Eucalyptus has a slight minty smell and is handy for when the dreary weather has you feeling glum or your nose is stuffy. These shower bombs are so great, you'll want to keep them for yourself! But of course, you know deep down that you should share the beauty wealth with your bestie and loved ones. Each gift set contains six shower bombs made from pure essential oils, and they're labeled for various moods — including Calm, Breathe Easy, and Serenity. These shower bombs come in a nice white and gray marble-effect box, so they like gifting it to loved ones, including hard-to-shop-for family members. Made with vegan-friendly, cruelty-free ingredients, these shower steamers work best with light steam, rather than being fully submerged in water or in a heavily steamed area.

The Best

Citrus smells such as orange, lemon, grapefruit, lime, or a combination of all four fruits. They’re great for when you need a burst of energy in the morning before you start work or run a bunch of errands. These shower steamers are made from menthol crystals and essential oils, are vegan, and come in five spa-inspired scents that mingle with the steam for that feeling of bliss. Place one on the floor of your shower, and when the water drizzles on the tablet (keep it away from the direct stream of water), it will gently fizz, releasing those therapeutic scents. Because these are oil-based pods, we suggest taking precautions in the shower to prevent slipping.

Lavender has a powdery floral scent that will help calm you down before bed or relax when you’re stressed. Another bonus? According to board-certified dermatologist Anna Chacon, M.D., they don’t leave behind grittiness or slippery residue on your shower floor. You genuinely can't go wrong either way, but she recommends reading the label to get a better idea of the ingredients. Best Ingredients You can reuse most shower steamers a few times. Keep in mind that you have to reactive the steamer each time you use it by sprinkling a few drops of water onto the disk. To make your shower steamer last longer, ensure that it doesn’t get too wet. It should only get a few drops of water on it to activate and then should be kept out of the stream of the shower. If it gets soaked, then it will begin to dissolve.To reap the benefits of shower steamers, avoid harsh chemicals and synthetic fragrances, especially if you have sensitive skin. Instead, look for ones that contain pure essential oils that will not only smell amazing but also enhance your mood. If you want to go beyond organic ingredients, you can look for products that are third-party certified and contain vegan, cruelty-free, or even sustainable ingredients. For more information, the steamers come with an e-book about all things essential oils and aromatherapy.
