Almond Oil - A lightweight, moisturizing oil, almond oil soothes and hydrates the skin. It also provides a protective barrier, keeping the skin soft and smooth after detoxing.
Frankincense Essential Oil - Frankincense is grounding and promotes relaxation. It has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that support the skin’s healing process and enhance the bath’s therapeutic effects.
Texas Cedarwood Essential Oil- This oil is grounding and calming, perfect for stress relief. It has antibacterial and antifungal properties, helping to cleanse the skin and reduce inflammation.
