The 2025 Holiday Pre-Sale will be live Thursday, September 18 through Sunday, September 21.

  • Any orders containing products from the Pre-Sale will be shipped or delivered in early- to mid-November.

  • We will contact you via email when your Pre-Sale order is ready for shipping or delivery.

  • If there are additional items you would like to be shipped or delivered before mid-November, those items should be ordered separately.

This is your opportunity to claim your holiday gifts before we get them in-hand and release them to the public. The next time you see them, they'll only be available in limited quantities (if at all!). Stock up while you can!

The honest answer is...maybe.

We use the Holiday Pre-Sale to determine which products our EcoWarriors are the most excited about. If there's a product (or a particular scent or design of a product) that doesn't sell at all during the Holiday Pre-Sale, it won't be available afterwards.

So if something catches your eye during the Pre-Sale, you'll definitely want to grab it now! Otherwise, we make no guarantees that it'll be available later.

For the doers who don't have time for a cold. Our zero waste shower steamers are the most relaxing solution to the common cold (or a stressful week). Menthol soothes irritated airways and alleviates the worst congestion, while eucalyptus controls coughing and relaxes body aches and pains.

Great for when you're feeling a little down, whether you're actually sick or not. Take a spa day break in your daily shower routine. Choose either rejuvenating spearmint for an airway- and mind-clearing boost, or relaxing lavender for the ultimate soothing and calming experience.

Shower Steamers Quick Details:

  • Limited Release! Only available during the holiday season.
  • The ultimate pick-me-up after a long and stressful day
  • Rejuvenating spearmint or relaxing lavender, perfectly blended with eucalyptus and menthol
  • All-natural and biodegradable ingredients
  • Handmade locally and woman-owned
  • Vegan, cruelty-free, and palm oil free

❄️ Pairs perfectly with our limited-release wintergreen and eucalyptus Penguin Conservation soap bar!

Ingredients

Baking Soda, Citric Acid, Corn Starch, Epsom Salts, Sunflower Oil, Menthol, Eucalyptus Essential Oil, Spearmint Essential Oil or Lavender Essential Oil

To Use

Place steamer in the shower but out of direct line of water. The steamer will slowly dissipate, releasing its soothing vapors and easing your body and mind.

We do not recommend using these in the bathtub. You'll lose the steam effects and menthol can be a bit irritating *down there*.

Packaging + End of Life

These steamers will be wrapped in reused kraft paper, which can be home composted.

🌎 You care about the planet. So do we.

Look. I get it. It’s HARD to be an EcoWarrior. Someone who cares about the planet and wants the most sustainable products available - from the ingredients to the packaging to the way that product gets to your hands.

It seems like everywhere we turn, someone, somewhere, is greenwashing us.

But our superpower at A Drop in the Ocean is sorting through the BS, calling it out, and making sure our products are the absolute most sustainable and truly zero waste products we can find.

So on top of all the things we mentioned above about what makes our penguin conservation soap bar so sustainable, here’s a few other things you should know:

  • We’re actually practicing what we preach behind the scenes. Each year, we track and record all of our trash, and we wrote a whole blog post on it. The tl;dr version is this: on average, we produce less than 0.5 pounds of trash each month. Everything from the packaging our products come in down to the Sharpie we use to write “Fragile” on your box is zero waste to its core.
  • We’re an online-only zero waste store - which is highly intentional. It may seem counter-intuitive, but online shopping is actually more sustainable than in-person. I’m a data nerd at heart and I love diving into the research, and there are countless studies that have shown that online shopping is the most sustainable way to get your everyday essentials. Don’t believe me? Check out our whole blog post on the sustainability of online shopping.
  • We ship ugly boxes. Your order from A Drop in the Ocean is not going to arrive in a pretty, branded box. It’s gonna show up in a reused tea box, or a donated Amazon box, or maybe even an inside-out Girl Scout Cookies box. All of our shipping materials are always 100% plastic-free and reused as much as possible, with curbside-recyclable paper tape and a post-consumer recycled paper shipping label. It won’t be pretty, but it will be zero waste.

Got more questions about our zero waste products or our practices behind the scenes? Just send us an email! I’m always happy to chat all things eco.

Eh, it's ok

I was really excited about these. I'm sick, so I was like SWEET these are perfect! But then when I used them in the shower, the dissolved in like one minute and they didn't even have any smell to it. I'm really disappointed because I was really excited about them

I'm so sorry to hear that our shower steamers didn't work for you, Anna - and when you're sick, too! May I ask where you placed them in your shower in relation to the water stream? If you put them directly in the stream of water, they will dissolve quickly, but if you put them just outside of the stream, they'll dissolve more slowly and release more of the eucalyptus and menthol vapors over time!

Great pick-me-up

These are my go-to when I need help to get going in the morning or when I need to feel better at the end of the day. I usually use two in my shower because mine is small and they can't avoid the shower spray, but they still last a long time.

Just ok

These were not what I imagined. They are way bigger and dissolved faster than I thought. They did smell and strong, but didn't last for a full 5 minute shower. Also, they were messy. I had to put them in a silicone bag.

I'm sorry to hear these steamers didn't last long for you. Where are you placing them in your shower? You don't want them to be directly in the stream of water, as that will cause them to dissolve faster. I keep mine close to the shower drain, out of the direct stream and one will often last me two showers (and I take embarassingly long showers...). Maybe try placing them somewhere else in the shower and see if that helps?
