Ancient civilizations first cultivated the art of aromatherapy to promote health, relaxation and well-being. The first cosmetics were handcrafted from raw, natural materials such as beeswax and essential oils because those were the only materials available.

Today, with the plethora of chemical-laden, private-labeled products on the market, individuals who are seeking a therapeutic home spa experience are returning to natural, handcrafted products. In these stressful times, with the constant onslaught of noise, traffic and non-stop communication, the bathtub may very well be the last sanctuary. After a stressful day, a steamy aromatherapy soak, followed by a body scrub and a foot massage is a great way to unwind and reconnect with your center. Bö Essentials products are designed to help turn a regular bathroom into a home-spa, anytime of the day or night, at a fraction of the cost of spa treatments. We offer natural spa quality therapies for body and home that re-create the spa experience in your own space. Creating natural alternatives that highlight the understated elegance of nature, promoting wellness and relaxation in stressful times. Inspired by generations and made from nature's bounty for total peace of mind.

Bö Essentials, LLC is a family operated manufacturing business, inspired to promote beautiful skin, health and wellness by producing 100% natural spa quality skin care products from nature's bounty. As a family, and as a business team, we pride ourselves on promoting personal and environmental health with products made from the finest quality raw materials. Our mineral-rich sea salts are harvested from the Atlantic Ocean and contain important trace minerals for nourishing the skin. Our vegetable oils, butters and waxes are expeller-pressed, and still contain nourishing vitamins and essential fatty acids of their respective plants. Our therapeutic-grade essential oils are pressed or distilled from flowers and herbs, such as lavender, mint, and rosemary, and contain the essential properties of their derivative plants. Our bar soaps are natural vegetable soaps, made from saponified vegetable oils, which create a rich, bubbly lather that does not strip or dry the skin. Most mass-produced soaps contain tallow, an animal fat, as well as irritating detergents.

Bö Essentials never has, and never will, test its products on animals, or use a raw material that is tested on animals. We believe in environmental responsibility, and ask that our customers recycle and reuse the bottles, jars, tins and packaging material that they receive with their Bö Essentials orders. Most Bö Essentials products are vegan as well!
