BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 From the Disney Parks blog... A Reimagined Basin Reopens at Downtown Disney at Walt Disney World Resortposted on April 16th, 2012 by Jennifer Fickley-Baker, Social Media ManagerCheck out this shopping list: Almonds, cranberry, vanilla, oatmeal, honey, and sea salt. No, we’re not making cookies – those are just some of the natural ingredients used to create the fresh-cut soaps available at Basin, the bath and beauty shop at Downtown Disney at Walt Disney World Resort.Basin recently reopened after a refresh that included the addition of an oversized sink where as many as eight guests can simultaneously try out the all-natural salt body scrubs. The new Basin centerpiece is topped with a Mickey Mouse that was carved from a 250-pound block of soap.Here’s a tour through the refreshed location:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvOglVggoZw Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 I'm not supposed to give a rat's a$$ about that place, right? Looks like one of those stores where I find a bench outside to people watch while INC looks around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
we3peas 12 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 DD and I went last Friday to DTD and went in to the new Basin. I love their new sinks wish I had them in my bathroom. The place feels emptier though.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As if sitting there looking smug was going to make us shop any faster!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doodlebug....Cherie 461 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Ill be on a bench too. Looks nice but the smells from that place give me a headache. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Retired & Tired (Judy) 90 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I don't like the smells either. Bothers my allergies. But I have been known :laugh: to visit the shop in the Grand Floridian when I go there to get my hair done. I have bought several of the broken pieces of the soaps and I enjoy them. They are cheap that way too. lolKen stays away from that place too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Ya know it's weird, I love that kinda stuff, but prefer to have it done for me!! I love paying for spas and facials, but for stuff at home, I get in the shower, knock off the yuck and that's about it. So buying stuff at those stores is just not my style.
