There’s many reasons why I like to support small businesses. One reason is they create and sell products that you won’t normally find on the high street. Products can be more imaginative, more personal and compared to high street prices can still be affordable. I’ve discovered a bath, body and home fragrance small business called Bath Beauty Babe (formally Jenny Makes For You) thanks to Instagram. An order was made, I enjoyed the products and then I was kindly gifted Sleepy Unicorn Bath Soak. But was it as magical as it’s name suggests?
What is this & What does it do?
Containing essential oils such as lavender, this soak is meant to provide a relaxing bathing experience while providing the skin with hydration thanks to containing coconut oil.
Packaging
120g of Bath Beauty Babe’s Sleepy Unicorn Bath Soak is filled to the brim in a clear, plastic pouch which is resealable.
How does the bath soak look?
This bath soak isn’t liquid as a traditional soak would be. It’s actually made up of a fine powder of various colours, made up of yellow, pink, blue and purple. Perfectly named with this killer colour combo! Eye catching, pretty and very inviting.
Fragrance
I expected something sweet, like cotton candy. WRONG! This smelt of lavender. Not too strong but obvious, and not old fashioned either. Herbal, aromatherapy like and very soothing. A sweetness to this scent made it more rounded and pleasant to smell. Incredibly relaxing and comforting to experience.
Texture
Very fine, almost chalky in feel. Think of a deconstructed bath bomb before it sets and this is the texture of the bath soak.
In the bath
This didn’t create foam or bubbles. But the different colours of the bath soak merged into the water beautifully, left small little purple speckles on top of the water. How this behaved was similar to a bath melt. A bath melt contains a high amount of oil that melts into the water, no foam, and moisturises the skin. This is what this bath product did. It felt like a treatment that cocooned my body with moisture and nourished the driest parts of me. And to make this even more treatment like, the fragrance filling the bathroom made it incredibly relaxing and pampering.
Once out of the bath, my skin wasn’t irritated or dried out. Still slightly moisturised with a faint hint of fragrance on my body.
Recommended?
Relaxing, moisturising and treatment like is how I would describe Bath Beauty Babe’s Sleepy Unicorn Bath Soak. Used before bedtime this will be a great start to a bedtime routine for sure! From the pouch I received this is three baths minimum, so worth purchasing for multiple uses. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem as if this particular bath soak is available currently. But there are others to chose from varying sizes, prices and ingredients which will give foam, no foam and even contain salts! Visit the website here to see what’s available to purchase.
