Eucalyptus + CBD Oil Bath Bomb Benefits

Who doesn’t wish to feel revitalized, refreshed, and re-energized? Well, it’s time to pay attention to an ancient and natural approach to improving mood that soothes your aches and pains. From relieving coughs, colds, and sinus congestion, to decreasing inflammation, eucalyptus is the natural “wonder drug” of all essential oils. When combined with the powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial effects of CBD, the benefits are limitless. If you are looking to ease muscle discomfort while gaining mental clarity and alertness, you have found your golden ticket in Eucalyptus CBD bath bombs.

How Eucalyptus Can Benefit Your Baths

With its fresh, minty scent, eucalyptus offers soothing benefits and revitalizing advantages that can’t be found with other essential oils. Highlights include:

• The stimulating aroma from adding a eucalyptus bath bomb to your tub provides a mental boost when you are lacking the pep you need. 

• Full-body relaxation and pain reduction, as eucalyptus can alleviate swelling, inflammation, and muscle pain.

• The powerful antioxidant properties help protect the body against free radical damage, while the minty aroma eases tension and headaches. 

• The ability to stave off that pesky cough or sinus build-up by breathing in

• Locking in that oh-so-vital moisture so it’s smooth to the touch and less vulnerable to itchiness and irritation. 

Shower or bath – with eucalyptus, the choice is yours

While we discuss the benefits of eucalyptus bath bombs, they’re not the only way you can reap the benefits of this plant-based ingredient. As an alternative, you can infuse eucalyptus into your showers. Simply dangle it in your shower (often from the shower head holder), allowing the invigorating aroma to fill your shower with a spa-like experience. The heat and moisture of the shower increase the health benefits of eucalyptus by releasing eucalyptus oil molecules into the air, allowing you to inhale it into your system. 

However, this method causes you to miss out on the key benefits of eucalyptus bath bombs. 

Added advantages of eucalyptus bath bombs over showers:

• Bath bombs not only enrich the air, but also the water itself. This lets the eucalyptus reach all parts of your body, enriching skin and soothing muscles. 

• Showers are great when you’re rushing through your morning routine, but baths are more conducive to taking your time and relaxing, a state of mind we think to be quite conducive with eucalyptus. Whether you’re trying to calm your nervous system or recover after a run, longer baths can help you take full advantage of eucalyptus’s benefits.  

• Bath bombs blend eucalyptus with other ingredients that can further heighten or diversify the effects, a topic we’ll explore more below!

Eucalyptus bath bombs with other beneficial ingredients

Valuable ingredients like Epsom salts, coconut oil, and lavender essential oil will elevate your bath bomb experience to new levels.  

Epsom salts: Combining the cooling sensation of eucalyptus with Epsom salts is a great way to comfort your mind and body. Epsom salts have been long known for reducing inflammation and pain while assisting with muscle and nerve function. Magnesium and sulfates are absorbed through your pores when you soak in an Epsom salt bath, flushing toxins out of your body, allowing your skin to absorb necessary nutrients, and easing muscle aches.

Coconut Oil: Bath bombs containing lavender and coconut oil upgrade your bath experience by offering nature’s healing to your body. With anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory effects, lavender oil is widely known for its emotional and physical comforting sensations. Lavender oil can minimize headaches, lessen anxiety, and soothe sore muscles. Combining this popular essential oil with eucalyptus creates an unstoppable spa-like force. 

CBD: Last on this list but first in our hearts is CBD. This super star ingredient does everything, from providing silky smooth, moisturized skin to settling anxiety and pain. CBD is absorbed through your skin's pores allowing the healing attributes to reach the bloodstream faster than topical application. Your body naturally has receptors ready and able to receive CBD chemicals via the endocannabinoid system, which plays a huge role in mood and pain throughout your body. When CBD is absorbed, it calms your nervous system, causing muscle relaxation, reduction of anxiety and stress, and mood improvement. 

What to Seek When Shopping for Bath Bombs with Eucalyptus + CBD

Avoid unnatural ingredients in your bath bombs

Just as important as the good ingredients used to make your bath bombs, you need to ensure that artificial dyes and dangerous chemicals are not included. Synthetic colors and scents can be hazardous to your health and should not be absorbed by your skin. Avoid bath products that include parabens, which are elements that keep products from expiring too soon. Parabens are endocrine disruptors and can cause allergic reactions among other health issues. 

Organically grown, pesticide-free ingredients, verified through third-party lab testing

Your highest priority when purchasing wellness products is to find clean, safe, and high-quality formulas, ideally based on plants. Take note if  third-party lab testing is used to verify the content and quality of the bath bombs to make sure the label matches what is actually included in the product. For example, when shopping for CBD products from Botanika Life, you’ll see a Certificate of Analysis (COA) showing the results of the tests performed by independent labs. 

While relaxing in your CBD and eucalyptus-enriched bath, you don’t want to be worrying about dangerous ingredients your skin could be absorbing. Choosing CBD that is organically grown and harvested without pesticides and harmful fertilizers is essential for your overall health. The caliber of CBD and its potency is closely related. Choosing USA-produced and GMO-free products is worth it in the long run. 

High-quality CBD (full-spectrum) 

Full-spectrum CBD contains all of the naturally available terpenes and compounds the hemp plant has to offer, including more than 100 cannabinoids, all which enhance each others’ benefits (also known as the “entourage” effect.
