SDM's Life brand knocks of Bath & Body Works stuff. I have B&BW's Mango Mandarin lotion and I LOVE it. I noticed Life makes one too. Has anyone tried it? I can't find any reviews, but I want to know if it's comparable. Thanks! :icon_smil

What's SDM? My husband loves Mango Mandarin. He's been using the shower gel since it first came out.

I believe it is Shoppers Drug Mart.

NJT, I have seen what you are talking about but it doesn't smell anything close to Bath and Body Works. It does smell nice, but BBW is much better. Don't waste your money..and Mango Manderine is just yummy.

I agree w/ Vicki .. get b&bw again, I don't think you'll be happy otherwise. I hate to say it but I'm really not a fan of Life products at all ...

Thanks, Vicki.

Yes it's Shoppers Drug Mart :icon_smil

Thanks you guys! Oh I do wish we got B&BW (or that they delivered to Canada).

You could do a CP (custom purchase).

So I started looking to see if there was a similar scent in another line. I found out that Simply Basic stuff they sell at Walmart is supposedly good, with scent knock-offs of Body Shop and B&BW. So I go today and they have this stuff called no cal. Sorta seems like a knock-off of philosophy products. Anyway they have this one called Orange Ripple. I opened and sniffed. Orange creamsicle. Mmmmm. I snagged one for $5CDN. I tried it on my hands and it's divine. Yay! :clap

awesome !!! and you can't beat that price. I didn't know simply basic had products, I know they have hair clips, barettes and scrunchies and stuff, coz I have TONS of them " )

I know! I'd seen them several times but was too scared to try them--I guess I was being a snob hee hee. They've got a bunch of different ones in similar scents to TBS body butters and BBW (Coconut Lime, Cotton Blossom, etc). I'd never noticed the no cal ones before today. I have it on my desk and I keep smelling it. Man, I'm weird.

 

[Becka]

that's not weird, BELIEVE me hehe

Sooooo, what else is Walmart hiding? I'm in there all the time but I've never been through the makeup/toiletry section, seems I should be venturing further

 

[njt1976]

The one near me has a pretty good makeup selection. I don't buy much ds makeup, but when I do, it's usually cheapest there. The no cal one I got had other scents and came in shower gels too. You must check out those bath things though and then report back! :icon_chee

Incase anyone is interested, I have a brand bew bottle of Bath and body works mango mandarin body spray. I'll sell it for half price.

PM me if you're interested

I haven't tried any BBW products but have tried Simply Basic and I like it. The Life spin off products are so so with me.
