For Christmas, Hillary's 17-year-old son gifted me with a stuffed black sheep (he inherited his mother's sense of humor) and a big bottle of Bath & Body Works Aromatherapy Sleep Body Wash with lavender and chamomile. My first two, ungrateful thoughts:1) Oh, great, another bottle of freaking body wash.
2) Oh, great, lavender and chamomile. I always wanted to smell like an 85-year-old shut-in.
But I was more than pleasantly surprised when I used the wash that night before bed. I don't know about any of the claims that the formula helps induce a restful night's sleep, but I do know that it smells absolutely incredible. It's nothing like the old lady-ish scent I feared, and the lavender gives it a slight masculine edge that I love. (Beauty trivia: Prince Charles wears cologne made from the lavender he grows in his gardens at Highgrove.)
I met with the PR rep that handles Bath & Body Works' Aromatherapy line last week, and gushed to her about how much I love this fragrance. She gave me a bottle of hand soap in the same exact scent, and I have been become even more OCD about washing my hands ever since. I'm also smelling my fingers a lot, which I'm sure would look strange if there was anyone around to watch me, but since there isn't, I will continue to be a finger sniffer.
Now all I need is the body lotion and my life will be complete.
PS: B&BW is having a two for $20 sale on selected mix and match body care products right now, so this would be a good time to stock up.
