Everyone needs a spa-day, but what if you don’t have the time or money? This is where we’ve been looking for at-home solutions; after all, we need to get better sleep to help reduce anxiety and stress. If that is what you are looking for, Amoorra is the brand for you. Here at The Amazing Blog, we’ve already featured their Bath Bombs for the Shower. Today we want to talk about their Calm Mood Booster and Sleep Natural Oil both claim to help offer a solution for achieving a sense of peace and tranquillity.

 Amoorra was founded by two busy mums who were struggling to find time for spa-days. They wanted an at-home spa experience without having to worry about cleaning up afterwards. The name Amoorra comes from the Italian words for love and aroma. All the brand’s products are based on the principles of aromatherapy, where they offer a selection Bath Bombs for the Shower, as well as a Mood Booster sprays and blended therapeutic essential oils.

We tried the Calm Mood Booster which comes in a handy blue glass spray bottle. It’s ideal for spritzing making you take a step back and draw breath all when life gets too hectic. We think this is great for breaking a frenetic work cycle or changing the mood. It can be sprayed in the air, on fabric and even on the pulse points, we found with just one spray you get an instant aromatherapy hit. In the blend are antioxidants which have many benefits, including helps fight signs of ageing and protect against environmental stresses.  It contains just a few simple ingredients in water/alcohol base with the essential oils of camomile, cardamom, clove and lemon; which when combined these give an uplifting and zesty finish.

Unlike the Calm Mood Booster, the Sleep Natural Oil is a concentrate of only pure essential oils. We recommend using a few drops of Sleep Natural Oil in a plug-in diffuser which will puff out a fragrant mist helping you to drift off peacefully. There are only three ingredients here with lavender, bergamot and vetiver. Lavender has many benefits to help you sleep, as well as reducing stress and anxiety. The bergamot will reduce nervous tension in the body and elevate mood. Finally, vetiver oil calms the mind and is particularly good for insomnia, fatigue and depression.

When purchasing your 50 ml Calm Mood Booster at £9.99  here and/or the 30ml Sleep Natural Oil at £14.99 here, Amoorra is offering 20% of your purchase using the code Gift2020.

Amoorra - Bath Bombs for the Shower

We find that there’s a 50/50 split at The Amazing Blog as to whether we’re a shower or bath person. Today we’ve found some rather innovative Bath Bombs for the Shower by Amoorra perfect for perking you up in the morning or winding down at night. We love to try anything new that’ll give us that home-spa experience.

Amoorra is formerly known as SHOBU and is a brand founded by two busy mums who wanted to create a home-spa experience, without all the cleaning up afterwards! Being time-poor, luxuriating in a bath was a complete no-no, hence they came up with the concept of this ‘shower bomb’. These Amoorra Bath Bombs for the Shower tablets are vegan-friendly, cruelty-free, natural and all ingredients are ethically and sustainably sourced. They are designed to melt away without any no residue, oils or colour in the shower, while leaving a relaxing aroma that fills the bathroom. It works with the steam to create a home spa experience, meaning that you enjoy eight to ten minutes of steam to help you to relax, refresh and renew. Also, with the added advantage of no fear of slipping on any oily residues. There is a range of six different shower bomb experiences and aromas: Breathe, Refresh, Calm, Peace, Sleep, Awake. There are a range of Mood Booster sprays and oils, which we’ll be covering another time.

We received three of these Bath Bombs for the Shower. The first to talk about is  Peace,  it’s a pale pink speckled tablet with a floral blend of rose and jasmine, inspiring a sense of calm. The rose oil here reduces stress and anxiety;  it stimulates the release of the chemical dopamine, leaving you with a happier mood. The jasmine oil is an anti-depressant, where inhaling the vapours will help to increase positive feelings and uplift energy levels. This shower bomb could be used on either side of the day to inspire and motivate or to give an overall sense of inner peace and calm. The second we tried is Calm if you’re looking to indulge yourself with this rich mix of chamomile, clove and cardamom that brings that luxurious spa into the home, then this is for you! In a white tablet form with amber coloured flecks; the chamomile ingredient is famous for its calming properties and is probably best known for being consumed in tea for a good night’s sleep. Therefore, no surprises to find it here.  An anxiety reliever it helps promote sleep can help to soothe irritability, we found that this little tablet created a serene bubble of steam in the shower. It blends well with the clove with its warming aroma which is known to help enrich the mind. Finally, the cardamom has antibacterial properties that help heal breakouts acting as a skin purifier by clearing pores, plus here it works to soothing the respiratory system. This tablet is warming, relaxing and gives a feeling of tranquillity. Last but not least, Sleep, just like its name suggests, this delicate mixture of lavender, bergamot and vetiver is for relaxing the mind and body before a good night’s rest. If you require a little extra help to drift off, then this is for you. The fragrance of the lavender helps in promoting a feeling of wellness and reduced stress. It enhances the healing properties of the bergamot, which reduces nervous tensions and elevates mood. Finally, this blend also contains vetiver, ideal for reducing tensions and anxiety and giving an overall feeling of relaxation, helping you to dive deep into the world of sleep. Something to quickly mention is that these are NOT to be used as bath bombs they’re specifically designed for the shower use only.  Our favourite? It has to be Peace, we’re always won over by the scent of roses and jasmine. Amoora also offers you an extra 20% using the coupon Gift2020 when purchasing here.
