Choosing Your Oil: Not all essential oil brands are created equal, so it’s important to choose a high-quality product that contains pure botanicals and no additives or synthetic oils. Look for a reputable brand. Here are some scent suggestions to get you started:
Lavender: A popular, delicate floral scent that aids sleep and relaxation.
Romance in a Button: Calms the mind with a subtle floral and spicy fragrance. Rose: Helps relieve anxiety and has a familiar scent.
Vetiver: A smoky, woody, sweet fragrance that relaxes the body and improves mood. Citrus oils (orange, grapefruit, lemon): Give your shower a fresh, refreshing feel.
Essential oils that create a pleasant smell! You can also mix two or three flavors. Apply oil: Clothespins should be made of wood to absorb oil. Put a few drops of oil on both sides of the clothespin.
There is no need to moisturize separately because you can reapply oil depending on how often you shower.
Secure the shower head: Now attach the clothespin to the top edge of the shower head to prevent it from getting wet.
As the hot steam fills the shower, the aroma wafts into the air, creating a spa-like atmosphere. If the clothespin doesn’t fit the shower head, you can attach it to a shower curtain or any other place where the steam can reach without getting it wet.
Enjoy the heavenly fragrance: Although there is no scientific basis for the healing and restorative effects of essential oils, they can improve your mood and provide a relaxing and energizing experience. Breathing deeply while taking a nice-smelling shower can provide additional health benefits, including reducing stress, improving digestion, relieving pain, and lowering blood pressure.
Take a few deep breaths and absorb the soothing benefits of your favorite essential oil. Whether you shower in the morning or before bed, the simple, refreshing and calming scent will have a positive impact on your day and night.
However, it is important to note that essential oils can cause side effects, including skin rashes, allergic reactions, breathing problems, and headaches.
If you experience any of these symptoms, stop using the oil immediately. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should avoid using essential oils until further research is done on their effectiveness.
In addition, essential oils can cause side effects in children or pets, so caution is required when used in the environment. Remember: essential oils should never be ingested.
More tips for a sweet-smelling bath
Here are some additional tips to keep your bathroom smelling fresh and pleasant:
Clean the drains once a month: hair and dirt can clog the drains, creating unpleasant smells. Clean up spills with a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Pour a cup of baking soda down the drain and let it sit for a few hours. Next, add about a cup of vinegar to the baking soda. After 15 minutes, rinse off the cleanser with boiling water. This simple cleaning method will help eliminate drain odors.
Check your towels: Face towels, bath towels and handkerchiefs can have a musky smell. Wash and replace weekly or more often. If your towels aren’t soft after washing or have a lingering smell, it’s time to buy new towels. Clean your bathroom regularly.
A dirty bathroom can quickly turn into a smelly bathroom. Continue your cleaning routine by wiping down surfaces, removing visible dirt and grime, and wiping toilets, tubs, sinks, and tiles. Don’t forget the solution. A toothbrush and soapy water can make a big difference in how the bathroom smells.
Make sure there is good air circulation. Too much humidity in the bathroom can cause unpleasant odors. After a shower or bath, open a window or turn on an exhaust fan to let excess moisture escape. It helps prevent mold, which can cause unpleasant odors. Add plants for a natural feel.
Not only do plants add a visually appealing element to your bathroom, but they can also provide a pleasant scent. Choose plants that will thrive based on the amount of natural light your bathroom receives. A bouquet of dried herbs adds an elegant sweetness to your bath. Place a bunch of dried eucalyptus under the shower head to create a refreshing scent with the steam.
Use a diffuser: If you need a long-lasting fragrance in the bathroom, consider using a diffuser. By diffusing essential oils, you can maintain a pleasant and fresh smell. Lavender, peppermint, eucalyptus, lemongrass and many other aromas are known for their strong scents that mask odors and promote relaxation.
Choose an oil that stimulates your five senses and enjoy amazing effects. By incorporating these simple tips into your bathroom routine, you can create a welcoming and refreshing environment that makes every shower feel like a spa experience. So get started today and enjoy the luxury of a beautifully scented shower and improve your personal care routine.
