Disclaimer---This question is for those of us who buy products very low on Skin Deep.

I don't shop at Bath and Body because the fragrances make me sneeze and (more importantly) the ratings on SkinDeep are pretty bad. That being said, Dd1 wants some lotion/hand sanitizer from this place for her birthday. Would you just let it go this time? I think if I say yes once I'm opening the door to this stuff. If I say no...I wonder if I can find something in store that is comparable but fun. I think she's over the Burts Bees stuff and I'm pretty sure the attraction the Bath and Body is the scents they have. Of course it can't have 'baby' anywhere on the bottle (I can add the 'Hempz' brand to that list for obvious reasons).

Thank for the help (oh...must be in a B/M store)

Not sure how much better they are but what about stuff from The Body Shop?

They have a Mango or Satsuma hand sanitizer with no triclosan http://www.thebodyshop-usa.com/bath-body-care/hands-feet/hand-sanitizers/mango-antibacterial-hand-sanitizer.aspx

They have a variety of body butters and lotions in different scents ... mango, papaya, strawberry, peach etc. http://www.thebodyshop-usa.com/bath-body-care/body-moisturizers.aspx

OR how about the Gud line from Burts bees?

The hand sanitizer from Bath and Body is a "thing" right now with all the girls in this area. They have cute carry cases that the kids clip onto their backpacks. I'm not sure DD even uses the hand sanitizer LOL! I wonder if you could get away with buying one and refilling it with something better.
