Bath bombs. There are different types and styles of bath bombs on the market, but it doesn’t mean they are all made equal. I’ve used some fabulous quality ones, and also some pretty rubbish ones too. One bath product I’ve given my time, energy and bath to last week was Miss Patisserie’s Frosting Bath Slab. Bought online from ASOS, when it was on sale for £4.00.
Why did I buy this?
I’ve used a bath slab from Miss Patisserie before and loved it! So when I saw this was on sale in a fragrance I hadn’t tried before I NEEDED to give this a go.
What’s a Bath Slab?
A bath slab is no different to a bath bomb, except it’s shaped as a slab. A segmented rectangular flat block which can be broken up and placed into the bath.
Packaging
Frosting Bath Slab comes in a pastel shaded rectangular cardboard box. There’s a large circular hole at the front which give you a peek at what the slab looks like. I like how this is presented. It makes it stand out, great for gift giving and just makes it look very appealing.
How does this look?
This is a chunky, rectangular shaped block. It’s segmented like a bar of chocolate and there are 20 segments visible. On one side the bath slab has an almost drip effect on it colour wise. There’s a bright, pink, shimmering shade of colour coming over a section of white which then becomes baby blue in shade. The back is totally one block colour which is blue. Simple but eye catching.
This is a very thick looking and feeling bath slab. It’s 5 inches in length, over 2.5 inches in width and just over 1 inch in depth. It’s a whopper! Not heavy though but has a typical chalky bath bomb feel to it.
Fragrance
I’m not 100% sure what this is supposed to smell like, but this just comes across quite sweetie like to me. I don’t think it’s very specific in scent but it’s nice.
In the bath
I threw the whole slab into the bath but it broke in two before it reached the bath. Sat on top of the bath water it fizzed away slowly, releasing a blue colour. A little foam was formed, with both parts of the slab dancing happily around each other.
It took some time for it to dissolve. When it did, the once clear water became a sea of blue which was incredibly relaxing to get into. I enjoyed being in this bath. It felt like a bath soak at this point and was very easy to unwind. It also caused no issues to my skin which seems very easily irritated at the moment. What was also nice is getting a whiff of the fragrance while using this bath slab. It wasn’t strong, it wasn’t too subtle but it was there and I liked it!
Recommended?
This is a good quality, great looking bath product that could easily be used in more than one bath if you don’t want to be greedy! Frosting Bath Slab has a lovely fragrance to it, turned the bath water into a gorgeous colour and it provided a really nice, chilled out bath. So why would I NOT recommend this?
At full price this is normally around the £7.50 mark. It’s available direct from Miss Patisserie and other online retailers. This will keep any bath bomb addict happy so definitely one to put on a to buy list.
