Dr. Teal's Bath Products - Soothing Body, Mind and Soul

Product Review

Angela Fuller
I first became aware of Dr. Teal's products a few months ago. Browsing the health and beauty aisles at my local Wal-Mart, I stumbled on a section that had several of their products, including the Vapor Bath and Epsom Salt Soaking Solutions. I'm a big fan of using essential oils in aromatherapy and natural healing techniques, and noticed quickly that the Dr. Teal's product labels all featured essential oils in their product description. My first purchase was the "Relax" version of their Vapor Bath Gentle Foam Formula, which features eucalyptus and spearmint oils to promote relaxation. Nothing sounds better to me! In addition to the ingredients, the price (less than $5) is a definite plus, not to mention an incentive to give it a try. What can I say...two weeks and three 1/2 hour bath soaks later, I think I'm a fan for life. I love the fact that the aroma of spearmint and eucalyptus is long-lasting. Not only does it continue to provide relaxing vapors the entire 1/2 hour I allotted for a soak, the aroma lingers in the bathroom long after the water has been drained. Because I loved the vapor bath so much, I went back and purchased Dr. Teal's Oatmeal Bath Soaking Solution for my winter-dry skin. The oatmeal bath contains natural colloidal oatmeal, is fragrance-free, and does a good job of providing relief for itchy, dry skin.

If you are looking for bath and body products to help you relax, calm tense muscles, cool tired feet, or provide relief for dry, itchy or sensitive skin, I'd highly recommend trying one (or more) of the products in the Dr. Teal's line. For the price, I've yet to find a comparable line of products.
