PrettySudsUK! Review

Pretty Suds UK

I ordered from PrettySuds a while ago but have only just got round to this post. I wanted to try out a few of their products before writing this on them. 

When I ordered with them I mentioned I was a blogger, because of this they were kind enough to give me two free bath bombs (one of them is in a giveaway I am running atm on my Instagram) *the giveaway has now closed* 

The order came in two boxes, due to the amount I had ordered, and was packaged beautifully. The smells from the box had me in much awe and I was very excited to try out the products!

As you can see from the picture, I ordered a lot of products. Although it came at a pretty cheap price of around £40. As someone who is constantly finding products which are cheaper than Lush for my followers, then I think these were pretty good value!

I ordered nearly every bath bomb on their site, three reduced bubble bars along with a beautiful smelling bubble bar, 2 shower jellies and quite a few wax melt bars. 

I noticed that every product is wrapped individually in plastic which has pros and cons. By wrapping them, they are less likely to be damaged during shipping, but, of course, this produces excess waste which isn't too good for the environment. However, they were wrapped really well and they would make perfect gifts as they are!

I already did an unboxing video on my YouTube channel (linked below) so I'm going to dive straight into talking about the products!


The Products

Juliet's Kiss

Juliets Kiss is a lovely floral and pink bath bomb. The colours are soft and the smells are natural but lovely. It reminded me a lot of roses when I first smelled it and I knew it would be great in the bath. 

Pretty Suds describes it as 'blossoming with jasmine, violet and peony. Captured inside the bomb are rose petals that are gently scattered across your bath. Courtesy of Romeo himself'.  

The smell very much reminded me of Tisty Tosty from Lush. If you don't like things floating in your bath then I suggest you use this with some kind of strainer. It is packed full of petals which made me feel like a princess when I bathed.

This bath bomb would be perfect for a romantic night or when you want to have a floral pick me up bath. It made lovely water and fizzed nicely whilst making beautiful patterns in the water. Watch me demo it here here and here  

I would give this 4/5 in terms of value for money, scent and my love of it.

Moonshine 

Moonshine smelled fruity when I first opened the packet, but then I could really smell lemons and raspberries. The bath bomb was beautiful colours and I was slightly mesmerised by the blue and yellow that ran round it. 


Pretty Suds calls it '[a] gorgeous bath bomb.. [with] its spectacle of colour and rich English fruit fragrance'.  The bath bomb was simple but exciting at the same time. The minute it hit the water it fizzed bright blue and yellow which smelled of crisp apple, raspberries and lemons. 

It was very different to something I have ever tried, and I very much enjoyed it. They have managed to incorporate some beautiful fragrances into this bomb and they smell very natural. Nothing smells artificial or fake. 

The only downside was the little stars which were then stuck in my bath after but they were pretty easy to clean out. 

Watch me demo it here. 

This bath bomb definitely deserves a 4/5. 

Monster

The monster bath bomb was a beautiful bath bomb of pinks and greens. When I first opened the package, I couldn't really work out the scent. I knew it was sweet and hoped the true scent would come through when I used it in the bath. 


On the website, Pretty Suds shows the bath bomb with a strawberry and lime. I think it was supposed to be a sweet kind of strawberry milkshake. 
In the bath, it created beautiful colours as it fizzed and you can see the demo here.  First I could smell the lemon but then the sweet strawberry smell hit as a backnote. 

When the bath bomb created a beautiful colour in the water, I noticed the monster inside it. This had been the thing which had intrigued me to by this product in the first place. 

It was purple and the cutest thing ever! It was such a nice surprise and I think this would be a great product for children.

This bath bomb deserves a 5/5. I found nothing wrong with it and would definitely recommend and buy it again. 


The Bee's Knees

This was actually one of the free products which Pretty Suds sent to me! I thought it was like honeybee from Lush but more sweet. It had a strong smell of caramel and it smelled of all things good. 

The website says it is 'Fragranced in sweet chocolate and honey and carefully decorated in chocolate and gold glitter.... Can you resist?'.

It was pretty to say the least and it had a beautiful pattern on top which looked like chocolate (I'm not too sure if it actually was... I was reluctant to try after a bad Lush bubble bar experience).

It smelled beautiful and I was pretty sure it would smell just as good in the water.

The bomb fizzed fast as soon as it hit the water. Shades of orange and amber leapt off it as it bubbled in the water. I could instantly smell the honey and the smell was beautiful. Watch it here

I found that the bath bomb was quite moisturising and left a lovely colour of water.

I give this 5/5. 

Fireworks

Fireworks is one of the prettiest bath bombs I have used so far! The colours which ran round the outside absolutely amazed me when I took it out of the box.   

It smelled different to anything I had ever tried but the smell was beautiful. It was an orange yet floral smell and it definitely lifted my mood.

Pretty Suds describes it - 'Fireworks bath bomb has been carefully crafted with rays of colour to brighten up your day. The scent of the bath bomb is Frangipani Plumeria, which is an aromatherapy oil used to lift spirits and soothe emotional wounds' 

When it hit the water it created so many beautiful colours. There was blues, reds and yellows. The bomb rocked from side to side and the colours dived off it into the water

I watched in absolute awe at the show that was appearing in my bath. It was by far one of the best bath bombs I've ever tried.

And the scent was beautiful. The orange wasn't too strong as the floral scent kept it mild. However, the scent was still very uplifting.

I would say this bomb is amazing and at £2.95 you can hardly complain. Watch my demo here. 

I give it a 6000/5 and think it is perfect!
