar and Fig, and Dark Kiss, which are some oldies but, still goodies from their collection! They call them "Flashback Fragrances". They're very nice smelling for summer and super moisturizing. I love to use all of these after I shower so I smell good and my skin is very smooth. I love how these are more thicker than your normal lotions and are infused with Shea butter for the ultimate "24 hour moisture"!
I was interested in trying one of their mini hand creams to also just pop in my purse and I picked up this Southern Lemon Chiffon Hand Cream. It smells so sweet and fresh! I can take it with me wherever I go, which is a must during the summer.
I needed a new mini shower gel to take with me on my next trip soon so, I picked up this Warm Vanilla Sugar one! It smells just like a Cinnamon Roll. I love these mini shower gels because they save so much space during travel!
My mom is obsessed with glitter and shimmer sprays so she had to (obviously) purchase one during the sale. The Lush Pink Dragon Fruit Diamond Shimmer Mist is a perfume that you wouldn't like if glitter isn't your thing. My mom loves how it reflects off the sun in the summer and she like douses herself in it whenever she goes out. It smells really tropical, though!
I always want more body sprays around to have in case I run out. Having mini body sprays are even better like this Beautiful Day Travel Size Mist. It smells like fresh, crisp, apples and reminds me of all things summer! I have already been using it as you can see from the little amount missing in the picture. I just couldn't wait to use it!
I had to save best for last! Candles are pretty much the only reason I truly look forward to this sale. They are all half priced and I always need to stock up when I can! These candles usually last me throughout the whole summer. I had to make some tough decisions about the scents I really wanted for my room. So I ended up buying the Beautiful Day candle just because I absolutely adore the body mist so much. I needed my whole room to smell that way, too!
I also picked up the Lemon Mint Leaf candle; I've had it before and really loved how citrusy and fresh it made my room smell. I'm not one to love overwhelming scents so I always gravitate towards the subtle, crisp and fruity ones instead. I usually get sick when I have really strong floral scents around and I don't want a smell to really stay a while either. These scents are perfect for any of you guys who feel the same way.
Finally, I have been eyeing this little guy ever since they came out with these amazingly adorable candles. They were just way too expensive to buy at the time and now they're on sale! This little Georgia Peach Medium Candle was one out of like 5 others I had to make a decision out of. I just love peach scents a lot and decided this was the perfect one for my room! I love the little container it came in and couldn't leave it behind.
I love reading about hauls and watching haul videos so much because I love knowing what's in and what's out! I hope you guys enjoyed this huge haul that I did. Bath and Body Work's Semi Annual Sale is a sale not worth missing. They have amazing discounts and deals on all of their famous products! Is there a signature scent you love by them? Tell me if you've gone to the sale in the comments below!

Hello lovelies! I have a mini post for you all on this beautiful Monday. I did a little shop at my local Bath and Body and had to restock on some of my favorites. These are pretty much the classic body creams that Bath and Body Works have sold over the past years and I had to share my favorites with you guys!
For starters, I'm not an avid lotion applier-person. Haha, scented lotion can sometimes dry my skin out even more and make me itch. Especially Bath and Body Works's lotions. These are body creams, however, and do not do that to my body. I normally apply these after I take a shower and just lather it on!
Pearberry- If you are into really fruity scents, I highly recommend this one. It isn't insanely sweet and sickening. It leaves a very pretty scent on and smells like you've just walked through a patch of raspberries and picked some pears in the warm sun! (Very descriptive, Natalie).
Sweet Pea- This is a classic. Everyone has either used this scent or seen it as they browse all of the scents in Bath and Body. It's your fresh, floral scent and is always a go-to when you don't know which to get.
Amber Blush- I really love using this in the summer and the fall. It smells so warm... haha that doesn't make sense, but you know what I mean! Like you've been sitting at a bonfire for a couple hours roasting marshmallows. Even though amber isn't exactly sugar, it smells very sweet and sultry. Kinda sexy, too!
These creams retail at $13 each and it actually takes a very long time to use one up. They have mini versions of these too for travel and if you just want a smaller size. I think Bath and Body Works have one of the largest selections of scents available all year round, so there's a scent for everybody! These are my top 3 and I highly suggest you all go try these out!
Xoxo, Nat
The day we celebrate all things love, or in my case, myself! Ha-ha you know because I'm single. For all who are spending Valentine's Day with themselves or their pets, it's not a bad thing! I actually prefer staying in than going out to a movie or something. So a couple days ago I wanted to go pick up some Lush stuff for the upcoming weekend.
Now pampering myself has always been one of my favorite things to do. Either when I am feeling stressed or just need a bit of me-time. I have posted things in the past about finding your inner self by pampering and creating separate routines to do to refresh and revitalize your mind and body. Lush has been my major go-to for this and their products never fail.
Hello my lovelies. I feel like investing in a very nice, expensive perfume is something every woman needs to do. It does not have to be like three million dollars. A woman needs a bit of confidence before a big meeting, dinner, or even her own wedding day. And who wants to smell like rotten eggs on their wedding day? No one. So here I have one of my favorite scents that I have just discovered by Coach and I absolutely love it.
I have never tried any of the perfumes by Coach and I truly think that this scent in particular is great for everyone. It's fresh, sweet, and very light. Coach Poppy can be used pretty much any time of the year and I think that younger girls will like this perfume especially because it's not strong and it comes with a full size lotion that I use all the time on my arms and wrists. One thing I did notice was that there are different versions of this perfume and different sizes and designs as well. I honestly don't know if it's just a thing Coach does or the manufacturer changes it. That was only a little thing I noticed about this when I bought it. Other than that, this is one of the most fruity and floral scents I have smelled. It's pretty tiny but, one spritz goes a long way. I wore this all day and it still sneaked through after an eight-hour school day.
Great skincare has become very vital to my everyday routine. When I was younger, all I did was wake up, wet a washcloth, and be on my way out to school. Over the past dreadful years with dry, acne prone skin, I haven't left the house without a full face cleanse. Not only am I taking care of my face, I have also created a self-pamper ritual every night before I go to bed. When I wake up, I feel so refreshed. My skin is soft and there's no burning hands because gosh that would be annoying.
Finally! Garnier has brought their micellar water to the States! I am super excited to share this with all of you. Micellar water is just beginning to become more popular in the United States and I have no idea why they never made any for the drugstore until now. I love cleansing waters so much because of their makeup removing power and they are so hydrating. I use a small cotton pad, that you can get from pretty much anywhere, and I cleanse my face with it once in the morning and once at night. I have already been using the Simple micellar water as well and I think that its also an awesome cleanser. Those were the only two that I found at the drugstore and a reasonable price at that.
Hello Ladies! Today I wanted to share with you my summer shower routine because— let's face it— it's hot. And when there's hot, there's sweat. Who doesn't love a long, refreshing shower after a long day out in the sun?
1) Okay okay, before I start to get in the shower, I make sure I have everything I need. Shampoo, conditioner, all of that...
2) I usually start with a rinse and then I start with my hair. I think it makes sense to wash your hair then body because all of that used hair product will fall onto your already clean body anyways.
So I like to use Herbal Essences Body Envy volumizing shampoo and conditioner.
