Bath and Body Works Tranquil Sleep (Original, lost!)

Monday, June 21st, 2010

I loved this scent. In the linen spray, in the bath soak, in the lotion, in absolutely everything.

I can’t even remember how I found it. It might have been a gift, I don’t know. But I rememebr how much I loved it.

I was so disappointed when Bath and Body Works discontinued it. I searched online and even bought a few of the bath soaks from e-Bay. Big mistake. The scent had changed in the tub and wasn’t right. What a waste.

Luckily for me, Bath and Body Works has tweaked the Aromatherapy line and added Lavender and Vanilla in their Aromatherapy Sleep collection. It seems every year, as my memory of the original fades, the Lavender and Vanilla scent gets closer and closer to Tranquil Sleep.

So while the original is lost, the new version is just as good. I hope this one sticks around.

Bath and Body Works Hairworks Banana Mint Deep Treatment (lost!)

Friday, June 18th, 2010

Before Bath and Body Works created their own line of shampoo and conditioners to go with their signature scents, they had Hairworks. Which I LOVED.

I can’t even begin to tell you how much I miss this product. Bath and Body Works Hairworks Banana Mint Deep Treatment was the first hair mask I’ve ever tried. It tamed my curls, moisturized and smelled amazing (assuming you like the smell of bananas).

As I was writing this post, I found it available on E-bay. However, since it has been several YEARS (maybe even a decade) since this was produced I won’t buy it. Neither should you. These products do have a shelf life. They do go bad.

In my search I did find a recipe for a more natural (the original was labeled natural, but wasn’t so much) version of this and will have to give it a try. I promise to keep you Pretties updated and let you know how it goes!

Bath and Body Works Stress Relief – Eucalyptus Spearmint (love!)

Monday, May 10th, 2010

This is a great compliment to the Kiss My Face Cold and Flu soak. It’s part of the Aromatherapy line, which I love. The scent goes on a bit strong, but fades quickly. It’s clean, fresh and just wonderful.

I find it relaxing and comforting. It is amazingly moisturizing. Even after a few hand washings. I tend to use it in the morning on my way out the door. It’s uplifting.
