Reviews

Bath Junkies across the country have been featured in many publications, including on Allure's Beauty Reporter blog.

• You pick a base product (a body scrub, lotion, bath oil, or shower gel) and then go crazy customizing it. You get to pick from 15 different tints, then choose from over 200 different scents, and they blend it up for you like Home Depot blends paint. When we stopped by, we asked them to mix the Exfoliating Salt Scrub with purple color and a blend of jeweled citrus, lemon balm, and honeysuckle oils. The result: a fresh-scented scrub that matches our purple-accented bathroom. Kayleigh Donahue, Allure Beauty Reporter blog
