Bath and Body Works Cooling Mist in White Citrus Review

Ok, I admit I buy into all the worst gimmicky products. I’m kinda feeling like Bath and Body Works Cooling Mist is a gimmick but I can’t help but love it. Have you tried these yet? I actually ventured into Bath and Body Works a week or two ago (not by choice, my friend Jen absolutely had to go inside or have a coronary. I choose inside rather than perform CPR), braved the scary, scary vulture SA’s, and picked up Bath and Body Works Cooling Mist in White Citrus.


Likey!

Bath and Body Works Cooling Mist in White Citrus is a refreshing, cooling body spray. Yes, that would be the gimmick part I suppose. It seems terribly pointless to have a cooling mist that’s scented. I love the idea as it does feel wonderfully refreshing on my skin and very cool but the fact that it’s scented takes away from the point. Kinda? Sorta? Or maybe that’s me.

But the good news is not only is it cooling and refreshing it smells darn nice too. White Citrus is the newest scent to the BBW line and quite lovely. The scent is very fresh and clean with touches of citrus, a tiny itty bitty hint of musk, and plenty of crispy green notes. It’s been a while since any one scent from BBW has captured my interest but this is nice. Actually I liked it so much I may go ahead and order the other bits such as the body splash and such online. What? You didn’t think I’d go back into the store did you? Once a year is plenty to make my pilgrimage through a Bath and Body Works shop. When the SA’s learn how to get off my back that’s when I’ll start heading back in store.


I’m kinda feeling the love for Bath and Body Works White Citrus and Muse Approving it for purchase! Pretty blend for Summer! Get the cooling mist you can be cool and smell pretties.

Anyone try?

Loves it?

Leaves it?

Tell the Muse!

    I picked up the one in Orange Sapphire today, and loved it. Though, I have a feeling this bottle won’t last for long, and the scent isn’t anything extraordinary, I only got it for the cooling effect…..terrible of me lol.
    And the sales associates, asked me for my number, 4 times……they are just like LUSH SA’s..

    I got this as a gift recently and am very skeptical. The first two ingredients are BUTANE and ALCOHOL. Of course they tout that it contains aloe but that is something like the fifth ingredient. Can this possibly be good for skin? I was thinking of using it at the soccer fields and read the ingredients. I just pictured baking butane into my skin and could not get over the concept. I find it hard to believe that this can be healthy.

      Butane is the “propellant” in many sprays. Simply meaning that it is what allows the product to spray, rather than using CFCs. Alcohol causes an exothermic reaction on the skin, which cools it. Simple as that! Almost all of BBW products contain sufficient moisturizers to ensure you don’t end up with dry skin.
