Aromatherapy Bath Products

• bath soaps
• bath salts
• shower gels

These three different types of products are used based on your preference. Bath soaps can be used in place of your regular soaps. These soaps are a combination of aromatherapy oils that help to balance your skin. For example, a soap that is made from vanilla and oatmeal will offer a combination of exfoliates from the oatmeal and the smooth feeling from the vanilla. As you see they work hand in hand to treat the skin as a whole, not just the dry patches. You can combine other fragrances such as orange and cinnamon, Linden and Ylang. All of these combination will pamper your skin in a certain way. They will replace dead skin with moist smooth feeling skin. If your skin is too oily it won’t add more oil to your skin but it will leave you feeling clean.

Bath salts are great to relax in and make you feel rejuvenated when you have the time to use them. Use Chamomile and Marjoram to relax you after a hard day at work. Using more than one will help you in many different ways. Bath salts come in many different blends, including the amount of oil you need as well as foam or no foam. While soaking in the water your skin will absorb the much needed aromatherapy and leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed when you are done. To add to the moment, light an aromatherapy candle in the room.

Shower gels are great when you want to get the aromatherapy but don’t have the time for a nice long soak in the tub. Depending on what your skin needs you can find a shower gel to refresh your mind and soothe your skin in just a few minutes. Shower gels are a quick way to use aromatherapy and give you a brighter day.

No matter which one you choose you will be providing special treatment to your mind, body and spirit.
