It's always a great experience at this store! I was here recently to buy fragrance refills & Aromatherapy pillow mist. I had several coupons to use. The employee (forgot to get her name!) was extremely pleasant, professional, & helpful. She made sure that I got the best value for the coupons. Maribel & the staff are consistently helpful & professional. It's truly a pleasure shopping at this store. I'm looking forward to my next visit!! read more

Came in to pick up a few items for my up coming trip. Yvette greeted me as I entered the store. The store had just opened and they were restocked a few of the shelves. The store had a lot of the fall fragrances out. If you are looking for gift giving ideas? Bath and body works has a lot of gift bag stuff full of goodies. I always get my Air fresheners for my vehicle and hotel air fresheners from Bath and body works. The fragrances last longer and really fill the room. The deals are great! Thank you to the ladies in the store on September 1, 2026. read more

Bath & Body Works located in the Manhattan Village shopping center in Manhattan Beach, CA is an absolute treat to visit (and smell)! Ready to take your sense of smell on a journey of a lifetime? Then please, walk right into Bath & Body Works! This mall houses a medium sized B&BW location, but with the same punch as some of the biggest locations I have been to. I have never seen a single unsmiling face from staff, which really makes me believe that they are happy and enjoying their jobs, which means a lot to me. After all, no one really wants to visit a business where the employees seem miserable. Hi, welcome, here's a basket, please let me know if I can assist you in anyway.... I heard all of this from different staff just on my last visit alone. So welcoming! The store is well stocked with all their newest scents but also has plenty of the good ol' smells on hand, as well. I love that (secret hint) this location usually seems to get extra of limited edition goods. (I'm looking at YOU Halloween & Christmas) But sshhhh!!!! Don't tell. The ambiance of this location is very chill, with the noise level being low. It's plenty comfortable with sound that you do not need to raise your voice to have a conversation with your shopping partner or to ask questions of staff. There are no stairs or elevators needed to enter this store, making it very handicap friendly. There are also handicap assistive doors on the entrances to the mall, adding extra assistance. There are no televisions located in the store, therefore no needed subtitles. Handicap parking is located near several entrances to the mall. read more

Bath & Body Works - Bath & Body Works located in the Manhattan Village in Manhattan Beach, CA - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

This Bath and Body Works at Manhattan Village is my least favorite location. While I was trying products in store, an employee approached me and rudely told me that what I was using were not samples. The interaction felt dismissive. When I apologized, she made me feel uncomfortable with her glaring look. I do understand there are store policies but I feel there is also a more polite and proper way to handle situations if a customer makes a mistake. read more

Came in here looking for a ton of good Halloween themed soap, preferably of the foam variety. This location didn't disappoint at all. The crew was very nice and collectively showed me all types of options as far as phone and a Halloween theme goes. This location is in full swing as far as all things Halloween goes, and one added bonus: it smells soooo good. read more

Bath & Body Works - A bag full of goodies! - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

Smallish store but that's fine with me. I tend to get overwhelmed by large selections so the boutique-style size is perfect. Customer service is always great. Cashiers are super friendly and do a great job of packaging my items. My go-to items are the candles and hand soaps. I like to stock up during their holiday sales. read more

Bath & Body Works - Always the best customer services - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

I bought $62 worth of hand soaps, 8 in total and 2 other items and politely asked the cashier if they have cellophanes and ribbons. She said "no we don't have any."And then i hear the other cashier next to her ask another customer "did you want some ribbons?". And i saw bunch of ribbons in their drawer! I was like, this girl can't be lying in my face! And on top of that, she didn't even double bag my stuff knowing the products are heavy, i had to ask another employee from the store if i can get another bag. I can afford to buy wrapping stuff and i understand if there's none left. Just don't effing lie in my face! I clearly heard and saw. One star is for the products and the other star is for the kind employee with short hair helping out around the store. Thank you for coming to my TED talk. read more

Bath & Body Works - All i get is ONE bag? Really? I had to ask another employee to give me an extra one. - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

Everytime I come here, the staff always welcome me and ask if I need help. They are so nice and informative. They don't stand around either. They are always cleaning the shelves and the tables. There are about 4 registers so when there is a line to check out, it goes pretty fast. They also have a reward program which givea you free items. This company has the beat scents. I always get compliments on my soaps from here. The candles are also my favorite because they actually smell up the room/house. Parking isn't fun at this location as the store is inside a mall. read more

Bath & Body Works - She didn't give me the candle sale price!! - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

4/16 . When I walked into the /store, I had to ask for help as the woman with the black eyelashes was on the phone . The other one at the cashier Jessica was rude , and non chalant about cashing on my rewards . read more

All I can say is Ask for Maribel ! Such a sweet & helpful lady . I was having brain farts and she came in clutch ! Thank you so much

Once again I went to pick up my order hoping and praying it would go smooth. Not at all if I could give a negative star this store would -10. The manager Maribel is rude and has no sense of customer service. She is beyond rude worst then terrible. How she still has a job is beyond me. read more

As the mall was closing (and store still with several customers shopping) I entered Bath and Body Works with my 4 year old son. An aggressive sales woman came stomping at me 'we are closed you need to leave'. I said 'the door wasn't locked so I thought you were open' and she physically put herself between me and the store as if I was going to shop despite being told they were closed. 'No you have to leave, no we are closed, no' she kept repeating. I get it being Sunday and ready to go home but this is Manhattan Beach not Detroit. Manners and customer service go a long way. read more

The store is great but I love to shop B&BW online. Same sales, maybe an additional sale or 3 and I think the selection is much better and often ships free or some other special discount like 20-30% off for spending $25. The flashback fragrance sale is one of my faves, $3-4 for a bottle...that's sometimes half the regular cost. Since I'm not a shopper, I stock up and there's nothing like receiving a UPS box filled with your special selections. Shower gels, candles, hand lotion...even shampoo and conditioner. One of my fav purchases is pillow mist, Lavender Sleep is the most pleasant fragrance in which to doze off. Even he notices when I don't spritz the pillows! The semi annual sale is on right now in stores and online. I'll bite the bullet and will visit the store to try the new fragrances, but will make my large purchase online. read more

I just left this store and this the 3rd time in a row I've had the most negative experience with a sales associate named Emily. She is extremely aggressive and unhelpful. I asked her about the new popular fragrances that I saw on tiktok as I was extremely excited to purchase some. When I asked her about them she had the WORST attitude and told me that they do not sell them in store and it was only online and that I was lucky if I could even find them there. I told her that I saw someone purchasing some in a store. She told me that was only in some stores but that they didn't have them there. I understand if you didn't have them there but please don't misinform people and tell them they are ONLY online. Also - this is not the first experience I've had with Emily making me uncomfortable and wanting to leave. Even my boyfriend was excited to purchase something with me but after the rude encounter I had he told me he didn't have any interest in purchasing from that store if they were going to treat me like that. I've worked in customer service and I know better than to ever speak to someone the way she has to me. Good luck having her as an employee and making sales goals. read more

Love waking in here because it always smells so good. Attentive workers always helpful and I love how this place is always so organized. Unfortunately, at times they don't have products you might want but they are more than willing to assist you. My go-to's are sweet pea and warm vanilla sugar! read more

After a long day working at the hospital and going t to the Apple store, I stumbled across Bath and body Works here in Manhattan Beach to find a beautiful candle to impress my husband and I ran across Britney in the store.

First time here and when I walked in I wanted to know what deals or specials they had, but the young employee girls starred me down and walked right past me and starting talking to each other. I didn't think much of it. Maybe that's just the customer service here I thought. As I was smelling the fragrances a few customers walked in all white people. They were immediately greeted and they started telling them about the special deals. That's when I thought that maybe race was an issue. Then more people came in all white and again all greeted and helped. My cashier was also extremely rude very young Hispanic female and by the way I am Hispanic myself. I asked her about the deals and if I could join their rewards program. And she literally did not want to help me. Gave me the biggest attitude. Then I came back because she charged me something that wasn't mine and again she was at the front starring me down with a mad face as I walked in and no greetings. Then as I was leaving she was literally talking to an older white lady in the nicest tone and explaining to her the deals. Came in 09/08 12pm purchase. Cashier #3478805. I kinda expected this to happen since it's located in Manhattan Beach. RACIST STORE. Will have to contact corporate if they even care. It's so messed up. I never thought this would happen to me. I treat everybody the same regardless of race. So disappointed and bummed out. ): read more

I love going to this store but unfortunately I had a really bad experience with the manager (I forgot her name but it started with a Y). Me and a friend went in on Tuesday, July 23rd around 2-3pm and got followed by the manager. It started when we walked in and laughed about a candle. We weren't trying to be obnoxious, loud, or cause a scene, but it obviously left the manager in a bad mood. She started following us around the store, and giving us looks. Meanwhile we're just browsing and not causing any scenes or being too loud. She told her other coworkers about us, and how we were "misusing products" and not using testers. All we were doing was sniffing candles and hand sanitizer, like everyone does. I see everyone doing it, as it's just what you do when you go into bath and body works. We weren't using any products that were not testers, as that's disrespectful to do so. While we were about to buy hand sanitizer, we were sniffing some to see what we liked. The manager (who was already following us) came up and told us "Guys you need to make sure you're only using testers". Mind you, we were not using the products at all. It's not what she said, it's how she said it. She told it to us like we were children and she was lecturing us when we were doing nothing wrong. It was just a very condescending tone and it wasn't nice at all. If she was nice about it we wouldn't have cared. We're grown adults and we do not deserve to be talked to like that, followed, and looked down upon. We told a worker there and overall we just got a rude vibe from the manager. I didn't want to be rude about it and I hate causing a scene, but I don't tolerate being followed for no reason and being talked to rudely. We left without buying anything. It kind of felt like she expected us to steal as well, which was pretty disrespectful because we were legitimately customers. I'm really disappointed because this is my first time ever dealing with something like this. It's also sad to see that there's other reviews with stories about rude employees. Will not be going back until there's better service with a different manager. read more

The manager here is completely rude and such an awful human being. I just needed to exchange a scent due to the fragrance smelling like pure alcohol and she made me feel so uncomfortable front of other guests. I hope she gets written up from upper management. She's a terrible repression of the store. Will not be coming back. read more

Louie was phenomenal. We felt like VIP and we're treated with exceptional service. Not only did the service exceed expectations, he was extremely informative with all the products and Halloween collection. Thanks Louie! read more

I placed my order online and was too cheap to pay for shipping. I chose a pick up location and arrived to pick up my purchases. I pulled into the designated parking spot and called the store to let them know I arrived. The wait time was not long and I was greeted by the nicest young ladies who brought my order to my care. Thank you BBW, great selection and great staff! read more

Walked in and not greeted. Ok whatever not the biggest issue. I then walked past two associates gossiping. Ok so not the most professional but I get it they aren't making top dollar or probably any crazy commissions. After 5 minutes of looking at walls of soaps trying to find a specific type , "lavender foam" as I only saw the regular type on display. I Looked around to see if anyone could help but all associates were in the corner leading to their back office space chatting about their personal plans. I was so annoyed I left before I could even find the soap I was looking for but not before I walked past another associate on her cell phone with her head down. Not even a thank you for coming in or come again. I get no one wants to work on rainy days and if the shop is empty fine be as unprofessional as you would like but you can still easily say hello or goodbye when someone walks thru your doors. Have only bought via website before during the holidays and after this experience any future spending will only be online. This was on 3/14/23 in the afternoon. read more

Awesome as usual..great service.. great deals.. great scents.. located in a great location.. live BBW

I went into this store seeking some soaps and body wash products. It is a bit intimidating with the vast selection of products available. I was approached by Arcelia who offered to assist me as I attempted to select which products would take me to the promised land of cleanliness. She was a superstar, very patient, informative, and friendly. Next time I venture into this enchanted world of all things fragrant I will be sure to look for her to be my tour guide. read more

Great customer service! Staff is amazing and personable. Especially Arcellia, she is so personable and made me feel at home! She should get employee of the month! read more

I only shop here for their hand soaps, I am absolutely addicted to them and they have a lot of scents to choose from. This is the smallest one I have been to and luckily they are never very busy. The customer service is great, ladies are all very sweet and helpful. My favorite's are Black Cherry, Meyers Lemon, and Watermelon Lemonade. They usually have great sales on these and sometimes clearance prices. read more

Bath & Body Works - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

My experience was ridiculously GREAT here. They definitely lured me in with holiday scents and I had my boyfriend with me as well, who didn't bother stopping by here ever. As it was his first time, he's never had so much fun sniffing candles in a store before haha. The manager was roaming around making us feel so welcomed and encouraging her favorite holiday scents. The layout of the store is special, especially because they are a "White Barn" store, meaning they have more accents to offer than usual Bath & Body Works. I was going to stop by Williams Sonoma across the mall but I was so overly satisfied with my experience here, I didn't even bother. The service is SUPERB and I never bothered going to bath & body works, but I definitely will make an effort to visit this location. It was great, is it weird of me to say I want to go back and sniff more candles for another hour of my life? read more

Shout out to Louie, Maria, Renee and the cashier my bad I didn't get her name. I came in with no clue what to get as gifts, my mom is on FaceTime trying to help but not, I ask Renee to help me match a soap and a lotion... knew the assignment. I needed a scent to replace my old one, Louie and Maria.... Knew the assignment. I left with more things for me and gifts are done. They all were amazing! Thank you! read more

I've never written a negative review in my life however today my mom and I went to the semi-annual sale and when we got to pay, the cashier named Louie was extremely RUDE to us. We asked him simple questions and he was aggressive in his tone when we asked about the prices. He didn't even hand us our bags. All other lady employees were very kind and helpful especially Wanda! read more

I like the products but this place is a bit disorganized and the employees do not go above and beyond. The lines are awful and expect to spend 20 minutes at check out. The online order pick up person is never around so this method doesn't make the process agile, you have to end up getting in line anyway. read more

Hard to write a bad review about a place that the fumes from all the scents reach out the door and beckon you to come in! HAND SANITIZERS and CONCENTRATED ROOM SPRAYS are my thing in here! read more

Great customer service here.. was greeted upon entering, and was asked if I needed any assistance. The employees were friendly and available if I needed any help. read more

Came today the bf got the two candles for 25.00 deal. The gal who helped us was friendly. The store has so many strong scents it can give you a headache. I do like the sleep body wash and lotions, as I buy my stuff online when they have sales. The store is on the small side compared to most, but still has a good selection of product. Cute little mall, with the important stores to shop in. Would come back if in the area. read more

Great location as you don't have to go in circles for parking, unless they're are a lot of folks going to the California pizza Kitchen! Great selection and lots of choice compared to many other locations I have been to. They also have great deals that the girls will inform you about. In, out got the flower plugs and amazing floral incense for the house. Happy :) read more
