Bath & Body Works Anti-Bacterial Hand Gels

Clean, clean, clean!


I'm not a clean-freak. I wash my hands when needed, but I don't obsess over it. There's just one tiny thing that's been bothering me... I live in a city that has 12 million inhabitants. That's 24 million hands. Everywhere. Yikes!
***
Nisam neka velika čistunica. Perem ruke po potrebi, ali ne mislim stalno o tome. Samo, jedna stvar me muči... Živim u gradu od 12 miliona stanovnika. To je 24 miliona ruku. Svuda. Iiiik!


 
So that got me thinking that maybe I do need something for emergency use and when I don't have a tap nearby. I bought a hand gel in a nearby Chinese drugstore, but it dried out my hands withing the first week of using it and none of my hand creams managed to reduce the dryness.
***
To me je nateralo da razmislim o nekom alternativnom sredstvu za pranje ruku u žurbi ili kada nemam česmu u blizini. Kupila sam gel u obližnjoj kineskoj drogeriji, ali mi je užasno isušio ruke već tokom prve nedelje upotrebe i ni jedna krema nije uspela da smiri situaciju i umanji suvoću.



A friend from America was planing a trip to China, so I asked her if she could bring me these anti-bacterial hand gels (and some other stuff). I left it to her to chose which scents to bring and she really surprised me because each one is very nice!

Prijateljica iz Amerike je planirala da dođe u Kinu, pa sam je zamolila da mi donese ove antibakterijske gelove za ruke (i još par sitnica). Ostavila sam njoj da bira koje gelove će da donese i baš me je iznenadila jer svaki miriše divno!


From left to right/S leva na desno: Japanese Cherry Blossom, Aqua Blossom, Pink Chiffon, Sweet Pea and Paris Amour.



Each of these bottles holds 29ml of powerful germ-killing formula enriched with Tahitian Palm Milk. It has 68% of alcohol and is quite gentle on the hands. This is the first hand sanitizer that didn't dry out my skin and leave my hands in need of hand cream afterwards. The Tahitian Palm Milk does the trick because my hands are extremely soft and the cuticles are in excellent shape.

Svaka bočica sadrži 29ml snažnog antibakterijskog sredstva koje je obogaćeno palminim mlekom sa Tahitija. Sadrži 68% alkohola i prilično je nežan prema rukama. Ovo je prvi gel koji mi nije isušio ruke i ostavio ih da vape za hranljivom kremom posle pranja. Izgleda da palmino mleko deluje jer su moje ruke jako mekane i zanoktice su u odličnom stanju.





All of these bottles are pocket size and they fit literally every purse. Even though they are so small, they last at least 2-3 weeks of every day use.
***
Sve ove bočice su male, džepne veličine i staju bukvalno u svaku torbu. Iako su maleni, gelovi traju barem 2-3 nedelje svakodnevne upotrebe.




My favorite hand gel is most definitely Paris Amour that smells like tulips and champagne and has glitter in it. Glitter! There isn't a lot of it, but just enough to make a glitter-lover happy.
***
Moj omiljeni gel je definitivno Paris Amour jer miriše na lale i šampanjac i u sebi sadrži šljokice. Šljokice! Nema ih mnogo, ali taman dovoljno da usreće jednog šljokicoljupca.



Here is the list of ingredients for all gels.

  1. Ja sam uvijek bježala od ovih stvari jer su smrdile, a kod nas nema tih sa lijepim mirisima :( Ali tetka mi je donijela BBW iz Amerike i tako su divniii :D Nažalost, dobila sam cimet koji baš i ne volim, ali od sestre kradem vaniliju :p

  2. Slatko skroz. Ja vec dugo koristim Oriflame gel i jako mi se svidja, fino i mirise, kao neki muski parfem. Inace, nam nazalost i nije neki izbor, a bas je potreba imati tako nesto u torbi.
