Self-Care with Chado: Christmas Tea Bath Soaks
Christmas gifts are on everyone’s minds right now and it can be stressful to find the perfect gift for friends and family. Shopping in malls and stores can be overwhelming, well here at Chado Tea we have you covered this year. While any gift given is a thoughtful one, a gift made by hand is an extra special one. Self-care is always key, but even more so during the holiday season when we are running around shopping, going to events, and prepping for hosting duties. Today we have two Christmas Tea Bath Soak recipes ideal for a little self-care session or as gifts for family and friends.
