The weeks before Christmas are a marathon: shopping, baking, lists that never end — and somewhere in between, a bath that waits in vain. Christmas in the Bath bath salts are a blend of Himalayan and Epsom salt with a Christmas composition of essential oils: fir, orange, cinnamon and star anise. In hot water they dissolve into a bath that smells like a winter forest tucked under a roof, while the amber glass bottle decorates the edge of the bath.
A gift that needs no wrapping
Three hundred grams of salt in a glass bottle with a silver lid and a hand-drawn Christmas decoration on the label looks good under the tree and in the bathroom — so the recipient actually gets two gifts: first a pretty object, then a hot bath. The label says plainly what is inside: bath salts for muscle relaxation. The magnesium in Epsom salt, that is magnesium sulphate, is traditionally associated with relaxing overworked muscles. The scent takes care of the mood.
The Christmas composition is not a random mix: fir carries the forest, orange childhood memories of unwrapping presents, cinnamon and star anise a kitchen where something is baking. It is a composition of essential oils — so it does not smell like a department-store candle, but like the ingredients the festive season is really made of.
Using it is simple: tip a handful of salt into hot water, let it dissolve, get into the bath, take a deep breath and leave the rush outside the door. Close the bottle tightly after use so the salt keeps its aroma. And if you do not know who to give it to this year, give it to yourself — the bath has been waiting all December anyway.
The festive ritual pairs well with the Scent of Christmas soy candle; you will find year-round bath blends among our bath salts.
