Salt Scrub | Product Reviews by The Experimental Mommy

June 8, 2011 By Jennifer

When the heat rolls around, my skin starts to suffer. From constant abuse at the ball park or swimming pool, it gets dry and rough as the summer progresses. I am constantly loading up on lotions and other products to try and keep dry and flaky patches away but it seems like a losing battle. Recently, I was thrilled to receive a goody box from Aromatic Escape. They kindly sent me a jar of their Butt Naked Sugar Scrub, Cotton Blossom Salt Scrub, Hang 10 Lotion Bar, and a Gardenia Candle. All of the products are beautifully packaged. I couldn’t wait to dive in!

I used the Cotton Blossom Salt Scrub that evening. I have to say I was amazed! After using the product on my legs, elbows, and feet, I noticed an immediate difference in my skin. The scrub smelled GREAT and polished my skin in a way that other products I have used didn’t. In fact, it was exactly like a product my favorite spa uses when I get a pedicure. HEAVENLY. In addition, upon getting out of the shower and drying off, it left my skin very soft and I felt like didn’t even need to apply lotion to my legs. The Gardenia Candle has been a great addition to my bathroom and is strong enough to smell great but not so strong it knocks you down! The Butt Naked Sugar Scrub has a lighter scent than the Salt Scrub and seems to be an equally great product for keeping your skin from showing signs of summer wear and tear. In addition, the Hang 10 Lotion bar smells great! This might be my favorite product! It comes in a tin that’s easy to pack in a purse or bag and although it looks like soap, it’s not. The lotion soaks in and acts like a second skin to protect and moisturize your skin. You can wash your hands without washing away the lotion. This makes the product ideal for those in the education or medical fields where employees are constantly washing their hands. The lotion bars come in a variety of scents to match the salt & sugar scrubs. This product is REALLY neat.

I have thoroughly enjoyed using all of the Aromatic Escape products and would definitely give them as a gift or treat myself to them on a regular basis!

Bathtub Bling: Review and Giveaway

Bathtub Bling’s body products will allow me to indulge myself by pampering my skin with a salt glow scrub followed by a creamy skin butter in absolutely delicious scents!

One velvety Skin Butter in Coffee House, one salt glow in Midnight Margarita, and one excited Mom ready to pamper herself! About Bathtub Bling:

“You know when you walk into your favorite coffee shop and you get a waft of fresh brewed coffee…then you catch of whiff of the caramel macchiato that the barista is blending…that creamy, sweat vanilla tinged caramel…and then the guy in front of you turns around and he’s carrying a warm cinnamon cake? That’s what our Coffee House smells like!! It is AMAZING!! So rich, so decadent, so savory!! We get people stopping by our booth asking where we got our coffee!

Our Velvety Skin Butter includes Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter, which have historical benefits to the skin. Scars, blemishes, imperfections have known to heal from these nourishing oils. In addition, we include Vitamin E and C, plus Japanese Green Tea to help combat free radicals. It glides on silky smooth, absorbs quickly and leaves your skin powdery luscious!You know when you walk into your favorite coffee shop and you get a waft of fresh brewed coffee…then you catch of whiff of the caramel macchiato that the barista is blending…that creamy, sweat vanilla tinged caramel…and then the guy in front of you turns around and he’s carrying a warm cinnamon cake? That’s what our Coffee House smells like!! It is AMAZING!! So rich, so decadent, so savory!!”

I rarely get the chance to soak in the tub and take a bath for any extended period of time, so I LOVE when I get a chance to review bath and body products! It gives me an excuse to take time for myself…in the name is research, of course! So, when Bathtub Bling gave me the opportunity to review some of their luxurious products, I jumped at the chance.

With winter just around the corner and the temperature starting to fall, my skin has become increasingly dry. The salt glow smelled divine and worked wonders on my flaking skin. After bath, I used some of the Velvety Skin Butter in the Coffee House scent. My skin has never felt so soft! The texture went on light, and the scent was to die for! This is one review that I wish I could make scratch and sniff!

I love my products from Bathtub Bling! I would definitely order the Coffee House Skin Butter again and am tempted to try some other scents such as Sugar Cookie or Mr. Gingerbread. Right now, you can receive 50% off your order through Monday, November 30th! What a great deal on gifts that would be PERFECT for stocking stuffers or teacher gifts!
