Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Bath Foam

viktor-rolf-flowerbomb-bath-foam

While I love Flowerbomb’s rich, sweet and mysterious fragrance all year, its spiciness lends itself especially well to fall.

Now that the air is finally becoming crisp and cool, I can think of no indulgence I’d enjoy more than relaxing into a hot tub full of luxurious foam exquisitely scented with Flowerbomb. According to the website, “A single drop of this golden oil wondrously transforms your bath into a pleasure-giving milky fluid exhaling the gentle, rounded fragrance of Cattleya Orchid, Freesia and Centifolia Rose.”

Sign me up!

Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Bath Foam is available from Saks Fifth Avenue for $90.

Philosophy I Love Candy Corn Shampoo, Shower Gel & Bubble Bath

philosophy-candy-corn

While I always find it slightly absurd that mass retailers begin to market Halloween merchandise before school even starts, in the case of seasonal beauty products, I make an exception!

Candy corn is one of my ALL-TIME favorites (which means a lot, coming from a sugar addict) so the idea of literally being able to bathe in it kind of thrills me.

I’ll have to check this one out immediately!

Philosophy I Love Candy Corn Shampoo, Shower Gel and Bubble Bath is available from Sephora for $16.

Philosophy: She Colors My Day

philosophy

Inspired by the artwork of her daughter, philosophy founder Cristina Carlino authored and co-created She Colors My Day, a heartwarming song that honors the unique relationship between a mother and her daughter.

This high-foaming bubble bath was created to celebrate this song and what it stands for while benefiting the Women’s Cancer Research Fund. 100% of the net proceeds of this product goes to the Women’s Cancer Research Fund to support the early detection of women’s cancers.

She Colors My Day Bubble Bath comes in two colors and scents: green, a light refreshing scent and pink, a pink bubble gum scent. Both will lightly tint your bathwater green or pink and help to soothe and moisturize skin.

Philosophy She Colors My Day Bubble Bath is available online at philosophy.com.

Beau Bain Lavender Bath Bomb

lavender-collection-1

Every weekend I try to get in at least one relaxing, long bath to take me away from my crazy life. Amazingly, just 20 minutes of calm alone time does wonders for my attitude.

Over the last couple weekends, I’ve been enjoying luxurious bath bombs from Oregon-based company Beau Bain. The ice-cream scoop-sized bombs are not only moisturizing and relaxing, but also entertaining. It’s kind of fun to watch the bomb fizz until there’s nothing left (in Janey’s case this means making it last for the entire duration of her bath as she’s perfected the dip-and-remove, dip-and-remove, dip-and-remove, savoring every last fizz).

Beau Bain Luxurious Moisturizing Bath Bombs come in a variety of flavors, Lavender is my favorite, and are $8 each at beaubain.com.
