Create DIY Shower Steamers with 3 Simple Ingredients
Experience the rejuvenating benefits of essential oils with DIY shower steamers. With just three simple ingredients, you can create a spa experience right in the comfort of your own home.
What is a shower steamer?
If you’re a fan of bath bombs, you’ll love shower steamers. Like bath bombs, these melt in your shower and release essential oils, offering a unique and refreshing experience. Whether you prefer peppermint’s energizing scent or lavender’s soothing aroma, shower steamers are an excellent way to enhance your shower routine.
Which oils should you use?
I love using doTerra essential oils when making shower steamers. These are my top three favorites:
- The doTerra Balance is a blend of essential oils that fosters serenity, calmness, and peacefulness with its grounding and soothing aroma.
- The doTERRA Eucalyptus Blend is the result of carefully selecting five distinct species of eucalyptus. Its invigorating scent has the power to refresh and rejuvenate.
- doTerra Grapefruit is known for its energizing and invigorating aroma. It helps create an aromatically uplifting environment.
