Essential Oils for Body Scrubs

Adding beautiful scents to your bath soaks and body scrubs doesn’t just make them more fun to use, they also have aromatherapeutic benefits! Scientific evidence supports the idea that scent can help change mood. By adding certain fragrances to your soaks and scrubs, you can tailor them to the emotional response you want to evoke, whether you want to make relaxing bath salts, invigorating scrubs, or cheerful soaks. One great way to add scent to your soaks and scrubs is to add essential oils! Essential oils are natural oils extracted from plants, and they carry the scent of that plant with them. When you use essential oils for body scrubs and bath soaks, you’re adding a natural and wonderful fragrance. Many people who are sensitive to certain smells don’t react as strongly to essential oils, too. These oils have the same mood boosting properties of other fragrances, too. Citruses tend to be cheerful and uplifting, lavender tends to be relaxing, fresh herbal scents tend to feel clean and peaceful. When you use essential oils for bath soaks, you’re creating an aromatherapeutic experience. Soaks typically are used for longer periods of time than scrubs, meaning that they can give you the time to reap aromatic benefits, whether that’s peace, relaxation, a clear mind, or a lift to your spirits. Using essential oils for body scrubs is no less important, though. Even though there’s a shorter exposure to the fragrance, it still improves the experience! Make sure whoever is using your soaks and scrubs has the best time possible while doing so. Add some drops of essential oils to your soaks and scrubs.
