Advantages: The smell is wonderful, It is leaves your skin soft, it makes you feel soooo relaxed
Disadvantages: the price (but if used correctly its not that much of a disadvantage because it lasts ages)
Bubbly delights!!! I thought I would write an op on one of my favourite subjects......bathtime! In the busy world that I live (and most of you too I expect) I only really have time for a shower most days. However, once a week I make sure that the kids go to bed early, I have a great book and my favourite bath product. I keep a few in stock to account for my differing moods. Decleor bain relaxant is my bathing product to induce relaxation and sleep. Decleor products come in simple, yet stylish clear plastic bottle. It comes in two sizes, 200ml that is around £16 and 400ml that is £21, I always buy the 400ml as it is more economical. However if you find this a little extortionate you could wait for the twice a year sale that decleor has the 400ml bottle is then reduced by 25% which is excellent, this happens in July and January. Decleor is quite widely available in stores like House of Fraser, John Lewis and Bentalls the products are also available in many salons, however I am not sure if the salons do the sale prices in July and January, you could always give them a call to check. Decleor is also available on the shopping channel QVC and you can often pick up a bargain there. The counters in the department stores where decleor is available always has a trained decleor consultant there and I must say they are very knowledgeable and helpful. Decleor also do a great range of skincare. Free samples are usually available and there are always testers. A quick chat to one of the representatives and they will be able to tell you what products would be great for your skin. Decleor itself is a great brand that began about 20years ago. The brand prides itself on using pure plant essences and essential oils. Decleor is used at many top salons and health spas so it needs to be top class and also be able to be used on all skin types without sensitivity being caused. If a salon were to use poor products that caused reactions this would be very ba
d for business! Back to the product in hand, the wonderful bain relaxant. The product itself is a translucent yellow colour and it comes in the form of a gel. The smell is warm and relaxing, like a warm summer evening in a tropical paradise. The fragrance natural and not masculine or femine so it is ideal for everyone in the family. Particularly beneficial to those in the family with sensitive or easily irritated skin as this product uses such good ingredients that it would not cause any reaction (I know this from experience as many a shower product has caused itching and redness to myself). There are many beneficial properties to this product. It neutralises the effects of hard water and eliminates impurities. The main benefit I have from using this product is the relaxation and sense of well being I have when I step (reluctantly) from the bath. The relaxation properties come from the high grade essential oils that are used and these are, grapefruit, sandalwood, thyme, cedarwood and basil. The only negative thing I can say about this product is the price. However even that isnt that bad when you look around the department stores and some of the other bathing products that they sell and their prices and those products are no where near as good quality as this one. This product is also versatile, you can use it as a shower gel or a bathing product. When using as a shower gel I would recommend using a puff ball as this makes the product far more economical to use and I would use an amount the size of a 20p, you will find this more than enough as the product is so highly concentrated that a little really does go along way. In the bath I would use about double that and you will get millions of wonderful bubbles, not those big airfilled bubbles that you may be used to from your supermarket bubblebaths but teeny tiny bubbles that feel soft and luxurious on your skin. I would also recommend using this mainly as a bathing product as you
will get a better effect from the essential oils when you relax and really breath them in. Also when getting out the bath you will find that you dont actually need a body lotion as your skin will feel so baby soft (and wonderfully scented). This is another way that this product actually helps you save money (well that is what I tell my husband anyway he loves to hear I am actually saving money from my beauty purchases ;-) ). I have owned my 400ml bottle since the sale in January and I use it weekly in the bath and I also use it occasionally as a shower gel and my bottle is still just over half full so this product really does last along time. So in my opinion this is the best bathing foam on the market and joint best, along with Liz Earle Botanical Body Wash (see my other op :-) )shower gel. I would highly recommend this product to all, young and old, I have used this product as a bathing foam for my 20month old son with no ill effects. If you are slightly wary of trying a new product I recommend buying this from QVCUK.COM as they offer a 30day money back guarantee and if you don't like it they will give you a full refund. However I don't think that they will be getting many (if any) returned!! So go buy and try. I know you will love it and who doesnt need an hour of relaxation in this busy world we live in. Don't think of it as a luxury but as an essential destresser.

- 01/08/02 Excellent op! I've used this stuff for a few months now (I'm a bit of a Decleor obsessive!) and just recently I got a 400ml size, with free toner and cleanser off qvc's beauty month for £16!! Bargain.
Where do you go for the sale stuff in Jan/July? |
