Your Guide to Finding the Perfect Accessory for Your Hand Sanitizer at B&BW
As we live in the age of hand sanitizer, it’s clear that Bath & Body Works wanted to make our new normal as stylish and exciting as possible. Their collection of hand sanitizer holders adds a fun, fashionable touch to our daily hand hygiene routine. With so many options to choose from, it can be tricky finding the perfect sanitizer holder that suits your style and needs. As a B&BW superfan, I’ve tried out my fair share of their holders and wanted to share my thoughts to help you discover your new favorite sanitizer accessory.

Bath & Body Works offers sanitizer holders in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and materials so you can coordinate with your #aesthetic. The most popular styles are clip-ons and wristlets.
Clip-on holders come in cute designs like wildflowers, tropical prints, faux leather, glittery unicorns, atlantis sea creatures, monogram letters, embroidered strawberries and more. They conveniently attach to your purse, backpack or gym bag. I prefer the sturdier acrylic and metallic clip-ons over the plastic styles which can sometimes crack.
For wristlet holders, you can choose between fabric patterns or plastic bangles. The fabric wristlets often have a zipper pouch to hold cards or cash too. I love rocking the sequin mermaid or flamingo wristlets! The plastic bangle style slip right over your wrist like a cuff bracelet.
If your hands are usually full, go for a strap holder that can wrap around your neck. These come in materials like faux leather, glitter, sequins and wood beads. Or level up to the holder keychains which look like mini purses and attach to your keys for easy access.
Beyond that, B&BW also offers basic plastic hard case holders, plush stuffed animal holders with a clip, crystal studded holders and more. No matter your unique style, there’s a holder to match!
Pricing and Seasonal Options
Most standard sanitizer holders at Bath & Body Works retail between $4-$10 depending on the size and materials. Keychain holders are on the pricier side around $16-$20.
Around the holidays, you can find specialty themed holders like snow globes, Santa sacks and glittery reindeer for winter. Carved pumpkins and ghosts come out for Halloween. Summer brings mermaids, sunglasses and fruit designs. The themed holders are slightly higher priced from $12-$20.
B&BW also drops limited edition collections a few times a year with iconic prints like Hello Kitty, Disney and photo realistic food. These trendy holders sell out quickly and can resell for a lot on sites like Mercari and eBay. Definitely snag them fast if you have your eye on any limited edition pieces!
Fit for All Your Sanitizing Needs

A major pro about Bath & Body Works’ holders is that they are designed to accommodate full size 8oz sanitizer bottles, unlike some competitors whose holders only fit small 2oz bottles. This means you don’t have to buy special bottles to refill your holder. I can easily use my favorite scents from any brand.
Most holders have an open bottom so you simply slide in a bottle and pull it out to replace when empty. Some styles have a plastic strap that screws open to insert a bottle then clicks securely shut. Either way, the bottles are held snugly in place but still removable for refills.
A few of the smaller keychain styles only fit 2oz mini bottles. And for the plush stuffed holders, you’ll need to reuse the same bottle sized for that specific design. When shopping for a new holder, I always make sure to check the product details to confirm it fits 8oz bottles.
High Quality and Trendy Materials
Bath & Body Works really steps up the sanitizer holder game with so many options made from quality materials like acrylic, glitter, sequins, faux leather, velour, beads and crystals. They feel sturdy and luxe.
I especially love their opalescent ombre acrylic holders. And the quilted faux leather wristlets look straight off the runway! The embellished holders with rhinestones and beads add just the right amount of sparkle and shine to any outfit. Even their plastic holders have detailed molding and fun prints.
Compared to basic metal clips you find at drugstores, the designs from B&BW are much more stylish and interesting. Their holders are built to last and stay looking great even with daily use. I’ve washed many of mine without any wear and tear.
Fun Add-Ons to Find
My favorite part about shopping the sanitizer holders at Bath & Body Works is discovering the special details that make each one unique.
Many feature additional convenient functions like an attachable key ring or phone stand. Some have mirrors or lights built in. You can find holders with built-in storage pouches to hold a few essentials like cards, bills or lip balm. There are also holders designed specifically for the car with phone grips and vent clips to mount in your vehicle.
If you want some extra flair, look for rhinestone embellishments, tassels, fur pompoms, embroidered patches and glitter galore! I love when my holder has a pop of sparkle or texture.
For practicality, look for holders made of antimicrobial materials to keep germs at bay. And reusable cotton strap covers are great for easily washing away any buildup. With so many options, you can definitely find a holder with all the bells and whistles you want.
Matching Scents and Holders

One of my favorite parts of Bath & Body Works’ collection is that they offer matching hand sanitizer scents and holders to create a cohesive look.
For instance, their Stress Relief line has eucalyptus scented sanitizer and holders with corresponding nature inspired designs in shades of mint, grey and lavender. I love having a perfectly coordinated set!
Other matching collections include the floral White Tea and Sage, fruity Strawberry Pound Cake, the preppy Pink Pineapple Sunrise and more. The scents and colors tie together beautifully. It makes the experience of sanitizing your hands that much more pleasant.
B&BW also has seasonal matching collections like Frosted Cranberry with red and white snowflake holders for winter and Paradise Coconut with tropical floral designs for summer.
I always try to snag a matching set to keep my look and aroma consistent! It’s an affordable way to feel like you have a luxury, designer experience.
Current Trending Styles
Bath & Body Works is always releasing new collections, so popular styles are constantly changing. Lately, I’ve noticed an uptick in faux leather holders in earthy neutrals and pastels, embroidered floral fabrics, wooden bead wristlets, and abstract acrylic prints.
The textured faux leather holders offer a softer look than standard plastic. And the bead wristlets are so easy to just slip on. Abstract patterns in acrylic add artsy flair.
For keychains, Lucite styles formed into jelly beans, olives and corn give a kitschy Y2K vibe. Crochet knit pouches also keep keys organized. And for necklace holders, freshwater pearl and seashell designs feel almost coastal grandmother chic.
In the world of TikTok and Instagram trends, Bath & Body Works stays on top of what’s hip. The diversity of their offerings means you can always find something on-trend no matter your personal taste.
New Releases to Watch For

One reason I’m so loyal to Bath & Body Works for my holder needs is that they are continuously releasing fresh new collections, unlike other brands that rarely change up their designs.
I’ve noticed B&BW tends to launch big new collections quarterly to match the start of new seasons in March, June, September and November. They also do smaller capsule releases almost monthly.
Following their social media accounts is the best way to stay on top of upcoming launches. Limited quantities sell out fast online and in stores, so I like to shop new releases as soon as they drop.
Some of their recent popular launches have been the Moonlight Path collection in serene lavenders and blues, the shimmering Disco collections in metallics, and the tropical Island Daydream pineapple prints.
Coming up, I have my eye out for rumored woodland fairy and mystic night collections! Bath & Body Works is always giving us something new to obsess over!
Online Convenience
The easiest way to browse and shop the full range of Bath & Body Works’ sanitizer holders is online through their website or mobile app.
You can filter and sort by category like wristlets, clips, keychains, etc. There is size and price filtering and you can also search by color, pattern or collection name which makes finding exactly what you want a breeze.
When you click on a holder the site shows suggested matching sanitizer scents and additional coordinating accessories like pouches or clips to create a whole look. The product photos are clear and zoom-able so you can see all the little details.
After filling your cart, shipping is free on orders $50+. One thing to note is that the inventory online is sold separately from stores and gets restocked at different times. So you can sometimes find hard-to-find holders online that are sold out at your local store.
I find shopping online much easier than sifting through accessories displays in stores hoping to spot new arrivals. Online, everything is right at your fingertips!
Return Policy Perks

Like all Bath & Body Works purchases, sanitizer holders are returnable to any location for a full refund or exchange within 90 days of purchase as long as you have the receipt. This return policy makes shopping hassle-free.
I like that I can buy a few holder options to try out at home and then easily swap out any that I don’t end up loving for something different. Returns are done quickly at the register without any fuss.
Exchanges for a different holder style or color are simple too. Online purchases can be returned by mail or in stores. So if a holder arrives damaged or I just change my mind, sending it back is simple.
Knowing returns are allowed makes me feel comfortable fully exploring all the holder varieties without worry that I’ll be stuck with one I regret. The peace of mind is extremely helpful!
Quality and Durability Can Vary
While Bath & Body Works does offer a great return policy, most of their holders don’t come with an extended guarantee or warranty beyond being able to return defective merchandise.
From experience, I’ve found the quality and durability can vary quite a bit depending on the specific style. Higher end acrylic, metal and faux leather holders feel very sturdy and last through years of use with no issues. But cheaper plastic styles may crack or break more easily.
Anything sequin, glitter or bead embellished also requires gentler care as decorations can loosen or shed after some wear and tear. And stuffed animal holders tend to get matted fur over time.
Reading online reviews helps determine if certain styles seem prone to damage based on others’ experiences. I try to go for simple, unembellished plastic or metal holders for maximum durability, though the more luxe and detailed holders are harder to resist!
Eco and Biodegradable Options

As Bath & Body Works shoppers become more sustainability conscious, I have noticed the selection of eco-friendly holders steadily growing over the past year.
Many of the faux leather and cork holders are now made from recycled materials. There are silicone styles free of BPA, phthalates and latex. And an increasing number of holders feature wooden beads, shells and natural materials versus plastic components.
They also sell reusable cotton strap covers to slip over holders and wash regularly to cut down on waste versus disposing of the entire holder when it gets dirty. I appreciate seeing Bath & Body Works’ efforts to create more responsible accessories.
While they still have a way to go, the sanitizer holder options are definitely getting greener. I try to choose these eco styles whenever possible to reduce my plastic consumption. Hopefully, the biodegradable trend only continues to expand!
What Reviewers Are Raving About
Looking at the reviews on the website, it’s clear Bath & Body Works shoppers have some definite holder favorites. The Quilted Rose Gold Faux Leather Clip Holder has nearly all 5-star ratings for its’ stylish design and easy clip functionality.
Shoppers say it looks far more expensive than it is. The Studded Faux Leather Strap Holder also gets glowing praise for adding a little edge while still being lightweight and comfortable.
For fabric holders, the Floral Fields Cotton Wristlet wins for its convenient zip pouch and bright, fun patterns. People love throwing this on quickly when running out.
The Beaded Boho Multi-Tassel Keychain Holder scores points for the eye-catching bohemian tassels while still being sturdy and securely holding sanitizer. When it comes to pleasing the masses, you can’t go wrong with any of these best-selling picks!
Hunting for Rare and Limited Edition Finds
Part of the fun of Bath & Body Works’ holders is tracking down special and limited edition pieces. The collaborations with brands like Disney, Hello Kitty and major pop culture movies like Star Wars and Harry Potter always draw die-hard fans and sell out instantly.
Being first in line for an exclusive new collection launch or scouring reseller sites to get your hands on sold out styles has become an exciting treasure hunt for B&BW collectors!
Some of the rarest finds that pop up are limited holiday pieces like the Nightmare Before Christmas collection from Halloween 2019 or regional exclusive holders from special locations like the Hawaii tropic designs. Even special packaging like gift boxes and bags get hoarded.
For major franchises like Star Wars, some designs can resell for up to $200! While I’d never pay those secondary market prices, I totally understand the obsession and thrill of snagging rare holders, especially collaborations! The chase is all part of being a Bath & Body Works fan.
Keep Your Holder Looking Like New
To get the most life out of my Bath & Body Works holders, I like to take good care of them. I try to avoid banging them around too much which can lead to cracks or scratches.
If they ever get sticky or dirty, I use a small amount of rubbing alcohol on a cotton round to refresh plastic and acrylic styles. For fabric holders, I spot clean stains with soap and water then let air dry.
You can wash removable fabric strap covers and embellishments like tassels and pom poms by hand or on delicate cycle to restore them to like new condition.
I also switch out my sanitizer scents regularly because strong fragrances like vanilla can stain light colored holders over time. And I store my collection in a dry, dust-free area to prevent any build up on the outside.
With a little routine maintenance, even my oldest holders still look fabulous years later! Treat your holders with care and they will be your trusty companions for the long haul.
Special Touches for Gift Giving

During the holidays or for birthdays, Bath & Body Works’ sanitizer holders make for amazing gifts! Not only are they cute and functional, but B&BW has lots of special packaging options to make your present extra festive.
All purchases can be gift wrapped in seasonal paper for free. Or for a few dollars you can upgrade to a decorative gift bag or box. I love the sparkly metallics and floral prints they offer that coordinate so nicely with the holder designs.
Some holders like the plush stuffed animals also come pre-packaged in cardboard gift boxes. And limited collections in keepsake tins or bags are always special finds!
When gifting, I like to pair a holder with a set of coordinating mini sanitizer bottles in yummy scents and a lip gloss or hand cream to make a whole pampering package. The B&BW gift sets are always crowd pleasers!
Between the presentation and useful gift, your sanitizer holder will be the hottest item under the tree or at the birthday party!
Light Up Your Life
Recently, Bath and Body Works took their holders to the next level fun with light up and glow in the dark designs!
The Light Up Snow Globe holder has a built-in LED base that really makes the flakes glitter. And some hard case holders feature cool abstract designs that glow when the lights go down.
They even have Light Up Plush Clouds and Narwhals with rainbow belly lights. The whimsical glowing animals perk up any desk or shelf.
I’m fully obsessed with this new light up addition! They make ordinary sanitizing moments much more magical. I hope B&BW keeps expanding the glow-in-the-dark and LED collections. They really light up my life!
