They kinda snuck the lemon one in there on us. The packaging looks very vibrant. I just wish they had brought the Lemon Infusions back for summer, since I can't really work w/ mentha bodycare. Oh well, I guess I can hope they bring those back during the holiday.
I am hoping they come out with Mentha body care with the scents from the holidays. I think it was the soda fountain collection. Vanilla Mentha would be great.
I cant wait to smell the summer ones. I think they all sound good. I have the mentha mini lip glosses from last summer that had Lime, Orange, and Grapefruit. They all smell great, so I am expecting the new collection to smell similar.

I love the Lime one. To me it smelled the best by far in body wash. The other ones didnt smell that great mixed with mint, at least to me. Now the lip shines smelled completely different from the body wash. I loved the Orange and Raspberry the best in those.

yes, the lime is my fav. in the body wash. it smells like a mojito good enough to drink, but the raspberry is my fav in the gloss. i wish they had lotions as well the shampoo and conditioner is amazing and i cant wait to use more in the summer to cool my scalp LOL. it's on sale 2 for $10!

I the raspberry lip gloss too. I got that one at my COB store about two weeks ago as they always have new items out early. As soon as I started using it I was hoping for a lotion as well.
I got the lime mentha wash free w/coupon last night, and I do not like the scent in the body wash format, esp. once in use in the shower. It does smell nice straight from the bottle, but as I was using it in the shower, the "lime" part smelled sort of like plastic. However, the scent that lingered in my bathroom afterwards was very nice. So, go figure. Also, the gel is very tingly.
I do like the lime mentha in the lip gloss form. The raspberry mentha lip gloss is nice too, but not as nice as I expected.
I smelled these today & in every scent, the mentha note overpowered the fruit. I think the Orange one had the strongest fruit scent to it though. Again, I think the concept of this line missed the mark.
I was so excited about the new Mentha scents, but I agree with Megan, the mentha part definitely overpowers the fruit notes. I could hardly distinguish them from the regular mentha scent.
I love the packaging a lot, and I love the vibrant colours they come in. I may still pick some up at one point.
On another note, I saw some cute Bigelow apothecary jars, and there were also some black t-shirts with different words in white on them on the same table.
I love the packaging on just about everything Bigelow puts out! I sniffed these from the tubes yesterday - I agree with some of the previous posters that the lime and mint go best together. I'll be picking up one of the lime body washes for summer (which hasn't started here yet - it's been cold and rainy for the past month in PA)!
I absolutely LOVED these body washes. The scents were perfect to me and they lathered up perfectly. I haven't seen them in the stores since the SAS started, however.
Here are a couple questions for those who work at BBW:
Are the Mentha body washes discontinued, or are they just putting them on hold until the SAS ends? Thanks in advance.
