About the Product
What is a shower steamer?
A shower steamer is an effervescent preparation adapted for shower use to provide soothing aromatherapeutic experiences. When hot water comes in contact with a steamer, it fizzes and foams to infuse beautiful essential oil notes into the shower steam.
How to use shower steamers?
Shower Steamers are simple to use. Unwrap the tablet and place on the floor or soap self (or on a shallow dish tray) in contact with shallow stream of flowing water. Keep away from direct shower spray and keep your shower steamer tablet tablet dry in between showers.
For more immersive projection: Wet it in hot shower spray and dab its clay onto the surrounding shower walls to create more diffuse points. Rinse starch residue off walls at the end of the shower. Breathe deeply.

How long does each shower steamer last?
SHOWER STORY® shower steamers are designed for repeatable use. While some customers say they have lasted 6-7 uses, Sublime Shower Steamer cubes are designed for 2-3 showers depending on how much singing you do in there ;), while menthol Shower tablets are designed for 1-2 showers. Keeping tablets away from shower spray and splashing water on the steamers intermittently will extend use time while giving a softer experience. Tablets will need to be kept dry between each shower to stop their effervecent reactions.

All ingredients used are water soluble and do not stain the shower surfaces unless left to sit for many weeks. Our shower steamers are designed to dissolve cleanly and any residue can be rinsed off easily at the end of every shower.

Elderly users are advised to install a slip-proof mat in the shower as added safety measure or to contain the shower steamer with a shallow dish.
