Pamper your Valentine with relaxing shower steamers — a 15-pack is down to $20
'They smell heavenly': These giftable, mess-free scented tablets last for up to 30 minutes each.
Spa days are lovely, but they're also very expensive. If you're on the hunt for a scent-sational treat that can give your Valentine a luxurious mini spa experience over and over again, Lavender Body Restore Shower Steamers fit the bill. You get a pack of 15 for just $20, down from $30. (You're lucky if $20 will cover the tip after a spa service these days!)
These little pucks are made with baking soda and essential oils. If your Valentine doesn't have access to a bath, this is the best relaxing alternative.
Why is it a good deal? 💰
At $20, these steamers are only about $1.33 each, and the price hasn't dropped much lower than that in the past couple years. Don't forget to keep a few for yourself for a little R&R — there's more than enough to go around, especially with this kind of discount.
Why do I need this? 🤔
Bath bombs are wonderful, but sometimes we just don't have time for a long, leisurely soak. Enter shower steamers: Each disk is made with baking soda and essential oils. Hold one under running water or place it on the shower floor, then breathe deeply as it dissolves and releases a delicate, relaxing scent. There's no need to fill a tub or wait ages for the steamer to dissolve.
Best of all: It doesn't leave a mess, because no one needs a gift that they have to clean up after. Each steamer lasts between 10 and 30 minutes — plenty of time even for longer showers. Some reviewers even say the steamers can last longer than one shower if they aren't in a direct stream of water.
What reviewers say 💬
More than 10,000 reviewers give these steamers five-star ratings.
Pros 👍
"I love these shower steamers!" wrote one satisfied shopper. "They smell heavenly and last through my entire shower and then some. I am so addicted to these that I have them on a subscription. The scent fills my bathroom and then into my bedroom and hallway when I open the door after my shower!"
"These are so relaxing, they smell amazing and really do help calm you down and make you feel like you're in a spa. I got these as a gift and have purchased them two more times," said another relaxed reviewer.
A third five-star fan shared, "These shower bombs totally transformed my normal shower routine ... I always shower just before bed, and thought I would try these to pamper myself a little! ... I also really like that these are individually packaged — I can envision taking one on a weekend trip or even giving one with a friend in a little care package if she seems to need a little pick-me-up, thanks to the portability."
Cons 👎
While most reviewers raved about these steamers, one customer pointed out, "One downside to these is that they do temporarily color-stain your tub in a round shape from where the fizzer was placed. It's not horrible, and it can be wiped away, or it'll wash away after a bit."
"It has too strong of [an] aroma for relaxation," a final reviewer noted. "[It] can make a cute gift, nice packaging. I just thought it was too aromatic. It stimulates instead of relaxes."
Want to mix things up? This multipack comes with a variety of scents: Eucalyptus & Mint, Citrus, Lavender, Jasmine, Bergamot Spring and Chamomile, all made with essential oils.
And if you want to give your tootsies a little love too, Amazon shoppers love this scrubber:
This little mat is lined with flexible bristles to massage your feet while you bathe. It also helps exfoliate dry skin and smooth calluses.
"Suction is great. And this mat feels amazing, especially after a long, hard day at work," gushed an enthusiast. "At first it tickled, then it was awesome. I run around barefoot pretty much all day. Some days, my feet get disgusting and it's hard to get the gunk off. This gets it all off!"
