  • Glow’s Coast Bubble Bath Is Perfect For Bath Lovers

    A bath is an evening ritual I rarely miss out on. I find it relaxing, I use it as time out for myself and it gives me a few minutes of not having to move. Why would I NOT love a bath? Having baths regularly means the amount of products I have for the bath is varied and I always love to try something new. My latest bath time treat comes in the form of Glow’s Coast Bubble Bath. This was part of Glow’s New Year New You January Subscription Box. So what was it like?

    Glow’s Coast Bubble Bath
    Packaging

    Simple, practical and basic is how I would describe how this bubble bath is packaged. It comes in a clear, flip topped plastic bottle which is labelled.

    Consistency & Look

    Consistency wise Coast Bubble Bath is a little thicker compared to other bubble bath products I’ve used. But it’s liquid and flows. Look wise, this is a beauty! It’s a turquoise colour which is very sea/marine like, with the most stunning shimmer and sparkle to it. It has hints of fine gold running through this which is eye catching and mesmerising.

    Fragrance

    Clean, fresh, mineral based with a hint of sweetness. This is the type of fragrance that would appeal to both the guys and the girls. I love how this smells! It’s strangely relaxing and invigorating at the same time!

    In the bath

    A small amount of this bubble bath created a generous amount of white, fluffy, compact bubbles which were foamy and a joy to sit in. Not only was a lot produced but they lasted a good amount of time too. The fragrance was incredibly relaxing when I used this for the first time. It was the perfect medium strength to smell but not overpowering. I enjoyed every moment in this bath. I was unsure whether my skin would like this or not as it’s incredibly irritated at the moment. But it didn’t cause my skin any issues, it didn’t feel worse, it didn’t dry out and didn’t cause me any issues.

    Recommended?

    The fragrance, the look, the bubbles and the atmosphere created are all reasons why I recommend this product. I loved using it. It’s totally different to anything you can grab off a supermarket shelf look and scent wise, and it’s a great quality bath product which I can’t see anyone NOT liking!

    This is available on Glow’s website for only £2.25 for 100ml. It comes in different fragrances along with Coast, including Snow Fairy, Aliens, Millions, Wish, Kreed and Slumber.

  • Champneys Health Spa Bubble Heaven Calm

    If there are people out there that find relaxing easy, I salute you! It’s not the easiest state of mind to be in these days. Although I find having a bath relaxing, switching off isn’t as easy. My phone tends to be glued to me or a book. But I guess that’s my way of relaxing possibly? Anyway, another bath and a new product to use is a good way to start an early evening. And my product of choice is Champneys Health Spa Bubble Heaven Calm that I received as a Christmas 2020 gift from a friend.

    Champneys Health Spa Bubble Heaven Calm

    Why did I chose to use this one? Sometimes I head towards my trusted favourite scents and products, sometimes I want something different. This was something new and different. I thought if anything was going to give me a great bathing experience, surely Champneys Health Spa products would do the trick?So I hoped it would be very enjoyable and relaxing in use.

    Packaging. A beautiful, simple but very classic look is showcased with this bath product. 300ml ( which is actually a decent size ) is housed in a plastic bottle. Quite chunky in look with a wider than usual screw top lid which I love. Neutral colours ( white and beige ) with hints of black and gold. Label is textured which gives it a more expensive appearance and feel, and all usual information visible on front and back.

    Scent. Fresh, clean, earthy thanks to its woody notes with a hint of herbal to it. Not too heady but still packs a punch! Incredibly intoxicating and enjoyable to smell. Personally, I think this is unisex but has more masculine elements to it. But a great one for those who don’t want typical sweet, floral or fruity scents.

    In the bath. I poured a small amount of this under warm running water, and I could clearly see this was golden in colour. What I didn’t realise until I looked more closely this actually was GOLDEN in colour! Thick ( but typical in consistency for a bath product like this ), shimmering gold which twinkled..yes twinkled as it came out of the bottle. Beautiful and decadent in look. A small amount of Bubble Heaven created ALOT of soft and white bubbles/foam. The bath water underneath remained clear, colourless and no visible shimmer I could see once the bath was complete.

    I have to say this was one of the most relaxing baths I’ve had in a long time. It was the fragrance that did it for me. Totally different to anything I currently own and use, or even have had before. And when I say it put my mind in a great place it really did. The bubbles lasted for ages and the fragrance was there well after my bath had finished. I came out of the bath feeling clean but not dried out, totally chilled, with my skin lightly scented from it.

    Who is this not for? This really boils down to preference when it comes to fragrance. Woody, herbal, almost masculine like in scent is how I think of this. If you don’t like these types of notes this isn’t for you! Also if your budget is super tight and you don’t want to spend a significant amount on something you pour into your bath don’t buy this because it’s not a 99p cheapo bubble bath.

    Recommended? I honestly couldn’t recommend this enough! The thing with a bubble bath type product is it just needs a few elements to it to make it work. Ideally, you want bubbles, so check. You don’t want it to strip the skin of moisture and dry it out. That’s a big one! And definitely NO irritation. And you want it to smell nice unless it’s fragrance free. So it really is hard to get this kind of product wrong if you follow such a simple formula.

    But the quality is obviously there with this one and the scent for me is stunning. It smells expensive and high end. I’m making it my mission to buy as much of this range as possible when I can afford it! And dare I say this is my favourite bubble bath ( calling it this seems SO wrong! ) I’ve used this year if not for the last couple?

    If you want to get hold of your very own Heaven in a bottle, it’s available in various places on the high street and online. But be warned! This isn’t the cheapest to buy! 500ml costs £12.00 from Boots, who at time of writing this post are doing a 3 for 2 deal on the range which could save on the pennies and pounds. But can I add, I personally feel it’s worth the price its fabulous!
