Having a long, luxurious bath is the quickest—and most affordable—way to relax, spa-style. Coupled with a soothing scent, a nice bath calms the mind and relaxes the body.

Personal-care brand Dove, recognizing the stress women go through daily, recently introduced the Dove Purely Pampering line. It consists of two new scents: Coconut Milk with Jasmine Petals; and Shea Butter with Warm Vanilla. Both scents come in bar soap and body wash variants, and are formulated with Dove’s trademark ¼ moisturizing cream and “Nutrium Moisture” technology for extra plump, soft and smooth skin.

Dove Coconut Milk is a creamy floral scent, feminine and mild, while Dove Shea Butter is a warm scent, sweet and sexy.

The Dove Purely Pampering line was launched in Fig restaurant in Makati; guests were treated to an afternoon of hand and back massages, and a Mediterranean lunch.

‘Me’ time

Dove marketing manager Carlos Corrales says taking a bath can be an “intimate, personal experience, and Dove Purely Pampering soaps make for enjoyable ‘me’ time, especially for busy moms.”

One such mom is Kelly Misa-Fernandez, model and Inquirer Lifestyle columnist, who recently gave birth to her first baby, Tristan Antonio.

“Being a new mom is overwhelming,” Fernandez says. “I am adjusting to many things—breastfeeding, taking care of the baby, going back to work—and taking baths with Dove Shea Butter helps me have time for myself.”

She points out: “Once I close the bathroom door, no one can disturb me. It’s my time to cleanse, refresh and rejuvenate.”

Another new mom, Patty Laurel-Filart, notes how bath time can be precious: “A nice, scented bath can bring back focus and energy after a long day.”

Filart is a model, blogger and doting mom to her son Theo. She likes the Dove Coconut Milk Body Wash, which is “mild and moisturizing, and gives a creamy lather.”

Costing just  P53.50 for the cream bar, and P175 for the body wash, Dove Purely Pampering is an affordable way to have a rich, indulgent bath time at home.

And the scents linger, which makes one crave for another nice, long bath at the end of the day.
