Mr Frosty Bath Creamer

At the London Blogger Secret Santa Meet, we were all given amazing goodie bags and in mine was this fabulous Mr Frosty Bath Creamer from Bomb Cosmetics which you can find HERE.  Now I am a HUGE fan of Bomb Cosmetics and their products are simply amazing and naturally I couldn't wait to chuck this into my bath and enjoy it.

Bomb Cosmetics tell you too "Drop Mr Frosty into a warm bath and watch him melt, softly giving up his Cocoa and Shea butters and Rose essential oils. With a warming, satisfying hot chocolate fragrance for cold winter nights".

Whenever I use something like this, I ensure there is a few inches of water in the bath and then placing the Bath Creamer into the warm water it begins to fizz instantly and run around your bath like someone on a sugar rush.  As it melts into the water it releases the Cocoa Butter and the Shea butter as well as the Rose Essential Oil which you can smell and it is totally divine.  Rose scented products rank highly in my favourite scents, so to use this Bath Creamer is a complete delight.  Once the Bath Creamer stops fizzing, it is time to get into your bath, relax and enjoy.

This Bath Creamer is full of lovely ingredients and I always like to look at what is something before I use it, it fascinated me for years and this particular product includes: 

• Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter - both know for their ability to moisturise the skin
• Rose Flower Oil - is great for toning the skin and also has moisturising properties
• Coconut Oil - the goodness within coconut oil and benefits for your skin is literally endless and it is something I always have in my kitchen cupboard and it leaves your skin feeling soft, smooth and incredibly moisturised to name but a few.

There are other ingredients included within this Bath Creamer which are listed on the Bomb Cosmetics website.

The water that you immerse yourself into feels really soft on the skin, that is the best way for me to describe it, the Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter are incedibly moisutirsing and I almost felt no need to add anything else to my skin because it is all there in the water. However with this cold weather, my skin is quite dry on my legs, so I did exfoliate, but then rather than use anything else, I used what was in my water and once out of the bath, my skin was soft and smooth to the touch and it smelt totally amazing.

Sometimes in these products there are bits which float about your bath, mainly to add some decoration and fun and the warning always is to rinse them away from the bath after use to avoid and prevent any staining.

All of the products from Bomb Cosmetics are formulated to be free from Parabens, or Paraben based preservatives.

Boutique Spa Blogger Event

A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to be invited to a Blogger event at The Boutique Spa in West London who are the first high street spa to partner with skincare brand ESPA. Boutique Spa offers a range of other treatments including massages, facials, waxing, threading and even treatments for men.

On offer to us Bloggers attending the event was a whole host of treatments from skin assessments, foot massages and pedicures to a manicure.  I was also lucky enough be given a glass (or three) of Champagne whilst I relaxed having a hand massage and manicure with the latest releases from the Essie Polishes from their Festive Range.  Each manicure starts at £14 and comes with the option of upgrading to a classic manicure which includes a hand and arm massage, or for those wanting The Boutique Spa Manicure this includes a soak, exfoliation, mask, heated hand and arm mits, massage, cuticle tidy, shape and buff/polish starting at £25 for 20 minutes.

I was given a choice of colours to choose from for my manicure and whilst I would usually opt for a berry colour or something purple, I went for something totally different and completely out of my comfort zone.

The Shade I went for was 'Chinchilly' which is described as being "A delicious smooth light praline nail colour that adds a touch of elegance hands and feet what ever the occasion".  I was a little unsure as to whether or not I would like the shade to begin with, but once it was applied I loved it and with an added extra of 'As Gold As It Gets' which is a lovely shimmery top coat, my nails looked fabulous.

My nails were also treated with Dadi Oil, which is a 95% Certified Organic Nail Treatment which absorbs quickly and penetrates deeply to enhance flexibility and prevents nail brittleness.  This oil smells wonderful of Lavender and Bergamot which are just 2 of the 21 essential oils this product contains.

If all of that wasn't enough, I came away with a goody bag and here it is for you to see:

I also couldnt resist this lip balm which comes in the most amazing packaging with a mirror! it smells wonderful and is so nice on my lips, I love it.

I really enjoyed attending this event and if you are ever in the area please do go and look them up.  Boutique Spa is located at 123 Queensway, London W2 4SJ and more information can be found on their website HERE.
