My favorite soaps of all time! I love the beads, the moisturizing, best of all, the scents! My current faves are pineapple and black amythest (the last one smells exactly like one of my favorite scents - "Caberet" by Gres)! I give these for gifts, which are always greatly appreciated. The 3 for $10 are an excellent buy!!

Wonderful!
I prefer the gel type, it seems to last much longer.
I think they're also a simple but great house warming gifts.

Love these! I stock up when they have the 3/$10 or so, and use them in the kitchen and both baths. After trying all the "types", I prefer the liquid that comes out a foam. The one that's supposed to be more moisturizing (looks creamy with beads) doesn't seem to be any more moisturizing, is more difficult to lather, and globs of it fall off into the sink and I have to use my hand to wipe them out, which gets annoying. The gels are similar, but not quite as bad. But the foams are awesome! I love being able to tailor the scents to the season, plus they're antibacterial. Plus, when you can catch the sales, they are super cheap. Can't beat 'em!

Probably one of the only products that I hadn't managed to try from B&BW, so when the new scents for Christmas came out, I figured I'd give one a whirl. I'm impressed with the quality, as you only need a small amount of product to produce a lot of lather, the scent stays on your hands for a long time, and as a cleanser, they are quite effective. Somewhat drying for my hands, so the moisturizing variety would be better for the winter, but a great product nonetheless. I hope to try some of the other scents in the future.

I prefer the gel soaps over the foam ones, but these soaps are the only reason I frequent Bath & Body Works on a regular basis. They always have a good deal on them and they have a variety of scents - my fave right now being Rainkissed Leaves.

I went over to my great grandmas house for Christmas and i noticed that she had this hand soap out. I immediatly went to use it. It smells SOOO good -i dont remember which flavor she had- and it made my hands so smooth. plus the packaging was cute! I can imagine this may be a little pricey to buy, but i may just buy it once!

The foaming antibacterial hand soaps and the wallflowers are the only BBW products I buy. I think most of their products are overrated (but smell soooo good, just not as effective as I like). When these are on sale it's a great deal. They smell so good, are antibacterial and don't completely dry my hands out. What more could you want? I love the foaming ones (the others are okay too, but I find them more drying). I will continue to repurchase these when they're on sale.

I bought this when B&B was having one of their buy 2 get 1 free deals. I love the foaming that occurs once you press the pump and although it's inconvenient to bring around for travel, I love that it's not overly drying for my sensitive hands like other gels and bar soaps do! A+!

EDIT: Moved form 5->2 lippies. This has alcohol that dries out your hands, something you do NOT want to do in the dry winter period. Also, it's not the most delicate hand soap either. Invest in Cetaphil cleanser for washing hands, no bar soap or this hand soap.

I love this handwash. Its a little on the pricey side but I buy them in bulk when they have them on sale! Packaging is great, scents are great and they look great! Nothing bad about them!

I recommend these!

I heart this stuff immensely!!! I will say that it is on the pricey side considering that it's just hand soap but it makes my hands smell amazing and makes them really soft too. My friends always compliment me on the soap when thier over too :) It comes in so many scents that it's hard to choose from. I was afraid at first since most of the scents can be very feminine, but my boyfriend has taken to them, and even goes as far to let me know that were running out and need to get more. I recommend the Japanese Cherry Blossom, my bf and I both love it!!!

I adore that whole collection. I always have a new flavor in th guest powderroom and everyone loves it. I am often trying new flavors - right now we have cherry blossom which has a woonderful sublte fragrance. I have tried them all and like the ones with the beads a little better than the foamy ones but they are all great (and 4 for $10 is a great deal). Some of my favorites are the grapefruit, brown sugar/fig and black raspberry vanilla.

I love the foam antibacterial collection. The sad part is once you fall in love with a fragrance,...they end up discontinuing it. :( Right now I love the Midnight Pomegranate. Even my husbands friends come over and can't stop smelling their hands after they use it! lol

I absolutely love my bbw soaps! I have tried the foaming, moisturizing, and the clear regular ones with the beads. So far, I have had great results with the foaming hand wash and the moisturizing one. They leave my bathroom and my skin smelling wonderful and fresh and truly clean without drying them! I would recommend the foam first, followed by the moisturizing anti bac one, because the beads in the moisturizing soap as well as the thickness can sometimes be an issue on my skin (if a drop goes astray it takes forever to scrub off once dry if that makes sense) I absolutely love the variety of scents and am never without this, especially when guests are over and in the kitchen!!!

Warm Vanilla Sugar, Kitchen Lemon, Sweet Pea, and the cotton one are just a FEW of my favorites.

I love their hand soaps, they feel great and smell wonderful. My only complaint is that they tend to clog up my dispensers (I think it is the beads - but I love them). Sp for the most part, I either keep the soap in the dispenser it comes in or thin it out a little if I am putting it into one I own.

LUV the gels/soaps for hands by B&BWorks. I only purchase these on sale though as I don't think they are worth the $ otherwise. I have very sensitive skin and these hand soaps don't cause any adverse, unwelcome skin reactions whatsoever and that's a PLUS! ;-)

I love having these soaps at my bathroom and kitchen sinks, mainly because they're antibacterial and they smell and look great. Occasionally I'll guilt myself into buying Dial or something because it is much cheaper for more soap, but I always come back to these. My favorite scents that I've tried so far are Kitchen Lemon, Pineapple, and White Tea and Ginger (although this one can be a little strong). One of my guy friends used the Pineapple soap I had in my bathroom and he raved about it, so you know it smells good. These are usually on sale for 3 for $10 and they have a wide selection to choose from.
