The Pumkin Spice Latte Bath

PSL Edit 010.jpg

The season on Pumpkin Spice is in full effect and we are here.for.it. If that makes us “basic”, then we BASIC! Honestly fall only officially feels like fall when all the spicy pumpkin smells and flavors come out to play. That is why we jumped head first onto the Pumpkin Spice bandwagon with our PSL Bath Bomb. We are obsessed, and we have zero regrets.

Our Kush Queen Pumpkin Spice Latte Bath Bomb is scrumptious, warm and cozy and will transport you into a lush dreamland filled with multi-colored leaves, layered plaids, and childhood memories. But that is not why we are here today. Okay, It’s a little bit why we're here, but let me upgrade you. With just a couple of added ingredients, we are turning your Kush Queen Pumpkin Spice Bath Bomb into a fully immersive latte experience. It’s kind of weird and you will thank us.

Here is what we will need (and yes it will all be going into your tub!):

  1. Kush Queen Pumpkin Spice Bath Bomb (Obvi.)

  2. 1 Cup of Canned Coconut Milk

  3. 1 TBSP of Instant Coffee Grounds or 4oz Strongly Brewed Coffee.

Now let’s talk benefits. While these may not be normal ingredients that you would reach for when taking a soak, we think you should and here’s why!

A PSL Bath Bomb: There are so many benefits packed inside each of our Kush Queen Bath Bombs, but the most important ones are in the CBD and the Essential oils. In our PSL Bath Bomb, you will find 25mg of High-Quality CBD. This is going to reduce inflammation and assist in the relief of any muscle pain, joint pain, anxiety and more. The combination of Essential oils provides a beautiful aromatherapy experience and can assist in reducing inflammation, improving brain function, making your skin look younger, relieving stress, reducing headaches and even boosting your immune system.

Coconut Milk: Coconut milk contains high levels of Vitamin C which can help to maintain skin elasticity and flexibility. It is also rich in copper, known to prevent wrinkles and sagging skin. Coconut milk is also an antibacterial so it may assist in protecting you from infections. Most notably, coconut milk is extremely hydrating and can offer soothing relief to dry skin while providing an added boost of moisture.

Coffee: The caffeine in coffee actually packs a ton of benefits for your skin. It acts as an anti-inflammatory, is rich in anti-oxidants, can fight the signs of aging, repair UV damage, tighten skin and may even reduce the appearance of cellulite.

So, assuming you are officially convinced, it’s time to run yourself a bath. You want to make sure that your water is nice and hot so that you will get a lovely fizz on your Bath Bomb, but not so hot that you can’t stay in the water comfortably for a full 30 minutes.

While your water is running we recommend doing a quick Dry Brushing. This will help to stimulate your blood flow and open up your pores so that your skin will be ready to absorb all of the benefits these ingredients have to offer.

Once your water is the perfect temperature and depth for your comfort you can add in your coffee and your coconut milk. Give the water a nice stirring with your hand to make sure that the coffee gets fully incorporated into the water. Now you can drop your Kush Queen Pumpkin Spice Bath Bomb into the tub and watch it go to work.

Make sure you allow yourself 30+ minutes to soak that way you can absorb as much of the CBD and caffeine as possible. You could create a soothing, fall-inspired playlist to get you in the vibes, or spend that time meditating on all the things you have to be thankful for and all that the future has in store for you.  Most importantly, breath. Deep calming breaths. The essential oils will begin to transport you and that half hour will fly right by.

Once you have finished your soak you may want to rinse off briefly in the shower to eliminate any coffee or bath bomb that may still remain on your skin. Follow up immediately with your favorite lotion or body oil to help lock in all that silky soft moisture.

Remember, the fall and winter seasons can be very harsh on your skin, especially if you live in a particularly cold climate. Don’t let the hustle and bustle of the holiday season prevent you from taking care of what is most important. You! Nurture your skin, love yourself and make #selfcare a part of your daily routine. Daily.
