It can be the simple things that make people happy. The feeling of peace and quiet shut off from the world. A few moments of pure relaxation and alone time. I’m basically describing having a bath! If you love your bath you will know having that time submerged in warm water with various lotions, potions and products in it really can be bliss. That’s why I take my bath products very, very seriously. During my last trip to high street retailer Boots I purchased not only Treacle Moon’s Frosted Candy Angel Shower & Bath Gel, but also their Sweet Berry Kisses Bath Salts. The bath salts cost £1.00 for 80g.
Why did I buy these?
I bought Treacle Moon’s bath salts a few years ago when they were available in Aldi and I thought they were great! But I hadn’t seen them since instore. When I saw these I had to purchase them! The price was still affordable and the scent from the name alone sounded perfect.
What is Sweet Berry Kisses Bath Salts?
These are baths salts that contain safflower and jojoba oils. You place the salts in your bath and they produce bubbles. Fragranced, foaming and vegan friendly.
Packaging
The bath salts come in a sachet. Fun in look, colourful and you actually can smell the fragrance of the bath salts from the packaging without even opening it.
How do these bath salts look?
I expected Sweet Berry Kisses to be pink or purple in colour because of their fragrance but it wasn’t. What I got was not typical bath salts in structure, but quite a fine powder with a few irregular sized pieces in it and the odd glisten of tiny crystal shapes. The actual colour? Brown! Not much different to hot chocolate powder that you just add water to it. Not massively appealing but was a big surprise.
Fragrance
A mix of slightly zesty but sweetened orange with ripe berries. An absolutely stunning scent and quite unusual as I don’t think I’ve smelt anything similar before in a bath product.
In the bath
Under warm running water, these bath salts immediately created soft, fluffy foam. It also turned the water from clear to a light pink colour which I didn’t expect because of the actual colour of the salts. The fragrance was there but light which suited me perfectly because a heady scent was not what I needed at the time. The foam/bubbles created wasn’t a massive amount but enough to cover the surface of the bath. They lasted a decent amount of time too which always helps.
In the bath I enjoyed it. As mentioned the fragrance was the right strength for me at the time (I had the mother of headaches), I spent 20 minutes in there and felt my time was well spent.
I did worry once out if my skin would react to it. Since the temperature and humidity in the UK has risen, my skin hasn’t liked it. A few small areas of skin have been itchy, sore and easily irritated. These bath salts didn’t cause any issues at all and were actually quite gentle on my skin overall and didn’t dry it out either.
Recommended?
Although this could be thought of as not the most economical because it’s only designed for one bath, I think it’s great. Perfect to add in a gift for someone, ideal to take away when travelling. And of course to just use at home when the mood takes you is a given. So I love the idea of this one bath serving sachet as it’s convenient with zero waste! Fragrance is stunning, creates foam, non drying or irritating to the skin and produces a lovely relaxing bath for £1.00. What more do you need? Totally recommended!
Sweet Berry Kisses Bath Salts can be found in a few selected stores such as Boots, Waitrose and direct from Treacle Moon themselves.
