Aloe conditions and nourishes skin

I believe this is the new packaging of their body spray, I must say I love it. Their old bottle just a plain clear plastic bottle, this one is cuter! Bright and colorful. Sea Island Cotton particularly has a peacock feather design on the bottle. So pretty and girly. The nozzle works well, but I don’t feel any difference from their old packaging. It feels the same.

The packaging definitely win me, but how about the smell? I blindly purchased it, without smelling it first, and unfortunately this is not my favorite, some people might like it but not me. To me it just smells like laundry detergent.  Sharp and powdery. Nothing sweet, nothing fruity, nothing sexy, just a clean detergent scent.

Don’t get me wrong, I love other BBW scent like Warm Vanilla Sugar, Sweet Pea, and Japanese Cherry Blossom, but Sea Island Cotton is just not my cup of tea. I'm going to use it as laundry freshener :)

Bath and Body Works Sea Island Cotton Body Lotion

The texture is just lovely. Creamy and moisturizing without being oily. My skin feels great after using it. Just the perfect consistency. The downside is, same like the body spray, I don't enjoy the smell :( I wish the scent could have been sweeter. Not straight up detergent.

So have you tried Sea Island Cotton? what do you think of them? what is your favorite scent from BBW? tell me in the comment below.
