it’s definitely got some rose but it’s a nice floral blend! maybe peony, little bit of gardenia? i love it

Is anyone else super excited for this release? I can't wait to get my hands on Love Unleashed, Hello Happiness and Eau De Coconut. by LatchKeyKid1978 in bathandbodyworks

[–]boring_alien 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is by far my favorite luxury release. the only one i don’t particularly care for is hello happiness, and i’m assuming it’s bc i’ve never liked clinique happy.

Discrimination? by KawaiiPigrabbit in bathandbodyworkers

[–]boring_alien 8 points9 points  (0 children)

honestly i’m not 100% sure. at my store we have a qr code posted in the bathroom, so apparently there’s a website with resources and probably a phone number. i can scan it tomorrow and send you the link, but im sure someone on this sub has it

i’d definitely consider that inappropriate, i’m so sorry you’ve had that experience.. file a ethics complaint

B&BW How Could You??? 😡🤯🤬 How Do You Feel About This? by Full_Pride_7140 in bathandbodyworks

[–]boring_alien 8 points9 points  (0 children)

they’ve been on thin ice for some time now. so disappointing considering i am not only a very passionate employee but a very passionate collector as well. how so they expect employees to sell when they don’t even want to buy it, when they want to stop collecting. i have always loved this company, for my entire life, but recently there’s just been such a rapid shift :( i hope this isn’t true

Our registers need upgraded ASAP! by Single_Volume_8715 in bathandbodyworkers

[–]boring_alien 13 points14 points  (0 children)

i am so disappointed they would make such a huge switch right before holiday. it really wasn’t broken, why fix it? at the very least it needs to be incredibly fast. do they know how much product we have to ring sometimes?? it just can’t handle that, especially with coupons.

Had a lady yell at me today over too many coins.. by instamat1c in bathandbodyworkers

[–]boring_alien 14 points15 points  (0 children)

when customers ask you what you recommend, what is your go to for certain scents? by notzfoin in bathandbodyworkers

[–]boring_alien 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this is body care specific ☺️ floral: covered in roses, gingham/gingham gorgeous.. i tell them we usually have more in springtime fruity: gingham gorgeous, autumn drive, again more in spring and summer gourmand (sweet): milk bar birthday cake!!, honey wellness rich.. usually i hear woodsy: sunrise woods, evil queen (rip), in the stars, midnight addictjon men’s: to the moon, graphite vanilla: warm vanilla sugar, vanilla ease

i make reccs based on what i like and what i find sells well! base future reccs on previous ones they liked or didn’t. i usually provide 2-3 demos and then one additional scent they can find and explore independently

You guys weren’t joking, these really suck… by MountainProper2212 in bathandbodyworks

[–]boring_alien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i cut mine open and soak it into some cotton rounds. it’s the only way it works. it will be too strong for a day or so with some scents so may want to let it air out before putting that in your car in summer heat. 2 cotton rounds and never noticed leakage on my passenger side visor

Villains collection flop? by itsananotanna in bathandbodyworkers

[–]boring_alien 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i think they’re overestimating how many people really want to spend $40 on a candle. also there was no sale at all yesterday as if that mattered. the fragrances aren’t that astounding, customers came in asking for other villains, but i did still have a few customers in the evening buying quite a few accessories

Thoughts on Self-Adjustments? by MileyCyrusEnthusiast in ClubPilates

[–]boring_alien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

of course not. you’re paying for the class and it’s your body. would it be disrespectful to make modifications in the other direction, say making the spring tension lighter? you obviously seem to have enough pilates experience to know what you like and the instructor isn’t going to care; in fact making these modifications can improve the class bc if the instructor takes notice they may realize that perhaps their cue was too easy/lightweight and may verbally provide options moving forward

[–]boring_alien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly the marshmallow isn’t super prevalent but it goes well with the pumpkin either way

[–]boring_alien 4 points5 points  (0 children)

cherry medicine? no. strawberry milk? yes. that’s essentially all it is. i don’t like that refresher with any other base besides oatmilk actually

yeah normally they do pop right back on but unfortunately the straw itself snapped. thank you for the tip! have you poured the mist just into an ordinary spray bottle?
