The release of the New Bath and Body Works Sweet On You Body Care Collection has finally happened today ( some stores have had them out for a few weeks already, just not here ) and I was there at opening waiting to get my hands on more of these delish foodie scents. I was able to try and buy just the body lotions on Friday with the buy two get one free sale pricing, but I held off on getting the entire collection until I saw a decent price on the fragrance mists. I am not a fan of the $15.50 new, raised pricing But with this collection's popularity so far, it may not go on a $6 or $7 pricing sale so I guess I better not wait too long. Today I grabbed three shower gels and added the Margarita Cupcake Body Cream using the $6.00 body cream coupon from the mailer combining it with the 20% off coupon.  It brought the pricing of the body cream down to $4.80.Later in the week, I will grab the Confetti Cake Pop Body Cream to add to that collection.For me, these kinds of scents have a place and time when I will be wearing them.  I love smelling like a woman...florals or fresh and clean when I am out and about.  Food-Inspired fragrances are adored in the evening, after a shower...or days off on weekends for me to enjoy. The packaging for me is on-trend.  Chalkboard mania is everywhere so why not body care labels, right?  The charming font chosen with textured raised lettering is only complete with the chalkboard-inspired motifs of each Bake Shop scent. This is the type of signage I would expect to see behind the counter at my favorite bakery.Although I think they missed out on huge sales of candles with not offering some in matching, chalkboard-inspired labeled jars. With textured, lattice lids.  And Pocketbacs and Hand Soaps with Matching Labels!!!!Something to note: the Strawberry Pound Cake Body Care Collection has Capital Letters on its label while the Margarita Cupcake and Confetti Cake Pop do not...leading me to believe that this highly-requested, now finally here to match the Home Collection of products will be staying when the other two scents leave.I really like all of the scents and if I have to rate them according to favorites I would say Strawberry Pound Cake, Margarita Cupcake and then Confetti Cake Pop.I did not yet try the shower gel so I will make note of how these fragrances translate into that form at a later date. I find the Strawberry to not smell synthetic or plastic. My first thought when the scent hit my nose was Nestle's Strawberry Quick that then changes to include a cream note.Margarita Cupcake smells bright and citrusy on the first sniff drying down to a subtle floral-like vanilla scent on me. It smells familiar and welcoming to me. I am not sure what I can say to describe Confetti Cake Pop other than it's vanilla. I would suggest you try these scents for yourself in store...and then grab your favorite(s) and take it home with you to see how it fits into your fragrance wardrobe.  If you have a tween or a teen's birthday coming up...grab them some of these lotions and shower gels before they are gone.  This packaging alone screams PARTY!

 ​I had to try this in-store today and it was light and airy, as you can see when it comes out of the can. It may come out fast so know that a little bit can go a long way.  It was not sticky on my hands and I rubbed it up onto my arms where it left them lightly scented and soft. Strawberry Pound Cake Whipped Body Mousse Notes: A sweet, airy swirl of fresh strawberries, golden shortcake & whipped creamA sunny ode to fresh strawberries swirled throughout the dreamiest shortcake ever! Treat yourself to our moisturizing Whipped Body Mousse with vitamin E, cocoa butter & almond oil. $18.50

Bath and Body Works uses many different ways to gauge the Love of their products prior to their release.We all know of body care "test" stores that showcase two forms of New body care fragrances soon to come out.We also know about TEST CANDLES that appear in select stores seasonally that make people go crazy for so much so that they will travel to get their hands on them. On both of these kinds of tests, sometimes a few of the items may be considered a "fail" and they won't circulate wide when they do a release.  Or they may become online-only exclusives.Recently a holiday fragrance called Shimmering Stars tested out prior to the holiday as part of the All That Glitters Body Care Collection, but it was considered a failure, never released nationwide, and the leftover products found their way to red Semi-Annual Sale bins. That is where I grabbed my Shimmering Stars lotion.One other way Bath and Body Works get feedback for new things to come is by doing random product surveys in select stores months before we may see the new item appear in stores.  I say may because sometimes the item does not come out immediately.Such was the case when the Hot Cocoa and Cream body care scent was surveyed in a Florida store and it did not come out for that holiday season but it did the following year.  And if you remember when I shared that they did survey the Land Of Sweets / Baking Spirits Bright candles early 2019, it let me know this past holiday theme name and how awesome it was going to be.The survey usually shows photos of the item on foam boards with a description of the feel it is meant to convey and the customer taking the survey answers questions regarding the packaging as well as the fragrance itself.It can be body care fragrances, wallflowers, scent portable designs, and candles. Those are the things I have seen photos of...but I am sure there could be more I have not seen that they survey.I have been told after taking the survey, the customer may be rewarded with a gift card for their time, and reminded that they are not to take photos during the process as well as share the info.And we all know that old saying...there is no such thing as a secret when two people know something...and you don't need to take the survey to see what's going on or grab a picture.Earlier tonight a friend to my page shared with me a photo of a possible new fragrance coming which I think may appear later for a fall release.Here is what I was shown. Again, there is no guarantee that we will see this scent, but I am thinking we will.  There were NO scent notes shared with me at this time.Dahlia Body Care CollectionAvailable Forms:Fine Fragrance MistShea and Vitamin E Shower Gel24 Hour Moisture Ultra Shea Body Cream24 Hour Moisture Ultra Shea Body Lotion Shea Butter and Vitamin EShimmer Diamond MistEau De ParfumMini Perfume SprayMoisturizing Body WashScrubphoto credit: @emma_fm

Bath and Body Works newest pocketbac holder couldn't be any cuter!  Perfect for little and big girls alike, this Pink Fairy makes a magic wand sound as it lights up beneath her skirt.It may be hard to see but the white part of the fairy has a subtle sparkle to it.  As you would expect a fairy to be. Priced at $12.75.I grabbed a few and I will grab a few more to share with friends who can't get to stores to buy them themselves.  I learned after the Sock Monkey Pocketbac Holder to have a few backups of adorable holders.  People kept asking me for them ( or taking them off of my purse ) and we all know if you see it in Bath and Body Works and you love it...buy it because in no time they will disappear and not return.
