What is the best TBS other than the sunscreen? I've tried so hard not to go into BBW for months (because my stockpile is so big). What else is worth trying?

alvs may have more recs, but i love their look ma new hands [bathandbodyworks.com] hand cream, and the heel of approval [bathandbodyworks.com] foot cream in a tub. i've tried the salt scrub [bathandbodyworks.com] (there's the rub) in store and i think it's a decent scrub, at least for your hands (that's all that i've tried it on).

i also use the shea it isn't so [bathandbodyworks.com] foot cream, which is also good. i find the one in the tub to be better (it softens more), but that has glycolic acid in it so i try not to use it as much when i'm going to wear a lot of flip flops/sandals bc i never remember to put sunscreen on my feet.

i did not like their toe the line [bathandbodyworks.com] foot scrub. i didn't think it did much. i also didn't like the shea cashmere hand cream [bathandbodyworks.com] when i tried it in store - it had a scent that gave me a headache. but that could be personal preference. the look ma new hands has a delightfully light lemony scent that didn't bother me.

i also got the bring up the rear [bathandbodyworks.com] anti-cellulite lotion years ago. i thought it was fun, but gimmicky. i didn't find that it actually did anything to firm anything. but then again, i'm not sure i have any actual cellulite, just some stretch marks. guess it doesn't do anything for those. Dontknow

You should totally go! Chicago on the 4th is a LOT of fun (and that outlet mall I told you about usually has amazing sales of you need a shopping excursion). Downtown is really crowded, though. That's the only drawback Frown

Usually, I go back, but I have my oral qualifying exam on July 12 and just can't afford the time Frown
I was there last year on the 4th! Loved it!

Haha...that was exactly the mentality that made me forget Smilie Instead of using my favorites now, I use whatever is in my stockpile. I'm trying SO hard to pare down.

Thanks for the recs, Nerd and ALVS. Maybe I'll break my rule and go into BBW. I think I used to love the TBS scrub as well.

let us know how it is!

i'm searching for ingredients for all their masks and can't find any. the blackberry peeling one looks interesting too, but sounds like it may have alcohol in it. i have an old pure simplicity pumpkin mask - the new tbs one looks to have replaced the pure simplicity one! i like the pure simplicity one so i hope they're the same.

I am thanks! I hope you are too! It's been beautiful here!

Thanks for the palette review link. The colors are meh and all that I've had in some other palette before. I guess my expectations were too high and was expecting something like UD's Naked
