bwyckoff1's Full Review: Bath & Body Works Anti Bacterial Deep Cleansing Ha...
Review: Bath and Body Works Antibacterial Gel Hand Cleaner - I admit it. I am a germaphobe. I am one of those people that absolutely is terrified that the one individual to come down with some rare illness will be me. Paranoid? Not exactly. About 15 years ago I had a rare illness that nearly did me in. I went into the abyss of the tunnel of light. The doctor told me...baby, you are the closest thing I have seen come back from the dead. He told me it was a one in a billion chance I got the thing. I wonder why, if I am so lucky, I haven't managed to hit the lotto yet. So, as a result, I am terrified of germs. I don't touch public doorknobs, I shudder when anyone coughs on me...
Now enters the secret to my sanity. The antibacterial deep cleansing hand gel from Bath and Body Works is the answer to many potential germs that are lurking.
The Positives
1. If you are a germaphobe, you need this stuff. I go to the public restrooms and can't wait to apply this stuff. It is easy and compact enough to fit in your pocketbook, or glove compartment. I have also applied the stuff after coming out of the emergency rooms in a hospital and doctor's offices. I found I suffered a lot less colds and stuff when I have this at the ready. Today with the threats of a swine flu pandemic I would not feel safe without having this bit of small protective gel ready. If you travel, keep one in your carry on bags.
2. The container is safe and pretty. The container is lightweight and plastic. It won't break and has a convenient pop top cap.
3. The scent is divine. I just popped open the cap and I can smell the lush scent of sun ripened raspberries. It leaves your hands smelling fresh and wonderful.
4. It has Vitamins in it so that you won't thoroughly decimate your hands when applying it frequently.
5. The price is fine. It costs about 5.00 a bottle but Bath and Body Works will usually discount the price if you buy three of them. They also will allow you great coupon deals if you purchase these. That is nice!
6. The product can only be found at Bath and Body Works boutiques. These shops are usually found quite easily at the Malls and at your local outlet centers.
Negatives
1. I only have one complaint. If you use this too much , your hands tend to dry out. This is due to the anti-bacterial chemicals necessary in it kill the germs. 2. I am not quite sure what the small balls are floating around in this gel. 3. The other complaint is the print on the ingredient label is too small. This could definitely be an issue for someone who may be allergic to some random ingredient. Labeling needs to be improved here.
My Conclusion
In my infinite wisdom, I think you should definitely purchase this product. All in all it will save you some creepy crummy germ-borne disease. It is lightweight-handy-smells divine. Go get it
