Next time you are in DtD check out Basin!

**WishUponAStar** · 03-09-2008

I never really bothered too much in this predominantly soap/bath store but they have some AWESOME stuff. Basin is located behind Ghirardelli, next to the Arribas Brothers crystal shop. If you are in Disneyland it's right near Napolini & Jamba Juice. I got 4 products there on my last trip that ROCK!!!!

1) Dr. Spot!!! They sell this soap that REALLY removes stains so impressively! I got a grease stain off one of Daniel's shirts, spaghetti sauce off a pink sweater of mine & it even helped with a pet stain when Emma was sick

This stuff ROCKS! It comes in a little bar & comes with instuctions how to use it properly,

2) Tea Tree facial soap. If you have ANY sort of complextion tendencies like uneven skintones (I get really blotchy sometimes), slight acne, etc. this stuff is great & it doesn't leave your skin dry.

3) MICKEY MOUSE soap!!! Cute, colorful glycerin soap with cute Mickey heads embedded in it! LOVE IT!

4) SHAMPOO BARS! Possibly the most sudsy, tingly, yummiest stuff I've ever used to clean my hair! LOVE IT!

Thanks Jess for the info! I was going to check it out last week but I was with the friend from .......... Well you know where

My family fell in love with Basin a couple of years ago. I don't know why we always passed it up but I did. My son goes nuts wanting so many bath bombs. My DH like the salt crystal thingy and it lasts forever. I love everything in there and the people who work there are sooo nice.

I know!!! And how amazing does everything smell? I am surprised I still have a functioning nose after sniffing everything!

I know, the store smeel sso good. I don't know how I walked by all those years and didn't go it because even 10 feet away it smells good.

Can you imagine working there?

I love this store!! My hands always feels so yucky at WDW, but I love to go in there and use their sinks and products. My hands always feel so much better!

tiggerlover1971 · 03-09-2008

Uh I forgot to go in there yesterday

MickeyMcFizzle · 03-10-2008

I love basin too!

gemdisney · 03-10-2008

I have allergies and I can't go into places like Yankee Candles, Do you think the smells would bother me? Is it over powering or just sudtly sweet? I love bath stuff.

softychik · 03-10-2008

We usually walk right by it but I guess we will have to stop this year

unamadreditre · 03-10-2008

I could wander around Basin and Sephora all day long.

I could get lost is Sephora!

At DTD at the DLR, they are right across from each other!

WDW Rules · 03-10-2008

I wonder if that Tea Tree soap would be good for me. I have skin allergies and usally use oatmeal soap. I'll have to check it out. I too walk right past it thinking I couldn't use anything in there. I'm like gemdisney. I just walk past places like that and I start itching.

We went in Basin last trip and it was fantastic- some of the lotions are so beautiful and they smell divine.
