- Start with a muscle soak using Epsoak Epsom Salts or Primal Elements Bath Bombs, or if a bath is not an option, check out the Primal Elements Shower Steamers.
- Then moisturize your skin with Wild Carrot Herbals Lip Balm, Hand Lotion and Foot Cream.
- If you’re feeling extra, freshen up your nails and cuticles with the Studio Oh! Manicure Set and Nail Wrap Kit, then pack up all your favorites in a stylish Studio Oh! Cosmetic Bag.
- Lather, rinse, repeat!

- 24 drops Aura Cacia Rosemary Essential Oil
