How to Use Essential Oils in the Shower
1. Use Aromatherapy Shower Steamers
Our Shower Aromatherapy Collection features steamers made with pure essential oils. Simply place one on the shower floor—away from direct water flow—and let the steam activate the oils, releasing a luxurious, spa-like scent.
2. DIY Washcloth Method
Add 5–10 drops of your favorite essential oil to a damp washcloth. Place it on the floor near the steam or hang it from the showerhead. The steam diffuses the aroma naturally.
3. Shower Wall Spray
Mix a few drops of oil with water in a spray bottle. Lightly mist your shower walls before turning on the hot water to create a gentle, immersive scent.
4. Shower Diffuser Discs
Use clay or silicone discs designed to absorb essential oils and slowly release their scent during your shower.
Expert Tip: Always choose pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils to avoid exposure to synthetic fragrances or additives.
