Bath & Body Works | Summer 2 Semi-Annual Sale 2025 - 6/16 (Online Sneak Peek 6/15)

 

Bath & Body Works | Summer 2 Semi-Annual Sale June 16, 2025

Sharing some reminders for the upcoming Semi-Annual Clearance Sale.

Sales Pricing for Sale - HERE

Beginning with the Christmas in July Capsule Collection I wanted to point out a few things to prevent any disappointment when you shop the sale.  I have been getting a few DM's asking about the scents we will see, and are the items Christmas 2024 (or other years leftovers)?  While we may see a straggler of Christmas 2024 SAS clearance leftover, THIS NEW Concept Collection is not that.


The Team at Bath and Body Works put together a fun theme of Christmas in July products centered around a summery beach feel with a select group of holiday characters.

Please Note: Vanilla Bean Noel and Twisted Peppermint are not included (as far as I have seen) in this release.  Those were the two I was asked the most about.  But no worries, November 1st, I am sure we will see them release in their new Holiday 2025 packaging!

Scent Notes: I know the duckie is coming for sale, but the other scent may be part of the Fall release.  We could end up seeing it, so I added it here.

AIR SCENT INFUSERS (scented cardstock)

Duckie Shape Cucumber Melon

Onyx Forest






Scent Notes: I grabbed the lip gloss, scrub, and mask at last week's sale pricing of $3.95 to try these, no lip balm was found in my store, or I would have grabbed that instead.  I tried the mask, and the scent is that of a creamsicle, but there is a note...a feel of the sharpness of the citrus that I am not loving.   Where I usually love all of their lip collections, this one is a one and done kind of purchase, with thoughts of returning the new, unopened gloss and scrub.  Swipe it in store for yourself to try it.

🌞LIP CARE Orange Creamsicle

Lip Gloss $8.95

Lip Scrub $10.95

Lip Mask $10.95








Scent Notes:  While the scents may be great, I am not a real fan of the packaging on this collection.  It's a grouping of black- and cream-colored lines and swirls...geometric "here is a quickie label because it's a bought for sale collection"...kind of feel for me.

Scent Notes: Having never gone to a concert in my youth but having grown up in the 70's/80's the New Concert Nights Wallflower scent notes did make me laugh.  I have not yet checked out the fragrance for myself, (and I will) because I am curious what I missed out on all of those years ago. HA HA. I wonder, is there going to be a matching scentportable refill, you know, for the car ride home, after the concert?

Scent Notes: Returning in their original (or pretty close to it) packaging, I suspect this collection to be very popular and sell down quickly.  Fingers crossed that the company realizes we LOVE our Fine Fragrance Mists, and they are ALWAYS the first thing to sell out on days one and two of sale...so extras of those need to be in stock.
