Hi/Lo Beauty Booty: Bodycology VS Bath & Body Works….

Happy Friday my Beauties….Don’t worry, no “Beauty Rant” this morning….I’ll stick to “happy, fluffy thoughts”….(and maybe curtail my news veiwing minutes…SERENITY, NOW!!!).
SO, after reading my girl Paula’s post a few weeks ago about Bodycology’s Vanilla Buttercream Body Lotion ($3) ….My mouth was literally watering…Usually I pass by the special Bath & Body section at Walmart because most of the lotions I’ve tried there are about as moisturizing as well, NOTHING….
Doing the whole “lotion” routine day-in and day-out gets pretty monotonous….So I am always on the lookout for heavenly scented lotions to help break it up…And since my 151 lb frame requires about a gallon of week of the crap, CHEAP is a requirement.

VS
And if you know me at all, you know that I am like a MAGNET whenever there is a Bath & Body Works around…I’m like white-on-rice really. I love their creams and potions…and with coupons and their Buy 4 Get 5 Free deal, I usually come out “ok”…But the same size body cream will set you back around $8 to $10 bucks……So I decided to pick up some Bodycology at Walmart earlier this week…..
The Verdict: Bodycology WINS!!!! This heavy-duty cream smells like HEAVEN..(exactly like my old favorite from B&BWs that was discontinued…I think it was “Cupcake”) and actually the Bodycology formula is THICKER and more MOISTURIZING…Perfect to lube up the legs after a winter shave. The scent is strong enough to make you feel “pretty” but not compete if you want to wear another scent that day. BEST OF ALL….I got it at Walmart and it is CHEAP,CHEAP, CHEAP (<$3)…..Score one for (extremely) affordable luxury…..
Do you have any CHEAP favorites that I must know about??? Do tell….
Be Beautiful Ya’ll…..

I am so glad that this stuff isn’t really edible, or, damn, I would be a limber little girl licking my legs up before I go to sleep at night - it smells just that damn good. (Okay, that sounds kinda odd - LOL). Thanks for the comparison, tho.
