Bath bombs from Margaret River start in a garden. Celestial Salts builds its bath blends around flowers it says it grows and hand-picks without sprays. Its set of four handmade bath bombs pairs bicarbonate soda and essential oils with those home-grown botanicals. There are two scent blends in the pack: French lavender with chamomile, melissa and vetiver, and a simpler lavender and German chamomile. Four divides neatly into two to keep and two to give.
What the gardens can't supply, Celestial Salts sources from producers it names on its own site, among them Vasse Valley for hemp seed oil and WA Lake Salt. It's a generous habit, and it tells you where a product really begins.
The other item here is a bamboo-handled body brush, for dry brushing or for the bath or shower. Put the two together and the gift is done. That's everything on this shelf for now, and it will grow as more makers join. Our South West gift guide has plenty more to pair them with.

Questions
Where can I buy bath bombs made in Margaret River?
From Celestial Salts' own website. The maker doesn't publish a street address, so order online rather than planning a trip around it.
What's in Celestial Salts' bath bombs?
Bicarbonate soda, essential oils and botanicals the maker says it grows without sprays. The four-pack has two scent blends: French lavender, chamomile, melissa and vetiver, and lavender with German chamomile.
How do you use a bamboo body brush?
Either dry, before a shower, or wet, in the bath or shower. Celestial Salts sells one with a bamboo handle, and it pairs well with the bath bombs as a gift.
