  • New Skin Saints Shower Whips!

    Skin Saints is a brand I’ve kept my eye on for awhile. First, it was their skincare. Then, I was intrigued by their fragrances, and now their body care products are on my radar. The latest product I’ve noticed on sale is their shower whips. So what’s available and how much do they cost?

    Skin Saints Shower Whips
    Fragrances

    3 fragrances are available. These shower whips come in:

    Cherry Bomb

    Apricot Blush

    Pineapple Sorbet

    These three fragrances are perfect for spring and summer use. All fruity with hints of floral, all sweet and all sound like fun!

    Apricot Blush Shower Whip
    Packaging

    Very similar to a lot of shower whips/shower foams available on the market. This comes in a canister, colour wise pastel shades, very basic but still attractive.

    Who would like this?

    Those who want a more pampering shower experience. If you love different textures with body care products this might be for you. And those with dry skin, as these formulations should be non-stripping and moisture giving, might be a must to purchase!

    Pineapple Sorbet Shower Whip
    Size, price and where to buy

    250ml for £3.00, available in Tesco.

    Thoughts?

    Nicely packaged, great fragrances and affordable price. I’m tempted, but are YOU?

  • Cosy Winters Night Whipped Soap By Lotions & Potions

    What products do you use in the bath or shower to wash your body? The market is FULL of various gels, creams, mousses and soaps, that we’re spoilt for choice. Personally, what I use depends on my mood. If I’m in a ‘I want to treat myself’ mindset, I will go with something a little luxurious. If I’m tired and have lost the will to live, something ordinary and simple. One product I’ve used on and off over the years in both the shower and the bath is whipped soaps. The last one I purchased was in Lotions & Potions December Pamper Box, caled Cosy Winters Night Whipped Soap. So, what is it like?

    Cosy Winters Night Whipped Soap By Lotions & Potions
    Packaging

    120g of whipped soap is housed in a clear, plastic, lidded pot. The fact it’s clear lets you have a sneak peak of what the whipped soap looks like. The lid, I love, as it’s embossed with the Lotions & Potions logo. Also included is a mention that these products from this business are chemical free. The packaging is practical, simple, not flashy and has a ‘natural’ feel to it.

    Look & consistency

    Cosy Winters Night Whipped Soap comes in a beautiful and bright spring like yellow colour. Very vibrant and eye catching. The whipped soap you can see has literally been piped into it’s packaging because of the shape its in. It looks thick, solid, holds its shape and dusted with glittery pigments and silver and gold tiny star shapes. Very pretty!

    Fragrance

    Cosy Winter Night Whipped Soap is a difficult scent to describe. Its fresh and clean, which is great for everyone and anyone. Very comforting in scent, has a sweet amber like hint to it. It’s beautiful and definitely screams winter to me.

    On the body

    I use a fingertip amount of this whipped soap on each body part. Despite the fact that this comes out quite hard and solid, rubbed into the skin it softens and almost melts away. On a sponge, this lathers up beautifully but doesn’t create bubbles. What it does is leave a creamy, soft covering over the skin, it then does what a traditional soap does on the skin, slightly foam and then clean. Does it clean the skin well? Oh yes! Very enjoyable and easy to use. The scent made this product even more decadent and pleasurable and left my skin feeling soft, smooth and clean.

    Lotions & Potions December Pamper Box
    Recommended?

    Gorgeous fragrance, texture to die for, cleans the skin well and does it in a way that its an experience rather than a simple wash of the body. Yes! Recommended! If, like me, you love your richer, thicker textures when it comes to the products you use, you will LOVE this!

    Cosy Winters Night Whipped Soap was part of special, seasonal box, so no longer available. But other scented whipped soaps are available here. All 120g and £5.50 each. Enjoy!

  • More Bath & Shower Product Bargains In Boots!

    After discovering some amazingly priced bath, shower and body care products in my local Boots store recently, I couldn’t help visit another store to see what they had to offer. I wasn’t disappointed! I left with a heavier bag than I walked in with but spent less than £3.00! So what did I see, but more importantly, what did I buy?

    Bath & Shower Product Bargains In Boots!
    Cussons Creations Vanilla & Shea Butter Shower Gel

    400ml of a floral, sweet, powdery and clean scented shower gel that can be used in both the shower and the bath. Clearance price 25p.

    Cussons Creations Vanilla & Shea Butter Shower Gel
    Imperial Leather’s Mandarin & Neroli Body Wash

    250ml of a body wash that is fruity but not too sweet. Very refreshing in scent thanks to a citrus undertone. 25p for 250ml.

    Imperial Leather’s Mandarin & Neroli Body Wash
    Palmolive’s Thermal Spa Silky Oil Shower Gel

    400ml of a shower gel fragranced in coconut oil and lavender. This is sweet, tropical-esq in scent, very comforting and soothing. A great product to use at night time to help relax and unwind from the day. 44p.

    Palmolive’s Thermal Spa Silky Oil Shower Gel
    Ineos Sea Salt+Blue Lotus Body Wash

    In my local store they only had this in the Mandarin & Sandalwood scent. So it was nice to see Sea Salt + Blue Lotus as a fresher, cleaner and possibly more masculine scent alternative. 75p for 300ml.

    Ineos Sea Salt+Blue Lotus Body Wash
    Treacle Moon’s Rouge Love Body Butter & Peace In A Flower Body Scrub

    I saw (and bought!) these when I visited my local store previously and it was good to see them available in other stores. These products smell amazing and are so good on the skin. Still at the clearance price I saw previously which was £1.25 for the body butter and 75p for the body scrub.

    What did I buy?

    Everything except the body butters! Slightly off putting to see a customer opening them all and sniffing them, so it was a no from me to buy these again! So I grabbed another body scrub for a friend, and everything else listed above for my son to use when needed. Overall, I bought (again!) another selection of super affordable products that can be used on a daily basis, so less than £3.00 well spent!

  • Looking For A Bargain? Check Out Boots!

    I can’t express enough how much I love a bargain! There’s nothing more satisfying than buying items that you would happily buy at full price to find they’ve been reduced. Although 2026 is a year I’m trying to be more mindful of how much money I spend, I still want to save money on as many purchases I make as possible. A recent trip to my local Boots had me walking out with an armful of discounted goodies. So what did I find and how much did it cost?

    Ineos Manadrin + Sandalwood Body Wash

    Not a brand I’ve used before but I’ve heard of it. 300ml of a body wash that is designed to be moisturising, fragrant, containing natural oils, combat odours and keep the body cool. I love the sound of the fragrance of mandarin & sandalwood. It sounds comforting and clean. And the packaging is unusual, stands out and something both men and women would happily have in their bathroom. Original price £3.00, reduced price 75p.

    Ineos Manadrin + Sandalwood Body Wash
    Treacle Moon’s Peace In A Flower Body Scrub

    Floral, feminine and almost perfume like, this body scrub smells so pretty! The formulation, if anything like other scrubs from this range, will be an effective exfoliant and leave the skin soft, smooth and moisturised. I’ve used scrubs from Treacle Moon before and loved them, so I know this will be great. I’m not sure how much Boots retailed this for, but on Treacle Moon’s website this is priced at £3.00. Boots in store clearance price? 75p. (matching shower & bath gel available).

    Treacle Moon’s Rouge Love Story Body Butter

    I’ve just finished this body butter and it’s a delight! (see review here). It’s a beautiful body butter. Good size at 200ml which will provide fragrance and moisturisation on a daily basis. At Boots this normally costs £4.99 but current price reduced to £2.49. How much instore? £1.25! (matching shower & bath gel available).

    Treacle Moon’s Rouge Love Story Body Butter
    Treacle Moon’s Rouge Love Story Body Mist

    I’ve tried Treacle Moon’s Sunny Brazilian Love Fragrance Mist and honestly was disappointed. So what made me consider Rouge Story Body Mist? I love the scent of Rouge Story Body Butter. It’s a deeper, richer scent than Sunny Brazilian so I hoped it would perform better. But the body butter being available and the matching body mist meant an affordable way to layer in a beautiful fragrance. Usual price in Boots was £3.99, down to £1.99, instore £1.00!

    Treacle Moon’s Rouge Love Story Body Mist
    Did I buy any of these?

    Of course I did! I bought 2 each of the body wash, body butters and body mists. And 3 scrubs. So what am I going to do with these? If I don’t keep them for myself, which is a strong possibility, these will make great gifts. I bought these with people in mind. I’m happy I found these at the prices I did because saving money in 2026 on purchases I was going to make is what I’m after!

    *Instore and online prices may vary. At time of publishing post these were available in my local store at mentioned prices but may change or vary in other stores*
