Shower Steamers with Rose Petals and Lavender

These Shower Steamers with Rose Petals and Lavender are the perfect way to make your shower feel like a mini spa.

Materials

  • Heart Shaped Silicone Mold
  • Rose Petals
  • 1 tbsp  dried lavender
  • 1/8 tsp hibiscus Powder  (optional, but it’s what I use to add a soft pink color to my steamers.)
  • 1/2 cup epsom salt
  • 1/2 cup baking soda
  • 15 drops lavender essential Oil
  • 15 drops sandalwood essential Oil

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup of Epsom salts and 1/2 cup of baking soda.
  • Stir in 15 drops of lavender essential oil and 15 drops of sandalwood essential oil.
  • Mix in 1 tablespoon of dried lavender and 1/8 teaspoon of hibiscus powder (optional for color).
  • Incorporate about 1 tablespoon of rose petals, or as many you want.
  • Gradually mix in 2 tablespoons of water to form a paste-like consistency.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the heart-shaped silicone mold.
  • Let the steamers dry overnight, then store them in an airtight container.

Notes

  • To use your shower steamer, place it on the shower floor, away from the direct stream of water but where it’ll get splashed. As you shower, the steamer will fizz and release essential oils, creating a relaxing, spa-like atmosphere. Just breathe in the calming scent and let it dissolve completely while you enjoy your shower.
