If you've seen me wandering around the Big Apple with a dazed look, don't worry, I'm just daydreaming about Savannah. My recent three-day getaway to the "Hostess City" has been on my mind since I returned to New York a few weeks ago. Thanks to my friends at Bath Junkie, I've been able to recapture the essence of my low country adventure through the magic of scent.
Me at the new Bath Junkie store in Soho with mom and daughter founders, Judy Zimmer and Jocelyn Murray.
I had the pleasure of spending a few hours last Friday with the Bath Junkie founders, dynamic mother-daughter duo Judy Zimmer and Jocelyn Murray, at their new New York City store in Soho. The NYC store has only been open a short while but New York Magazine just named them as "Best Beauty Store." When the conversation turned to Savannah, Jocelyn suggested creating a scent inspired by my trip. Of course, when I think of Georgia the first thing that comes to mind is peaches. And then I think of peach cobbler. Voila, and my first custom scent, Spicy Georgia Peach was born. A blend of peaches, buttercream, and cinnamon; Spicy Georgia Peach is a sexy balance of sweet and spicy.
Look for more custom Bath Junkie scents inspired by my favorite places! Trish Rubin, Brand Manager for Bath Junkie says, "Savvy women unite. Follow the lead of Wanda Mann as she travels in style and with smart sophistication! We can't resist! Choosing the right fragrance that creates the memory of Wanda's every junket is Bath Junkie's pleasure. Bath Junkie's unique blend for Wanda, "Spicy Georgia Peach", captures the elegance of her Savannah journey. Wanda's travel memories live in luxury baths and lotions long after she returns home to NYC. We can't wait to theme Wanda's next journey with scents that embody a world of fragrance and her vibrant personality!"
Yummy! Bath Junkie mixes up my body butter and scrub with Spicy Georgia Peach. I opted to add a dash of color to the scrub.
Bath Junkie launched in 1996, franchised in 2000 and now has 70 locations with more scheduled to open soon. The beauty of Bath Junkie is that their products can be customized. With more than 200 fragrances to choose from the possibilities are endless. Shampoo, conditioner, lotion, scrub, air fragrance, home cleanser, and even dishwashing liquid can be infused with the aroma combination of your choice. You can even choose your favorite tint. Safe for even the most sensitive skin, Bath Junkie products are never tested on animals and most are paraben and SLS free.
Think of Bath Junkie as a drop-in spa where you can pick up a tiny indulgence to pamper yourself at home. Guests at my launch party on March 13 will receive a gift of Bath Junkie bubbling bath crystals scented with Spicy Georgia Peach. So if you haven't RSVP'd yet what are you waiting for!
