Why do we love baths and bathing? For many of us, it's the only opportunity for me-time in a frenzied life. So: here you'll find treats for friends and family to turbo-charge the pleasure factor of a good soak - together with a bedtime must-have that we quite simply couldn't life without. Elemental Herbology Five Element Aromatherapy Bath & Shower Collection

We don't know many people who don't love a good wallow in the tub. This set of five miniatures (with a few baths in each good-sized bottle) doesn't disappoint. Each is wonderful: Wood (for rejuvenation), Fire (invigorating), Earth (balancing), Metal (detox) and Water (soothing) - in other words, something there to cope with every emotional need this festive season.
