By Unknown
Press Sample! Is that not the coolest phrase ever! Sorry, I’m very excited since it was my first. So, let’s get to it.


Geeks of the World! A very amazing Etsy Seller, Veelightful, has made bath goods just for you!

Foot soaks, bath bombs, lip balms, and cuticle cream made just to whet your whistle. I’m not going to lie - the Dalek-shaped bath bomb was what got me. And I got to try a couple! The Very Amazing Vanessa sent me a Dalek bath bomb and four foot fizzie soak thingies! So take it away, Dalek!


Lavendar Vanilla 
Dalek Bath Bomb

Get your “Exterminate” jokes out of the way now while you can. I know I made a ton when I was playing with it.

If you have read any of my previous reviews, you know I hate vanilla. Hate it. And I’m not a big fan of lavender. It can be very astringent and overpowering. This was a huge surprise. It’s lavender that has been rounded out and lovingly crafted to be soft and wonderful and the perfect aromatherapy to soak in before bedtime. And no, this isn't propaganda. I loved it. I was shocked and amazed, especially since I went in with so much trepidation towards it.  I wish I had three more, so every sleepless night, I could go soak in one of those and then been lifted off to Dreamland. I honestly loved it beyond belief. There are some dried flowers in it, but they are few and easily washed right down the drain. It also left less of an oily residue on my body than some bath bombs do, which could be because it was somewhat smaller than others, but that didn't diminish my joy.

Star Trek Insignia 
Foot Fizzies

Orange with a Kick, Chamomile Peppermint, Moccachino, and Green Tea with Lemon and Honey. I had some problems telling Orange with a Kick and the Green Tea one apart, which was probably just because they were bagged together. I used the first one while playing a video game. Very nice. The perfect mix of Gamer and Girly. I used pretty hot water so that I could let my feet soak as long as I wanted.

I gave one of them away to The Roommate and one to The Editor, otherwise known as Kristin. The Roommate had Moccachino and loved it. The Editor had either Green Tea or the Orange. I’m pretty sure it was the Green Tea (Editor's note: It was the Orange one). I like to give the reader multiple opinions where possible, so share the love! All of the smells though are soft and rounded and lovely. These left my feet feeling smooth but not oily or dry. I let them air dry on a towel so they could keep all those good-for-your-skin oils on them as long as possible and then moisturized them before bed. It was bliss. They were just lightly perfumed and felt loved. It’s pretty awesome.

Kristin adds: The product listing also notes that you can use 3-4 of them in a bath if you'd like the full immersion experience. As I mentioned above, I tried the Foot Fizzie in Orange Bergamot. This was the first foot soak product that I've ever tried so I'm not entirely sure what it's supposed to be like but I enjoyed the experience that I had with this one. It was lightly scented, even when in water, and I managed to sniff my foot after and could smell only a hint of the citrus notes left. The fizzie dissolved entirely in the water and there were bits of dried flowers that were a nice touch (the product listing says that you can also order these without the flower bits).

Final Thoughts:
Honestly, go check her out. She’s just starting out, but she’s awesome. Her bath bombs come in several different shapes, from the Death Star to Hello Kitty. They do not have a strong smell if you want overpowering, but they were a great find regardless. I loved them personally. And I cannot tell you enough how much I want more.
