Bath experience with Aromatherapy Associates

I discovered Aromatherapy Associates a few months ago thanks to Cult Beauty. They sent me a sample of their Relax Deep Bath and Shower Oil. I loved it and couldn't wait to try it again. I ordered the full-size bottle recently and I have used it enough so I can review it. 

I have tried quite a lot of bath products which are supposed to help decompress, so I am a little jaded and skeptical, but this one...  oh, this one is just perfect.



This is a very powerful blend of oils like vetivert, sandalwood and camomile that you put in your bath or on your body. It really is incredible. I am a little skeptical towards aromatherapy in general, but this one is just so efficient and so glamorous. It is absolutely beautiful, the smell is gorgeous and stays quite long on you. 

It really helps to destress and makes for a fabulous bath experience. You just want to stay there forever and to go to sleep immediately after. 

It doesn't hurt that the bottle is cute. It is certainly a little pricey for a bath oil, but it stays a long time. A 55ml bottle costs 39£ (around 45 €).

Armoatherapy Associates are just great with their nurturing, high-quality and self-indulgent products. They have other products that I would like to try eventually, the Revive Morning or the Inner Strength Bath Oil, which is supposed to uplift and boost your spirit. Right now I mostly need help relaxing, but if it is as good as the Relax Deep, I will certainly give it a go some time. 

Body Lotion by La Sultane de Saba

I have discovered a great brand of products inspired by Oriental beauty rituals, La Sultane de Saba. I have tried several of them on a thalassatherapy trip I took recently.
I will review them in time, but I found I had a bottle of green tea and ginger body lotion from this brand.

La Sultane de Saba, a French brand of Oriental and Asian-inspired products with healthy and natural products.
The idea is to recreate the beauty rituals from the East with simple, natural and rich products. This body lotion is a very fresh and light cream which penetrates the skin very easily. It leaves the skin very smooth, even and beautiful. I was very pleasantly surprised with what I thought would be a ordinary body lotion. But it is more fancy and efficient than a simple moisturizing lotion. It is quite expensive, though, and probably too pricey for a body lotion, however efficient it may be.

I will certainly buy and try products from La Sultane de Saba, but considering the fact that they are all quite expensive, I will focus on the more unique products they offer, like their Black Soap or the Elixir of the Bride, a purifying lotion made with rose and orange blossom water. I will also try the Sugar Cane Mask, which I just can't wait to try.
