12 Shower Steamers That Will Make Your Daily Shower Feel Luxurious

If you've felt left out of the bath bomb trend, shower steamers are going to be your new favorite product. Not having a bathtub or not being a "bath person" doesn't matter to these little pucks that need very little water to release their wonderful fragrance throughout your entire shower. You simply drop yours on the floor, out of the direct stream of water, and let the shower steamer do the rest.

Depending on the brand you buy, your steamer may last just once, or it could last for several showers. Some can even be used to clean your body or exfoliate away dead skin. However, you should make sure that you read the warnings on all the product labels carefully because they may be packed with essential oils that are safe for the smeller but not for the skin. When you are ready to find the perfect steamer for your next shower, consider these few things: What mood do you want to bring forth, what else would you like the steamer to do, and what ingredients are you hoping to avoid?

Showers are too often treated as a chore. We go in and out quickly, lather up with the products we have in reach, and get as clean as possible before we start or finish our day. Baths are more often used to relax and soothe ourselves, but many of us prefer not to sit in the tub. Sometimes we don't even have one available to us. This is where shower steamers come in. Also called shower bombs or shower aromatherapy tablets, these products offer many of the same benefits as bath bombs without the bath. However, not all shower steamers are made equal. For every good shower steamer, there are many more that have received less-than-stellar reviews. This is why we set out to find 12 of the best of them.

When curating this list, we considered your needs in addition to products that are selling consistently, have gone viral on social media, and have received great reviews from buyers across different platforms. We took it upon ourselves to identify the best shower steamers that offer a lasting scent and harmless ingredients so you can turn your next shower into a spa-like escape without worry.

Body Restore's Calm Dreamy Lavender Shower Bombs are among the highest-rated shower steamers, but what sets them apart from every other product on this list is the reviews they receive. One customer of Body Restore said, "[It's] really easy to use these shower steamers. They evaporate under a slow stream of water and [it] lasts a long time. The scent is very calming after a long day of work or if you just need to relax."
