TGIF, right? If you're looking to indulge in some serious rest and relaxation without leaving the comforts of your home, this lavender bath salt is perfect for end-of-week stress relief. Made by family-owned Pasadena boutique The Soap Kitchen (a true California's Gold fave), this therapeutic mix of Dead Sea salt and essential oils of lavender is perfect for a skin-restoring nighttime soak (perhaps paired with a glass of vino?)

Pour a handful in your bath or use it pre-pedicure as a DIY home spa treatment or for the ultimate at-home aromatherapy experience, pick up one of the Soap Kitchen's soy candles and handmade shea butter bars. We hear the lavender mint soap is especially refreshing. Major plus: all of the shop's products are earth-friendly and synthetic fragrance-free.
