Aromatherapy Shower Steamers Vs Bath Bombs
Shower steamers are becoming more popular in the marketplace. Shower steamers are designed to produce a burst of fragrance while bathing or showering. They are usually made with essential oils, botanical extracts, or organic ingredients mixed into a liquid that quickly evaporates to spread the scent throughout the room. This type of product also moisturizes skin all while creating an uplifting atmosphere.
Bath bombs are a type of bath item that people put into their tub or a hot bath to release a fizzy solution. The most popular type of bath bomb is the fizzy, colorful bomb that dissolves in water and leaves behind a clumpy, soft mixture. People often use these products to help with stress and depression.
Don’t forget about my uplifting orange shower steamer that I have posted. I also have a few sugar scrubs that leave your skin feeling AWESOME~ A Valentine (Violet Scent) Scrub, peach-mango sugar scrub and for the kiddos, a Disney “Soul” inspired sugar scrub.
