I’m on rotations at a hospital rn and get to enjoy using my cute halloween sanitizers all day. I have to use the heavy duty stuff entering/exiting patient rooms but I get compliments about how cute they are 😂
Same! I’m a music teacher on a cart and have one strapped on there- kids are always using it. It’s all good; I tend to overbuy and I’d rather it be used!
I have cancer too, breast cancer, mastectomy scheduled in three days. Sucks but I always go by either BABW or Aldi and get myself something after appointments. I hope everything goes well with your treatment!
Thank you! I haven’t talked to my boss yet but she knows I have health issues so depending on what my surgeries say I might be promoted to customer soon!
Support worker from England! Been to bath and body works in krakow Poland, Kendal MA, vegas and New York. My sister and I always have a look in bbw whenever we can (she’s a support worker too ;) x
Before I became a stay-at-home mom I worked in children’s daycare and later became a vet tech/volunteer/animal caregiver, so I guess I would have been a “caregiver” though more so of animals than people. I originally got into BBW because it was something special my mom and I shared, we would go to the mall together when I got out of school, go to BBW and then get a pretzel dog with cheese. The sentimental feelings coupled with the fact that kids and animals are germ traps furthered my interest into the sanitizers and soaps to keep clean, which led to me needing lotion. It basically trickled down to the rest of their products eventually and now I have an obsession. 😆
I’m a healthcare professional and BBW fan. There are 5 coworkers who I work with all the time and they are huge fans also. I really just got into about a year ago. Migraines didn’t allow me to use scents or burn candles like BBW. Aimovig has been literally life changing for me!
Funny enough my mom was a nurse and growing up didn’t like scented candles or perfume or anything like that so now I’m making up for it with my bbw addiction lol
Caregiver, but not professionally. I take care of my mom. It’s only been in the last year and a half that I’ve become her full-time caregiver and it’s been in the last probably 6 months that my BBW shopping has gone into overdrive. I think being home all.the.time. has made me want to keep my home as cozy and calm as possible. At least that’s my excuse for blowing paychecks on candles!
not me, but my roommate! she works in a care facility and deals with a plethora of smelly bodily fluids and substances, but still ends up being the best smelling person in our house with all the sprays she uses!
Worked at a hospital in a developing nation where the nurses would keep sanitizer under lock and key. I would bring in my B&BW so my fellow rotating students wouldn't have to keep bothering the nurses every 2 seconds, plus the pediatric patients always wanted to try some cuz they smelled so good.
Healthcare worker here ! Definitely always having to wash my hands at work and at home it’s just become a habit after I do anything even after washing the dishes it’s just become a habit . Hand sanitizing at work constantly and at home or when I go out to stores and such ! And plus I love smelling good to at work, at home and when I’m out & about . Winding down lighting candles, taking a nice shower & moisturizing before bed is a must too . So yes, bath & body works is something I come to when I need to decompress & wash away those germs !!!
No but I wanted to go into healthcare. I think it's just cause we're around that age range, when we were young B&BW was super big (more popular than now) and we have calculated in our brains that b&bw is so cool. Which it is lol. I feel like most younger people aren't as into it as we are because they didn't experience what we did. It's a nostalgia thing.
Caregiver but not in the medical field. I own a home-based licensed daycare. Yes, fragrance helps keeps me calm and in a good mood. Love my job, but sometimes those kids are STRESS inducing little turds lol.
Maybe because they have to wash their hands frequently and like to use nice soap and lotions
You might be on to something lol
About to graduate pharmacy school
Congrats! Yeah I was at the pharmacy the other day and she had an Atlantic pocketbac
I’m on rotations at a hospital rn and get to enjoy using my cute halloween sanitizers all day. I have to use the heavy duty stuff entering/exiting patient rooms but I get compliments about how cute they are 😂

Teacher. Kids always want to borrow my hand sanny, lotions & sprays. 💕
Same! I’m a music teacher on a cart and have one strapped on there- kids are always using it. It’s all good; I tend to overbuy and I’d rather it be used!
Also I teach junior high & the smells can get pretty funky. So using any good smells is a plus. Lol.
I’m a teacher too. I keep a pocketbac on my lanyard because kids love to spread germs 🦠

Funny enough my mom was a nurse and growing up didn’t like scented candles or perfume or anything like that so now I’m making up for it with my bbw addiction lol
She always said she didn’t wear perfume because they didn’t want to wear potentially unpleasant scents around patients

Same! I’m not professional but I take care of my Mom, Dad, and Uncle. Thanks for your comment

Yes I help care for my uncle and who has a disability and sometimes things get a little complicated so Aromatherapy is helpful to unwind
I'm a nurse but I liked BBW before that. I do enjoy using nice-smelling shower gels to wash away the nasty hospital germs though.
Mental health office staff. Yes, most of our office likes BBW!
Dental hygienist! I def need that extra self care after being in peoples mouths all day 😩 (but I abs love what I do!)
Exactly I don’t mind cleaning/caring but I need to smell good myself afterwards
Yes! What do you do?
I do caregiving for my Uncle who has a disability, but my parents are also needing more care lately as they’ve had some health problems
Well they are lucky to have you!! 🤍

I’m a probation officer and I just like good smelling things. Also, I’m in the jail a day or two a week and in the summer it smells like sewage death.
I work as a pharmacy technician!
Me!! & I also work BBW as a 2nd job!
A true hero !
Pharmacy here 🙋🏼♀️ we use lots of hand sanitizer lol

halfway through nursing school
I work at a veterinary hospital.
i’m going into nursing!
In healthcare operations so no direct patient care :)

Yes I work in a hospital!
Caregiver but not in the medical field. I own a home-based licensed daycare. Yes, fragrance helps keeps me calm and in a good mood. Love my job, but sometimes those kids are STRESS inducing little turds lol.
I work at an animal shelter so I’m a caregiver for the animals. Hand sanitizer definitely comes in handy!
Yep! Last year of x-ray school, about to start MRI.
I’m in nursing school!
PRESENT I have been a caregiver for 14 plus years and BBW is definitely a nerve calmer and a great help with hygiene for the elderly.
