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.

C. O. Bigelow Mentha Vitamin Body Wash # 1411 (love!)

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

I finally found a replacement for my beloved H2O + Mint Ice (I lamented about it’s loss here)!

At the advice of a friend, we went to the local Bath and Body Works store. She had me close my eyes while she opened the Bigelow Mentha Vitamin Body Wash # 1411 under my nose. Instantly, I was filled with the wonderful aroma of true peppermint. I immediately bought a tube.

After one use, I was sold. It’s got the cool, refreshing, tingle I’ve sorely missed. It’s my favorite way to start the morning or cool down after a summer run.

True to it’s word, this “mint-infused body wash provides an invigorating sensation while cleansing and refreshing skin. Our wake-you-up formula deeply nourishes with Vitamins A, C & E to keep skin extra-healthy and looking it’s best.”

My skin is softer after a few uses.

H20 + Mint Ice Body Wash (love!)

Monday, March 29th, 2010

HELP!!! I just ran out of this body wash and can’t find it online any where! I’ve been using it regularly since 2000 and can’t imagine my mornings without it! I love this Body Wash and sometimes even use it as a bath soak. The smell is intoxicating and invigorating. As the website so aptly describes, it is: “An exhilarating mint body wash that imparts a cooling, refreshing sensation while cleansing.”

I am hoping someone from H20 + is out there and can tell me where I can get more. Or why they’ve discontinued it, if even Oprah recommends it!

UPDATE: From H20_Plus: “Unfortunately we discounted that line about two years ago. We’re so sorry. Thanks for being an H2O+ fan.” Too bad! When a friend of mine asked if they might, possibly, maybe some day bring it back, they replied, “It’s unlikely, but we’ll definitely let you know if our plans change. Thanks for your interest!” Boo!!!
