Tips & Notes

•NOTE: Anhydrous shower melts-high butter content is intentional for this product type.
•Place one melt on the shower floor (away from direct water flow) and let the steam release the EOs.
•These are NOT bath bombs-they are meant to melt slowly in the heat, not fizz.
•Store in a cool place; cocoa butter melts at ~34C.
