Verdant Alchemy | Luxury Magnesium Bath Salts & Aromatherapy
founders note
"This is my go-to bath oil when I’m feeling run down or just need to clear my head. The eucalyptus, citrus, and herbs instantly help me breathe easier and feel more like myself again. For an extra boost, I’ll throw in a few handfuls of the matching Breathe In Bath Salts—the magnesium takes it to another level. If I’m fighting off a cold or feeling foggy, this is always the one I reach for."

"An oil that works wonders to decongest, especially if you are full of cold and generally feeling really down. A much-welcomed addition to the bathroom and worth every penny." - Sam
Fragrance Notes
Why This Works
The same decongestant aromatherapy blend as the Breathe In Bath Salts — eucalyptus and thyme to open the airways, lemon and bergamot to cut through mental fog, cedarwood to ground the whole thing — delivered in a concentrated botanical oil that also feeds the skin. Apricot kernel oil is rich in Omega 9 and vitamins E and K, so while the essential oils work through inhalation, the carrier oil is softening, hydrating, and restoring. In the bath it turns milky and fills the room with herbal-citrus steam. In the shower, it's an instant morning reset you can feel on your skin all day.
FAQ
What is Breathe In Bath & Shower Oil used for?
A decongesting, clarifying oil for the bath or shower that also hydrates the skin.
Breathe In Oil blends eucalyptus, lemon, bergamot, thyme, and cedarwood essential oils in an apricot kernel oil base. The essential oils work through inhalation — clearing the head, opening the airways, and lifting the senses. The apricot kernel oil nourishes and hydrates the skin at the same time. Use it as a morning shower reset or an evening recovery ritual when you're feeling under the weather.
What's the difference between Breathe In Oil and Breathe In Bath Salts?
Same decongestant blend — different delivery and added skin benefit.
Both use the same essential oil combination of eucalyptus, lemon, bergamot, thyme, and cedarwood. The bath, salts deliver it through magnesium-rich mineral salts, which ease the body while the steam works. The oil delivers it through apricot kernel oil, deeply hydrating the skin at the same time. The oil works well in the shower; the salts are bath-only.
How do I use it?
In the bath: add 10–12 drops to warm running water and swirl to disperse. In the shower: apply a few drops to damp skin after cleansing — or onto your décolletage and shoulders before stepping in, so the steam activates the scent immediately. It emulsifies with water into a milky consistency that absorbs without a greasy feel.
Can I use it during pregnancy?
No — not recommended during pregnancy.
Due to the high concentration of essential oils, Verdant Alchemy does not recommend this product during pregnancy. Please consult your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or unsure.
What does Breathe In Oil smell like?
Sharp, herbal, and citrus — immediate and clarifying.
Lemon and bergamot open with a bright citrus lift. Eucalyptus and thyme hit next — sharp, camphoraceous, and unmistakably functional. Cedarwood grounds everything into a dry, woody base. It's bracing in the best way — the kind of scent that makes you take a deep breath instinctively.
