Handmade natural bath bombs, body lotion, soap and body scrubs by By Steven Canada – fun and effective self-care products

Why Natural Skincare & Bath Products Make Everyday Self-Care More Fun

Self-care doesn’t have to be complicated. It doesn’t need a 20-step routine, fancy packaging, or a spa day price tag. At By Steven™, we believe self-care should be simple: it should smell amazing, feel good on your skin, and actually work.

That’s why we make natural bath bombs, lotions, soaps, body scrubs, and skincare that are fun to use, easy to love, and made with ingredients you can trust. Every product is handcrafted in Canada with a strong passion for creating everyday self-care that feels like a treat — without ever being fussy.

If you’ve been thinking about freshening up your routine, here’s why natural skincare and handmade bath products can make a real difference (and why they’re way more fun to use than mass-produced stuff!).

Why Natural Skincare Matters

When it comes to skincare, ingredients make all the difference. Your skin is your body’s largest organ, and it deserves products that support it — not weigh it down.

By Steven products are made with plant-based ingredients like hemp seed oil, jojoba oil, mango butter, and apricot kernel oil. These natural oils and butters work with your skin, not against it. They provide deep hydration, rich nutrients, and lasting softness — all without leaving a greasy finish.

Unlike many drugstore lotions or soaps filled with fillers and harsh chemicals, natural skincare is designed to be gentle, nourishing, and suitable for everyday use. Whether you’re moisturizing after a shower, soaking in the tub, or scrubbing away dry skin, natural ingredients help keep your skin balanced, smooth, and healthy.

The Joy of Scents in Self-Care

Let’s be real: one of the best parts of skincare and bath products is the smell. Scent has a powerful way of shifting your mood and transforming an ordinary moment into something special.

At By Steven™, we love creating products that smell as good as they feel. Imagine dropping a bath bomb into the tub and filling the room with citrusy fizz. Or lathering up a handmade soap that smells like a fresh bouquet. Or smoothing on a body lotion like our Garden Party Hand & Body Lotion, with its uplifting blend of rose, rooibos tea, and palmarosa.

Fragrance is more than just “nice” — it’s self-care. It can calm your nerves, energize your morning, or simply make you smile. That’s why scent is at the heart of every product we make.

Handmade vs. Mass-Produced Products

We all know the feeling of grabbing a bottle of lotion from the drugstore that looks the same as the 100,000 others on the shelf. It works, sort of, but there’s nothing special about it.

That’s the opposite of what we do at By Steven. Each product we make is handcrafted in small batches in Canada. That means more care, more quality, and more heart goes into every single bath bomb, lotion, and scrub.

When you choose handmade skincare, you’re not just buying a product — you’re supporting artistry, passion, and real people who love what they do. You can feel the difference, and honestly, you can smell it too.

How to Build a Simple Self-Care Ritual

Self-care doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. The best routines are the ones that are simple, consistent, and enjoyable. Here’s one of our favorite easy rituals:

  1. Set the mood – Light a candle, play your favorite playlist, and give yourself permission to slow down.

  2. Drop in a bath bomb – Watch it fizz, breathe in the scent, and let your body relax.

  3. Lather up with handmade soap – Gentle cleansing that leaves your skin soft, not stripped.

  4. Exfoliate with a scrub – Buff away dry patches and let your skin glow.

  5. Finish with lotion – Lock in hydration with a silky smooth finish that smells amazing.

It doesn’t take long, and it doesn’t need to be perfect. A few minutes of fun, sensory skincare can reset your mood and leave you feeling refreshed.
