Price Range: $20-56

INTRODUCE THEM TO AROMATHERAPY $

For someone new to aromatherapy, tulsi just has to be a favorite body care scent because it is so flexible to different needs! Tulsi is an adaptogenic herb that can respond to your body to destress or rejuvenate as needed.

We Recommend: The Tulsi & Purple Clay Body Bar $20
Tulsi body bar
The Tulsi & Purple Clay Body Bar has a natural aroma of tulsi, an adaptogenic herb with aromatherapeutic benefits, which is calming and stress relieving. It also has notes of cinnamon, clove, basil, lavender, orange rind and patchouliI for an overall spa-like sensorial experience. It is fortified with Brazilian purple clay which confers needed magnesium to the skin.

This body bar is best used in your shower where it can easily be lathered into a cleansing milk. Be sure to take your time and breathe in deeply as you cleanse your body to benefit from its aromatherapeutic properties. For an immersive and luxurious experience, we recommend following your shower with our Tulsi & Ashwagandha Body Oil.

Bundle & Save:
This body bar is a show-stopper on its own, but it is also available in two bundle & save options from our gifting collection: a Tulsi & Palo Santo Body Bar Duo, and a Tulsi & Palo Santo Body Bar Duo with Soap Dish. If you want to try both body bar releases, make sure to bundle & save! And if you’re in the market for a lovely soap dish, this beautiful ceramic dish comes in immaculate packaging and will look lovely in your shower.

MAKE A POSITIVE IMPACT $

For a sustainably-minded friend, this body bar stands-out as one of our most sustainable products through an anti-deforestation sustainable sourcing partnership and including up-cycled facial soap shards!

We Recommend: The Palo Santo & Luma Body Bar $20
palo santo soap
Although our entire line emulates our values of sustainability, the Palo Santo body bar is a little bit extra-special. The Palo Santo essential oil in this soap is distilled from naturally fallen dead wood, which is collected in partnership with traditional communities in Peru, under the supervision of the Peruvian ministry of forests (SERFOR)—reducing demand for deforestation. We swap out the (elsewhere) popular sandalwood ingredient for the sustainable alternative of Luma (also known as Myrtle blossom or Arrayán). And like all Apoterra products, we plant one tree for each item purchased.

The Palo Santo bar also contains upcycled shards of our perfectly-imperfect soaps that were a bit too wonky to sell, repurposing these leftovers to create a bar with extra benefits and reduce waste! The upcycled shards give this body bar a beautiful terrazzo appearance.

The body bars are generously sized at nearly 8 oz to be long-lasting—about twice the size of our facial bars! These body bars are naturally scented, sustainably produced, and hand-stamped with the Apoterra logo for a beautiful display. These beautiful creamy, non-drying, and nourishing body bars can enhance your mind-body connection, all while providing a gentle, uplifting cleansing experience.

The Palo Santo & Luma Body Bar has a natural aroma of Palo Santo and luma, which is rejuvenating and fresh. It is a gorgeous addition to any shower routine, and you can feel good about your impact too!

Bundle & Save:
This body bar is a show-stopper on its own, but it is also available in two bundle & save options from our gifting collection: a Tulsi & Palo Santo Body Bar Duo, and a Tulsi & Palo Santo Body Bar Duo with Soap Dish. If you want to try both body bar releases, make sure to bundle & save! And if you’re in the market for a lovely soap dish, this beautiful ceramic dish comes in immaculate packaging and will look lovely in your shower while extending the life of your soap bars.

TRY A REVAMPED CUSTOMER FAVORITE $$

If you want a tried and true, this newly revamped body oil with vibrant aromatherapeutic properties can be an enchanting holiday gift.

We Recommend: Neroli & Yuzu Uplifting Body Oil $48
neroli body oil
Body care lovers will be thrilled to know that we are re-releasing our beloved Soleil Limited Edition Body Oil with a revamped formula, as the Neroli & Yuzu Uplifting Body Oil. This oil comes in a clear bottle to showcase its brilliant golden color, naturally occurring from sea buckthorn berry and yuzu. It makes a luxe impression stand-alone, but is also available in a trio set of travel-sized body oils (tulsi, neroli, and rose) WITH a dry brush, for an amazing body care range.

This gift is also an all-around safe bet from this list! For some, facial skincare can be a very personal topic, and you may have an inkling that they would not be open to adding new products to their carefully curated facial care routine. But most of us enjoy a new body care product for holiday pampering, especially a new release with this perfectly vibrant, warming scent and a light, non-greasy texture. The brand new Neroli & Yuzu body oil will surely be appreciated.

Bundle & Save:
This oil makes a luxe impression stand-alone, but is also available in a bundle & save Body Oil Trio (tulsi, neroli, and rose) with a FREE dry brush, for an amazing body care range.

GIVE A SPECIAL EVENING $$

For the body care lover, an assorted set of a new body oil, body bar, and dry brush can create a very special evening.

We Recommend: Tulsi Body Care Set $56 (get brush for free)
tulsi body set
Built around our signature tulsi aromatherapeutic scent, this body care set contains our popular Tulsi & Ashwagandha Adaptogen Body Oil alongside our new Tulsi & Purple Clay Body Bar and a FREE body brush add-in. In combination, these products create a whole body care routine to cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize—everything you need for the harsh winter season.

The Tulsi & Purple Clay Body Bar has a natural aroma of tulsi, an adaptogenic herb with aromatherapeutic benefits, which is calming and stress relieving. It also has notes of cinnamon, clove, basil, lavender, orange rind and patchouliI for an overall spa-like sensorial experience. It is fortified with Brazilian purple clay which confers needed magnesium to the skin.

Tulsi is an adaptogenic herb, meaning that it can respond to your body by rejuvenating or de-stressing as needed, so it can help listen to your body even when you feel disconnected! Our body bars are new to the scene, adding some excitement, while our body oil is already a trusted favorite. A free dry brush is the perfect tool for some manual exfoliation to help keep your skin glowing when the weather turns. You really can’t go wrong with this set!
