Aromatic bath soaks combine the therapeutic effects of warm water immersion (muscle relaxation, improved circulation, stress reduction) with targeted essential oil benefits. Mineral-based soaks (magnesium, Epsom salt) add transdermal mineral absorption. The result is a deeply restorative experience that addresses physical and mental tension simultaneously.
Apply body butter to damp skin immediately after showering or bathing — within 2–3 minutes of stepping out. The residual moisture on the skin helps the butter absorb more deeply. Focus on rough or dry areas (elbows, knees, heels) and allow to absorb before dressing.
Yes. The Zea Essentials bath and body range is formulated without common sensitisers — no parabens, synthetic fragrances, or SLS. If you have known allergies to specific botanicals (e.g. tree nuts from carrier oils), check the full ingredient list for each product.
Many of the range is suitable during pregnancy, but some essential oils are contraindicated in the first trimester. Lavender, Chamomile, and plain magnesium soaks are generally considered safe. Avoid Clary Sage, Rosemary, and Juniper during pregnancy. Always check with your midwife.
20–30 minutes is optimal for magnesium absorption and muscle relaxation. Less than 10 minutes reduces the therapeutic effect. Using cool-to-warm water (not scalding) extends comfort and improves mineral absorption compared to very hot baths.
