Looks like cough medicine, doesn’t it? Well it is medicine in a way… for your body and mind. It’s an herbal bath made from the purest natural herbs, so you don’t have to wonder why it resembles Robitussin or some weird potion… nope, no red dyes or preservatives, so this baby is kosher. In fact, it helps soothe your nerves from stress due to its aromatherapeutic essential oils.
It comes in twelve different scents such as Eucalyptus, Lavender, Juniper, Almond Blossom and Melissa. (yep, there is literally an essential oil called Melissa that originated in India). So hey, if your name just happens to be Melissa or you’ve got a friend with that name, then this will make a cute gift for her (or yourself of course).
Each essential oil serves a unique purpose. For instance, Juniper calms and soothes post-physical activity and Eucalyptus helps clear the sinuses if you come down with a bug. Each bottle of this herbal bath is good for at least 10 baths, so it’s not a bad deal, is it?
