Laura Mercier’s Body & Bath line has hit our our e-shop and we’re thrilled! Grace wanted to gift a few of the products to her Mum for Christmas, but in the end… Well, you’ll see:
My mum has just had her bathroom redone, so when I clapped my eyes on Laura Mercier’s Fresh Fig Honey Bath and Ambre Vanillé Body Scrub‘s beautiful packaging, I knew it would look right at home by her tub – a perfect Christmas gift! I couldn’t stop myself having a quick sniff of the scent, so as soon as I got home I took the elegant glass jars out of their boxes to have a sneaky peek. I unscrewed the lid of the Honey Bath and I knew I had to run a bath and jump in.The Fresh Fig Honey Bath comes with a wooden dipper, a luxurious mix of macadamia nut oil, oat protein and vitamin B that softens, rebalances and protects the skin, while fresh fig, ylang ylang and apricot create a calming aroma that gave me a big comforting embrace as I relaxed.
I also tested the body scrub, which comes with a mini scoop. I massaged small handfuls over my dry skin just before I got in the bath – this stimulates blood flow and removes dead skin. Shea butter and honey inform the soft almost-buttercream texture, with small grains of brown sugar and jojoba oil to exfoliate, it left my skin feeling so soft. The sweet scent has hints of coconut, almond, vanilla beans and sandalwood and the scent lingered even when I finally sank into the bath.
Fully relaxed, I finished off my bathtime bliss by slathering on the Body Butter in Fresh Fig, which some of our lucky subscribers will be trying this month! The lightweight formula absorbs quickly and contains grape seed oil, shea butter and jojoba, which work with honey and aloe vera to hydrate and soothe the skin. The three products create an experience that, I decided, was just too good to give up.
So, all apologies to my mum, who won’t be receiving that particular set this Xmas. I may be a bad daughter, but I’m a silky soft, heavenly scented one. Time to make another e-shop order…
