Five Favorite - Bath and Body Works True Blue Spa Products

True Blue Spa has been a favorite Bath and Body Works product line since I first worked there in college. This line contains very high quality products with high levels of active ingredients that also happen to smell great and are very fun to use. This line was just given a packaging makeover for spring 2011 so I decided to let you all know what my five favorite products from this company are. I have bought all of these products over the past few years and usually ended up rebuying them at least once or twice more.

My five favorite True Blue Spa...

60 - Second Manicure Hand Scrub - One of the best hand scrubs that I have ever tried and it really extends the life of my manicure. It is a sugar scrub with a jelly-like texture and smells like sweet candy oranges. "Why wait? This sugar-based exfoliating treatment makes quick work of dull, dry skin and ragged cuticles to give even the most mani-deprived hands a taste of soft, smooth, spa manicure perfection - in just one minute".

Fresh Foaming Body Buff - A scrub that is spiked with shea butter and is gentle enough to use everyday. The light orange fragrance makes it a perfect wake-up call in the morning and it foams and rinses clean so it can be used as a daily body wash or a twice a week scrub. "If you're like us, you never miss an opportunity to shower yourself with luxury. This pampering, cleansing shower scrub with soothing Orange Fruit Extract lets you buff and polish skin with gentle exfoliators, then lavishes it with a generous dose of nourishing shea butter beads. Shall we start the shower for you?"

Super Rich Body Cream - This used to be known as Lay It On Thick and I have already raved about this product this winter. This is a heavy duty moisturizer with a high shea butter concentration that is very hydrating and helps to heal winter-ravaged skin. "Nothing makes skin feel better than incredibly rich shea butter. This deluxe cream takes it even further with protecting, conditioning Vitamin E and Macademia Nut Oil. Because you know more is really more."

Invigorating Spa Scrub - This salt-based scrub provides one of the best exfoliations of any product on the market. This scrub will get all the dead skin off and I love it use it on alligator skin at the end of the winter. This scrub contains natural mineral sea salt and works equally well for men and women. "Dry skin rubbing you the wrong way, and no time to get to the spa? Just reach for this cooling, exfoliating Sea Salt Scrub with refreshing Eucalytpus to get the job done yourself, a la Spa."

Super Rich Foot Cream - This is the perfect foot cream to get your feet ready for sandal weather. I use this product all year round to help hydrate my feet and get the most from my pedicures. This cream contains shea butter so it hydrates well and yet sinks in easily and leaves litle to no residue on the foot. "To put it simply, nothing hydrates like Shea. Dive foot first into this luxuriously rich treatment made with nourishing Shea Butter, Conditioning Avocado Oil and refreshing Eucalyptus Extract to smooth away rough spots and drench dry skin with unbelievable moisture."

This is great head to toe collection and I really recommend the above five product and the whole rest of the collection. The new packaging is very cute and makes it really easy to tell the different sub-collections apart. I am a bit disappointed that some of the older products don't seem to be available on the website at this time. What are your favorite True Blue Spa products?
