Bath & Body Works India – Your guide to shopping.

Bath & Body Works
Bath  & Body Works  is in India now and they officially launched their first store inMumbai!

Bath & Body Works

One of my favorite fragrance brands, Bath & Body Works brings their entire bath and body collection to Mumbai. They launched earlier in Delhi, Noida and Gurugram and I am so happy that they are here in Mumbai too.

The Mumbai store is located in Palladium, High Street Phoenix in Lower Parel.

I have been an ardent fan of this brand for a really long time. Every trip internationally this would be on my shopping list and especially in America,  I would look for exclusive offers while buying their skin care and fragrances. Over the years, I have a few of their products that I particularly love and I thought of sharing these with you, just as a guide while you shop here. A visit to their store is really overwhelming for me simply because there is so much that I love and want from there, almost always!

I love the brand for their unconventional approach to scents. Something that is common across all their products is that refreshing feel that you get after using them. And of course with excellent results. Their body mists for instance end up lasting you an entire day. Their lotions and creams are enriched with shea butter so they are extra moisturizing. And of course the packaging – so cute and pretty!

On my recent trip to Dubai, I went to the Bath & Body Works store there and picked up a few of their holiday fragrances for 2018. They were on a massive discount that day and cost me only 25 Dhms (about Rs.480) on that particular day! So here is what I picked up:

Magic In The Air

Bath & Body Works

One of the reasons I bought this is becuase it has a hint of vanilla! It’s a nice mild floral fragrance with almond flower and white iris.

Snowflakes And Cashmere

Bath & Body Works

This one is a beautiful woody scent. And I can almost feel that Cashmere cream when I use this.

Winter Berry Wonder

Bath & Body Works

A full on berry like scent, and it doesn’t have that woody, floral or spicy undertone. If you love fruity fragrances then this one is awesome.

Freshwater

Bath & Body Works

This is a deodorant from their men’s collection and has a very subtle aqua scent. Nothing overpowering and perfect for everyday wear.

So here are my favorite Bath & Body Works products that you can finally buy in India!

Life & Pursuits – Certified Organic Ayurveda

Organic Ayurveda Life &Pursuits
Certified Organic Ayurveda is something that a few brands can boast of. And Life & Pursuits happens to be one of them.

For me certified organic Ayurveda stands for the best quality natural ingredients that a beauty care product can have. So when Life & Pursuits offered to send me their hair oil and moisturizing lotion I was really excited to try it.

Common notion is that good quality Ayurvedic beauty care is expensive. But after trying out these products, I realized that there is an evident value proposition in their brand and that I was getting the best quality beauty care possible.

Life & Pursuits Ultra Light Moisturizing Lotion

Organic Ayurveda Life & Pursuits

Price – Rs.600 for 100 ml

Ingredients

Mulethi, Manjishtha, Kesar, Aloe Vera Juice, Sunflower Oil, Rose Oil, Lavender Oil etc. – All certified organic.

Product Claims

Organic Ayurveda Life & Pursuits

  • Hydrates Skin
  • Non Greasy

My Experience

I do find this moisturizer effective on dry skin areas like elbows and knees. It is also very light-weight, doesn’t feel sticky and is actually very easily absorbed into skin. So honestly the product claims do hold true. However, since this is a natural product the fragrance is kind of earthy too – it doesn’t have that pleasant smelling artificial perfumed fragrance at all. This product doesn’t bother skin, or cause any kind of redness or rashes.

Life & Pursuits Hair Revitalizing Oil

Organic Ayurveda Life & Pursuits

Price – Rs.600 for 100 ml

Ingredients

Organic Ayurveda Life & Pursuits

Bhringraj, Brahmi, Amla, Neem, Methi, Coconut Oil, Germanium Oil etc. – All certified organic.

Product Claims

Organic Ayurveda Life & Pursuits

  • Revitalizes scalp and hair follicles
  • Soothes dry scalp and clears dandruff

My Experience

A massage with this oil and I definitely found that my hair looked shiny after washing it. I don’t have severe dandruff so I can’t really say much about that claim, but overall my hair definitely felt nourished after using this oil 3-4 times. It does have a darkish color and has quite a watery consistency so my advice is to be really quick in getting this on your scalp. However, I found that it doesn’t really stain pillow covers as it is easily absorbed in the scalp.

As of now, Life & Pursuits has a limited skin and hair care range. However they do have a lot of Baby Care products which you can check out here.

Their products are available on their website and Amazon as well. You can click the links below in case you wish to know more about this.

 

I’d love to know about your favorite beauty care brands so leave me a comment telling me about them.
