Though bath oils moisturize and soothe the skin while providing unique aromatherapy experiences, they may not suit all people. Bathers may also wish to boost the beneficial powers of a bath by including more skin treatments along with their bath oils. In these cases, there are a number of choices. Milk, cream, honey, oats and rice bran are all reputed to provide skin soothing properties when added to a bath. Various flowers, herbs and salts are another way to provide a bather with a custom-made bathing experience. Alternatively, a body oil can be applied to damp skin directly following a bath; doing so will provide a moisturizing, aromatic experience similar to that of using a bath oil.
