  • Druid and The Witch’s Coconut & Waterfall Blooms Wax Melt

    It’s Halloween! Not a season I’m a massive fan of, but I do love a good theme when it comes to home fragrance products. And I won’t say no to a Halloween themed product that will make my home smell nice. The only way I’ve been participating in this event is melting a Halloween-esq shaped wax melt from Druid and The Witch in the fragrance of Coconut & Waterfall Blooms. Was it freakingly good or a scary disappointment?

    Druid and The Witch’s Coconut & Waterfall Blooms Wax Melt
    Why did I buy this?

    This wax melt came in a Halloween inspired bundle which only cost £6.00. This seemed a great opportunity to try different scents, get wax melts in very cute shapes all at an affordable price.

    How does this look?

    Lilac in colour and shaped like a very sweet, almost cartoon like ghost. Perfect size to pop into a wax warmer without having to break it up.

    Fragrance

    Coconut & Waterfall Blooms is a delicate floral scent with a slight hint of tropical to it. It’s very pretty, very fresh and incredibly relaxing.

    In melt

    The size of this wax melt is perfect for one use. The poor little ghost melted away quite quickly and left a gorgeous pool of lilac liquid wax while releasing it’s fragrance.

    Strength & Longevity

    Strength of Coconut & Waterfall Blooms I would say is close to medium than light. I melted this in my kitchen and it gave the room a lovely soft fragrance. It was there, you could smell it and it was perfect strength. Sometimes you want and need something punchy and in your face, sometimes you don’t. Definitely not needed to be strong in strength for this melt. Longevity wise this has proven to be quite good. It was on over the last two days for hours, and the scent remained consistent throughout.

    This is my first experience with Druid and The Witch’s wax melts. Great look, perfect strength for the scent family with good longevity. What more could I ask for? A thumbs up from me and I can’t wait to try more home fragrance from this company.

  • Spookily Good Druid & The Witch’s Candy Mummy Bath Bomb?

    Halloween isn’t something I celebrate but many people do. Decorations, food, costumes, lots of ghoulishly fun things are available to buy in stores and online. One thing I won’t say no to at any time of year is a bath bomb. I recently purchased a few bath and body products from a small business called called Druid and The Witch including their Double Mummy Bath Bomb in the fragrance of Candy Hearts. But the question is, was it as good as it looked or a hellishly bad bath product?

    Druid & The Witch’s Double Mummy Bath Bomb
    What does it look like?

    Roughly 3 inches in length and 2 inches wide, Double Mummy Bath Bomb is shaped and looks like a very cute almost cartoon like mummy. White, beady eyes with the look of it being wrapped in bandages and blood splatter like markings running around the edge. This look is mirrored on the bottom of the bath bomb because it’s not one but two bath bombs and has the typical chalky feel and look to it you would expect. These two pull a part so can either use for one bath and be indulgent or two.

    Fragrance

    Druid & The Witch’s Double Mummy Bath Bomb smells just like the sweets Love Hearts. Fruity, fizzy, sweet and very energising.

    In the bath

    I popped one mummy bath bomb under warm running water. As expected, it fizzed and bubbled away while producing white foam. What I didn’t expect was to see a train of deep red bursting out of the bath bomb into the water. This started off quite delicately and sparse, and then exploded into full on colour. Not a deep, crimson shade of red but more of a pinky/red which was fun to see. Although the colour remained the foam didn’t and quite quickly disappeared.

    My skin

    This bath bomb didn’t dry out, irritate or cause any issues for my skin. In the same way it didn’t hydrate or add much to it but I did enjoy using it and found it relaxing overall.

    The clean up

    Considering the colour the bath water became, I was worried about the state of my bath. No staining, no scrubbing needed, nothing! Anyone who uses bath bombs or other bath products which colour the water are fully aware sometimes clean up is a work out in itself but not with this one.

    Could this be better?

    Although this bath bomb had a great fragrance to it, it really should have been stronger. It was faint in the bath although noticeable, but not enough.

    Recommended?

    I liked this bath bomb. It looked fun, it was enjoyable to use and probably a great one for bath bomb lovers and kids alike. Despite the fact the scent of this could have been stronger, for the look of this and how it behaved in the bath I would recommend this.

    This Double Mummy Bath Bomb cost £4.50, which effectively makes it £2.25 each. Brilliant price! There are so many fantastic Halloween bath bombs available from Druid & The Witch, you really are spoilt for choice. Fancy a freakishly bathing experience?
