*~2 in 1 Bubble Bath and Wash~*

This 2 in 1 product from Johnson's is marketed as being both a bubble bath and a body wash for babies and young children. It has been designed to be kind to young skin whilst cleansing it. It should also create soft bubbles and shouldn't dry your childs skin out. This product also has the Johnson's 'no more tears' formula making the bubbly formula kind around the sensitive eye area.

This product is presented in a pale orange coloured bottle which is made of thick but squeezy plastic. The packaging features a flip top cap to ensure easy dispensing of this product whilst bathing your baby or toddler.The bottle can be recycled once empty and this product has a 12 month shelf life from first use.

*~Our Experience~*

My son is 4.5yrs old and has his own little collection of bath time products. I normally switch between Johnson's and Boots products depending on what sort of offer is on at the time of purchase. I have bought this 2 in 1 product a few times now and my most recent purchase was from Asda but I normally buy from Boots on some kind of promotion. It is worth looking out for special offers as Boots often have Johnson's on a '2 for 1' offer.

My son used to hate bath time but he loves it now. We normally ask Boo which bubble bath he wants to use between a few in the bathroom and this one is the most popular. The bottle is well designed but it isn't see through so judging the remaining contents is sometimes an issue. Often I do not realise we are low until the bottle starts spluttering the remains!

The first time we used this I was surprised at the consistency of the liquid. It is a pale white, thin and runny. I thought a lot would be needed to perform but a tiny blob of this product goes a long way and is very economical to use. It smells much nicer than some of the other Johnson's products as it is sweet and fruity but nice and mild. My son loves the scent too.

My son likes a bath on a Sunday night and opts for showers through the week to freshen up. As a bubble bath, this product performs perfectly fine but don't expect gigantic bubbles. I normally pour a little under the hot tap and swirl it around to form a nice little layer of soft bubbles. The water feels lovely and soft and my son has experienced no additional dryness of his skin whilst bathing in the bubbles. The bubbles whilst not outstanding are still evident after a long bath time of playing and splashing!

We mostly use this as a body wash after bathing or whilst in the shower. It is fine to apply it directly onto damp skin but my son likes us to squeeze some onto his wash cloth or sponge and clean himself whilst Mummy supervises and makes sure he gets a thorough wash down. This product lathers up well on damp skin and creates a creamy, mild and ruity smelling lather which leaves my sons skin fresh and clean. The lather rinses off well leaving no residue and a delicate sweet scent is evident on my sons skin once he has been dried.

My son does wipe over his face with this product on his cloth and hasn't complained of any stinging eyes so Johnson's have got the formula just right for being gentle. My son has sensitive skin which is prone to drying but this product is kind to his skin and leaves it nicely soft but not overly moisturised. I do apply a childs body lotion or butter to the rougher areas of his skin to ensure it remains soft and smooth.

*~Conclusion~*

I have used this myself too and find it very pleasant to use. It is kind to skin, cleanses well, smells good and if bought on offer works out good value for money too. I can't really fault it. Our last bottle lasted around 3 months with regular use and I have only had to replace it in the past week.

Thanks for reading :)
