Bath And Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar Handwash Review

Hello everyone! :)
I am a huge fan of Bath and Body Works' products.. they smell devine! And who doesnt like amazing So when I found that Purplle.com sells them I just had to buy it immediately. (Note: this was the only product purchase from the site that I have had a good experience with. I now dislike the site for multiple reasons.. but more on that later)


This anti-bacterial hand soap is 259ml and is priced at Rs.810 but I bought it at a discounted price so only paid Rs.648. The actual prices for these products are so much cheaper abroad but since we dont have them here I dont mind paying a bit extra for it since I love it that much.

My view:


 

The handwash comes in a long bottle with a push cap that makes it easy to squirt out liquid soaps. The packaging is simple but not bad to look at. It is very easy to use and gives out more than sufficient soap in one press. The soap is light brown in colour and does remind me of warm vanilla sugar. It contains tiny blue dot like particles that help scrub out the dirt better. The texture is smooth but the blue dots feel like tiny grains (I like it). The soap is slightly on the thicker side, but then again arent most? It rinses off well so I dont mind the thickness since it is not much. It has a warm vanilla scent to it.. I'm not sure how to describe it but it smells like a slightly darker or warmer vanilla.. It does not smell as fruity as vanilla usually does. But it smells great! Those with sensitive noses would not mind this at all since it is not strong and not at all fruity. I wash my hands very very often so having a nice vanilla scent lingering on my hands after washing them is great. The smell lasts for about 20 minutes after using it.The soap does not dry out my hands and thoroughly cleanses them. I do not know if it is travel friendly as I have not taken them with me anywhere as yet.

Pros:
*Works well
*The blue dots help cleanse the dirt easily
*Smells so vanilla-ey :P

Cons:
*It is a bit pricey for the quantity
*Not available that easily
*Scent does not last long

Yay or Nay to recommend?
Yay for those who love vanilla scents :)
