Best of Bath & Body Gifts for Valentine’s
By Jessica, February 7, 2011
Whether you’re looking for little luxuries to spoil her with, or just the perfect addition to a bubble bath for two, we’ve researched the best loved-up products on offer for every budget this Valentine’s Day.
Love Me Naked Body Wash
Naked Skincare products are 97% natural, and what’s great about their Rose fragrance is that it isn’t sickly sweet like many counterparts from other brands. This body wash leaves an intriguing floral fragrance lingering on the skin, making it perfect preparation for a hot Valentine’s date. Also a bonus is that it’s not overwhelmingly girly, so it’s more than suitable for a bath for two.
RRP €5.89 for 250ml from Boots.
Elemis Exotic Frangipani Monoi Moisture Melt
This gorgeous oil from Elemis promises to intoxicate her senses this Valentine’s Day. Exquisitely scented with the musky Frangipani flower, the oil smells a little like sweet almonds. Warm it up by placing the bottle in the bath and massage the resulting liquid into the skin for prolonged nourishment – she will love you for it!
Elemis products are available from Harvey Nichols in Dublin and online from timetospa.co.uk, RRP €48 for 100ml.
Cowshed Horny Cow Seductive Bath & Massage Oil
For ladies with a sense of humour, this fun and frisky oil from Cowshed can be used to bubble up the bath or for a seductive massage. The scent is a mixture of floral tones with spicy patchouli and cinnamon, and the product is free from parabens, petrochemicals, sulphates and artificial colours.
