Advantages: Smells gorgeous, lovely thick rich texture, froths up well, bubbles last a while

Disadvantages: I don't get chance to use it more often!

Well, I do believe this is the final product in my Soap and Glory gift set which I have yet to review. The Calm One Calm All bubble bath is a real bit of luxury at bathtime. I usually buy whatever's on offer, or occasionally I'll have received a gift set and treat myself, but this just makes bathtime feel so much more pampering.

The bubble bath costs £5.11 for 500ml at full price. This isn't too bad as the bottle should last a while, and you can take advantage of Boots' 3-for-2 offer which they run quite regularly.

This product describes itself as a double function deluxe formula bubble bath soak. Like the shower gel in the same range, it has a built-in moisturiser. This is reassuring because quite often after a long bath I leave the bathroom looking like a shrivelled prune, so it's good to know this is moisturising my skin!

The bubble bath is pink, as are many Soap and Glory products, and it has the classic sweet floral fragrance which is the Soap and Glory trademark. According to the Boots website product information, this fragrance is made up of bergamot, strawberries and mandarin, with floral and fruity mid notes, and musk, amber and warm vanilla. Lets be honest, that sounds good enough to eat, let alone have a soak in the bath in!

The packaging itself looks quite classy and luxurious, with a clear bottle so you can see the gorgeous pink looking liquid inside, and a very girly label with a black and white picture of a woman in the bath. I feel like I'm cheating the Soap and Glory brand by storing this in my bathroom cupboard instead of having it on display, but then my other half isn't a fan of clutter......

The bubble bath looks rich and creamy when you start pouring it, and it gives a good standard of bubbles without too much "swishing" of the water. The smell hits you immediately, and it penetrates the bathroom and fills the air. The smell makes the bathing experience really enjoyable, and the bubbles last a lot longer than most, even when I introduce the typical bubble-killers such as shaving gel or soap.

After using this bubble bath, I can't really comment on whether it left my skin any softer or more moisturised, because I always feel like my skin's dried out when I've had a bath due to me forgetting where I am and spending ages in there! I usually moisturise after a bath anyway, and I've been using the Soap and Glory range for this which has left me with lovely soft skin, so I can only presume that this bubble bath has contributed to that. I think the thickness of the product as you're pouring it probably indicates it has more moisturising properties than most.

Overall, I think this bubble bath is worth paying a bit more for to bring a bit of luxury to what is for most people, a bit of a treat. I rarely get time for baths and am usually in and out of the shower as quickly as possible, but if every bathtime was this pleasant, I'd probably make more time for them.
