These floating candles were a cute and inexpensive purchase. I bought them to add romance to a special night for my fiance and myself. But you can certainly use them in the bathtub or if you like the looks of them you can have them floating in water any where in the house. Mine ended up in a bowl on the coffee table after they were used in the tub. My friend even suggested a pool but I think these would be too small for a pool and would get lost.

They were normal candles although small like a tealight. And I had no problem getting them to float. I've had some floating candles that just sunk but there was no problem with these.

There isn't any aroma to these candles which can be a good or bad thing. I like having smelly candles but when you are using oils or other things with scents you don't have to worry about the smells overlapping.

I did have some issues with these candles in the tub. While they are made to be placed in the tub when we got in the water it would pretty much just put out the candle. The ones that didn't get put out would get close to the skin and it was a hassle to keep a watch on them. Like i said before they ended up in a bowl on my coffee table because it wasn't worth the distraction in the bathtub. Another thing was the description said they were suppose to burn for 2 hrs but I found that time was less. While they did get burned at 2 different times the first time was only like 5-10 mins and then the 2nd on my coffee table was close to 30, maybe 45. So not very long lasting.

Overall they were very cute and did add to the atmosphere but I would not suggest using them in the bathtub. And if I was going to have candles burning in the house I would want scented ones.
