Bath and Body What?

Have you noticed how upscale Bath and Body Works has become? Actually, that's not one hundred percent accurate. The store still carries its trademark soaps and scents, but it's recently added some top of the line brands like C.O. Bigelow and another line from Provence, France. I tried out some of these higher end products and have to say they are very luxurious. I enjoyed a lip balm made with shea butter from a honey-based line. I also tried some products with lavender and rose. I love rose products. I was going to buy some eye make-up remover but it was 15 bucks. I thought that was a lot of money for a small container of product. (Even the beauty babe has to resist temptation sometimes.) In any case, I've read that the company is also adding some high end cosmetic lines too, like Awake, but only in their flagship stores. I'm always amazing how busy BBW is on the weekends. We were in the Concord Mills store and people were lined up at the cash register.

Top Shelf Recommendation: Pop Beauty lip gloss: kitten. Give your lips something to purrrrrrrrrrrrr about. Available at Sephora and Nordstrom.
