Advantages: Cheap, lovely smell, kind to the skin

Disadvantages: Doesn't moisturise loads (but you may appreciate that!)

Firstly I must apologise that on the link for this I have put Primak! Slight typo there and I have asked the guides to change it to Primark as that is what it is!

I have recently been working my way through Primark toiletries. For no other reason that I am a mega shopper in there and I'm constantly in a queue in there! So like most of you people reading this, if you shop in Primark you will by now well know that there is stuff by the tills and alot of us buy socks or slippers or something! Well me I love my toiletries and a pound each to buy (usually) I find myself getting something or other and usually socks too! lol

The Packaging....

500ml see-through plastic bottle with black shiny plastic flip top lid concealing a small hole to the top of it. On the front in in black writing I'm told it is Innersense, Pure Aromatherapy Products, Relaxing Creme Bath and that it's 'Packed with pure essential oils of Lavender & Clary Sage to relieve tension and soothe the soul' and that it's 'Formulated with pure passion exclusively for Primark'. Up the side of the bottle in a lilac and light purple colours there is a drawing of what looks like leaves on a stalk which compliments the colour of the product itself which is a shimmery darkish pink colour so it all matches up very well. On the back of the bottle I'm once again told what it is, ingredients are listed, contact details for Primark are given, size is stated and there is a bar-code on there and then I'm given loads of information in different languages as well. A really nice functional bottle that doesn't scream cheap and nasty. I do like products that look good after-all if I'm displaying them in my bathroom!

Using It....

Well I'm a huge fan of the fragrance of Lavender in general much to my friends disgust who constantly call me Granny Mel! I love it and it makes me feel all warm and cosy inside which is why it landed in my shopping basket while I was impatiently waiting at the tills in the first place lol!

To use it, of course you dispense some under running water in the bath. The amount you use depends on you of course, me I'm heavy handed and use quite alot to be honest with you. The liquid pours out of the bottle and it really is rather runny looking. If you use a small amount no colour is added to the bath water however as I say I use alot and my water goes very slightly pinkish.

The smell is lovely if you like Lavender. I don't find the smell harsh though it is quite distinctive though to my nose it has a slightly sweet undertone to it but it really is Lavender scented! It's fresh and quite highly fragrant although once you've had a bath in it the smell doesn't stick to your body for long which actually suits me as people don't moan at me for stinking like a Nanna!

When the bath is run your met with a generous helping of thick, white, rich lather which will stay put for the duration of your bath. I bath regular in it for a couple of hours topping up with hot water and stuff and not only does it keep the bubbles I have, I get new one's, the smell doesn't fade and overall this is a really nice Creme bath.

It gives soft water that doesn't feel sticky or anything either. It gently hydrates the skin without giving any skin issues and it is (to me) very relaxing. I love the smell and everything about it. Sure it isn't the most luxurious product I've ever used in my bath but really it is excellent value for money, and suitable for anyone to use as, as I said earlier you don't stink to high heaven after using it anyway. You just smell fresh and clean.

I would definitely recommend this for all skin types as it's very mild. It isn't heavily moisturising but it doesn't upset greasy areas of my skin either. You simply have a nice fragrant, relaxing bath and that's that! Simple!

Only available in Primark usual price £1.00 but currently on offer at 50p and does give you around about 20 baths (well it does me and I use alot per bath lol).

Summary: A really nice product!
