2. Skin Benefits: Rose petals contain natural oils that hydrate and nourish the skin, while Epsom salts gently exfoliate and soften, leaving your skin glowing.
   
3. Aromatherapy: The scent of roses is known for its mood-enhancing properties, promoting feelings of peace and well-being.
   
4. Detoxification: Sea salts help to draw out impurities from the skin, relieve muscle tension, and support overall wellness.
