Product Overview

Our Organic Shower mist, an easy way to incorporate aromatherapy into your life every time you shower, utilizes the amazing benefits of pure organic essential oils to transform your simple shower into an aromatherapy steam spa.

With just a few sprays, this thoughtfully crafted shower spray, made with only pure essential oils and botanicals infused with ethyl alcohol, allows you to customize your scent experience to make it as subtle or as strong as you like.

When cold temperatures leave you sluggish, reach for the refreshing power of Winter Survival Aromatherapy Shower Mist to shake off the winter doldrums and revive your senses. Infused with a crisp blend of organic essential oils, it restores vitality with every breath. Like a brisk walk through a snow-dusted forest, its revitalizing aroma clears stuffiness, lifts your spirits, and restores focus—leaving you refreshed and ready to embrace the day.

Just give your steamy shower a quick spritz with our aromatherapy shower spray, step in, and breathe deeply.

We spent months experimenting with the recipe formulation, originally using only essential oils. However, since essential oils do not mix with water, we discovered that adding Organic Ethanol helps the heat from the shower steam diffuse and disperse the Shower Mist for a longer period of time with fewer sprays.

The Organic Ethanol, infused with Organic Peppermint and Eucalyptus, contains a mild scent of its own and adds to the natural aroma of the Shower Mist.

Ethanol, also known as ethyl alcohol, is the same stuff that is in beer, wine, and spirits. We use Organic alcohol made from Certified Organic and Certified Fair Trade Sugar Cane.

The mist comes in a convenient 2-ounce travel-size aluminum bottle with a sprayer, allowing you to take your aromatherapy spa experience wherever you go. Shake well before using.

This spray is not just for the shower: you can also use it in any room for a quick, invigorating scent. It can be sprayed onto pillows (under the pillowcase), towels, chairs, couches, as a refreshing room mist, or even in reed diffusers.

Other Uses:

Deodorize your bathroom
Use a quick spray in any room for a quick, invigorating scent
Freshen your yoga mat or gym bag

How To Use

Shake well.

To make your shower experience extraordinary, mist a few sprays (1- 3) into a warm, steaming shower (away from the face) to diffuse the essential oils.

Deeply inhale the scented steam to enjoy the invigorating aroma.

Organic Breathe Easy Eucalyptus Shower Spray

The Shower Mist can also be sprayed on tiled shower walls or corners and on glass doors.

You control the strength and potency of each shower.

Start out with FEWER sprays until you learn the best scent concentration for your aromatherapy experience. Repeat for longer showers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is the inhaled or topical use of aromatic plant essences like essential oils to support wellbeing and help maintain the balance of the mind, body, and spirit.

Aromatherapy has been used by ancient cultures for thousands of years to promote psychological and physical wellbeing.

There are a variety of ways to add a bit of aromatherapy into your life using essential oils. Each essential oil offers a range of unique aromatherapeutic properties, uses, and effects. Different oils can also be combined to create a synergistic blend with its own unique benefits.

So how and why does the aroma of essential oils affect our mood? The way in which our sense of smell is wired to our brain is quite unique among our senses. The part of your brain that processes and interprets scents also deals with memory and emotions. This relationship may help explain why smells often trigger specific memories or emotions.

When we inhale through our nose, the scent molecules in essential oils travel across millions of tiny olfactory neurons that sit on the roof of the nasal cavity.

Once triggered, the olfactory neurons send messages to the olfactory bulbs, two lobes at the base of the brain. But olfactory messages do not stop there. They also trigger brain regions like the limbic system which plays an important role in emotion, mood, stress levels, and behavior as well as heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, and memory.

Essential oils can lift your mood and make you feel fabulous with a simple whiff of their natural aroma. Each oil has a different chemical make-up and therefore a different effect.

The purpose of aromatherapy is to elicit some reaction in the body. Since we are all unique, not all oils will benefit everyone in the same manner. There is some research and a lot of anecdotal evidence that has shown the positive benefits of aromatherapy, such as relief from anxiety, improved sleep, and improved quality of life. But there is still so much to learn.

For more detailed information I would like to point you to our blog “What is Aromatherapy?” especially the sections near the bottom entitled "Safety" and “Research.”

There I explore questions like Safety, Can Essential Oils Be Absorbed Through the Skin? and Are the Effects of Aromatherapy Real or Placebo?

What are essential oils?

What Are Pure Essential Oils?

Have you ever enjoyed the scent of a fragrant flower or herb? The fragrance comes from potent, aromatic compounds called essential oils found in the flowers, stems, seeds, bark, roots, fruits, and other parts of plants. It often requires several pounds of a plant to produce a single bottle of essential oil.

Essential oils not only give plants their unique scents but also help lure plant pollinators and protect plants from insects and other predators.

The chemical composition of essential oils may provide valuable psychological and physical aromatherapeutic benefits for some people.

It is important to note that to be a true essential oil, the oil must be isolated from the plant material by physical means only. Essential oils are NEVER extracted using solvents.

Although synthetic fragrances or "nature identical" oils are available at a much lower cost, only natural plant essential oils will provide any aromatherapeutic benefits.

Can I Use Your Products on my Baby or Young Children?

We often receive questions as to whether our soaps, shampoos, and other items are safe to use on young children.

A baby’s skin, so thin and delicate, is no place for harmful synthetic chemicals.

Sadly, even some of the most trusted baby brands add nasty chemicals to their products.

Read the label on a bar of commercial baby soap or shampoo. Read the label on a bottle of commercial baby oil. Now read the ingredients in Chagrin Valley products.

We recommend starting with our Milk & Honey Baby Soap. We also recommend our two Castile soaps and Carrot & Honey Soap. They are unscented and, as with all of our products, contain no artificial ingredients!

My grandkids use our Milk & Honey bar as a baby shampoo--just keep the soap away from their eyes.

When you think your child is ready, try some new soaps.

As with all new products, it is best to do a skin patch test prior to full usage to test for any skin allergies or sensitivities. If you have any questions or concerns always check with your doctor or health care professional.

It is best to add only one new soap or product at a time and use it for a while before switching to a new soap.

Essential Oils & Children: We do not provide information on the safety of essential oils for use in Children because the available information is very ambiguous and often contradictory. If you are interested in using essential oils with young children please consult your health care professional before use.

Please do not ask us to diagnose your child's skin problems, we are not health care professionals. Our recommendations are based on what our customers have shared.
