The Body Shop Honeymania Soap







The cute honeycomb shaped soap  with a bee imprinted in the middle is sweetly scented like honey but with a hint of floral. The soap is made with fair trade honey  that came from the nectar of over 1,000 wildflowers, yup you are basically bathing in yummy goodness [very hard not to lick the soap]. The soap provided a generous lather and left skin feel smooth, silky soft and delicately scented.

Burt’s Bees – Honey & Shea Sugar Scrub

Since spring is around the corner, I need to whip my ashy skin into shape [I wish there was something for the muffin top].  One of my favorite ways to exfoliate is using a sugar scrub. This sweet scented body sugar is packed with almonds and aloe leaf juice. The finely grated almonds and sugar crystals work in harmony to slug away dead skin. Although, the scent is honey and shea, I found the honey scent to be more dominating.  I started using this body sugar mostly because it was on sale and cheap. It did a decent job though. It left my skin smooth and soft.  I think it would leave my skin softer, if the sugar scrub wasn’t mostly composed of sugar, halfway through using the scrub the sugar became dry. It became a pain to rub the dry mixture in.

Nick Chavez Ultra Shine Honey-Peppermint Conditioner

I love the sweet scent of this conditioner. While the peppermint overpowers the honey scent it still has a quite delicious scent.  My hair feels soft and full of luster after one use. The conditioner does cause a tingly sensation, but it was quite relaxing. I love massaging this conditioner into my head.

Burt’s Bees Naturally Nourishing Milk & Honey Body Lotion

Burt’s Bees Naturally Nourishing Milk & Honey Body lotion provides ample hydration to even the driest areas. The creamy formula smells interesting…as in it is not sweet [like milk and honey] nor has a disgusting chemical smell. The smell dissipates shortly after the lotion is applied to the skin. The long lasting lotion goes on smoothly and is absorbed quickly into the skin. The non greasy lotion is packed with Milk, Honey and Vitamin E, along with Coconut and Grape Seed Oils.

Bath and Body Works Aromatherapy: Sleep - Warm Milk and Honey Body Lotion


The Bath and Body Works Aromatherapy: Sleep - Warm Milk and Honey body lotion has a warm scent that lulls you to sleep. It has a nice creamy texture and moisturizes very well. It has a nice fragrant nutmeg scent. Pair it up with  Bath and Body Works Aromatherapy: Sleep - Warm Milk and Honey Body Wash and Foam Bath to get the most benefit from this product line.

P.S. It comes in a cute glass [or really hard plastic] bottle that can be reused or used as decoration piece!

Bath and Body Works Aromatherapy: Sleep - Warm Milk and Honey Body Wash and Foam Bath


My favorite thing about outlet mall shopping is that you come across little beauty gem that sometimes would otherwise go unnoticed. I never knew that Bath and Body Works had an aromatherapy line until I came across this body wash. The scent of warm milk and honey is very faint, the scent remind me more of nutmeg. The scent lingers long after you finish your bath or shower. The body wash has cinnamon and clove essential oils which comforts and calms you for bedtime. I personally didn't notice any change in my sleeping habit or being able to sleep more easily, but I believe that if you follow this regime [body lotion + body wash] consistently with your bedtime routine you might notice some of the benefits.
