Hey everyone. So regular readers will already be aware, but
I am a huge lover of baths. I bath all year round, but when it gets a little
colder and hits autumn/ winter it is bath season. I was also very lucky to receive
a few bathing bits for my birthday, which I have been trailing and tested. So
today I thought I let you know about a new set of products I’ve been really
liking: Heathcote & Ivory Bath Petals.
Yes. Petals. Yes. Petals in the bath. I thought these were a
little gimmicky and odd, but they are actually such nice products to use in the
bath. The ones I have been using are these pretty pink soap roses from the
brand Heathcote & Ivory, and came in a set with a few other bits.
The flowers are basically soap petals that dissolve in your
bath. I have been using these along with a plain/ white bath bomb, but you
could use them with/without whatever you want. They look really pretty in the
bath and add a lovely light scent. Although the pack this was with is actually
quite heavily scented, a few of these petals add just a light touch.
On the packet, it recommends you use 5-6 petals per bath,
although I’ve been using more like 7-8. The pack I was given had four flowers,
which will each do two to three baths. Therefore, a set of four, like I have, can
last to around 12 baths- which is insane value for money when you compare them
with one-bath bath bombs and bubble baths.
So I’d never heard of the brand Heathcote & Ivory, so
decided to do some research for you all. The brand is basically full of
different bath and body bits, and has a variety of really lovely sets. I think
the brand is affordable when you compare them to high-street competitors (LUSH/
Body Shop) and is available online on their own site and Amazon. When buying
gifts, I would really keep this brand in mind because you can get some really
lovely products and sets.
The flowers I got were part of the Secret Paradise Explorer’sJournal, and came with a shower gel and body cream, all packaged in a book-look
box. However, the brand do so many different sets with the same or similar
flowers. You can even get a whole box of the soap flowers- which I think I
would love to give/ receive as a present.
So overall, I have been liking having flowers in my bath.
Yes, it is a little weird but it’s a bit of fun and they do smell very good.
