Lake Michigan Chest Rub: A Lavender and Eucalyptus Aromatic Balm Save

Our Lavender Lake Michigan Chest Rub is an aromatic balm designed to be massaged onto the chest. Shea butter and botanical oils moisturize the skin, and as the balm warms it releases a fresh herbal aroma of lavender and eucalyptus, the same pairing behind the rest of our Lake Michigan line.

What it is, and what it is not

This is a cosmetic balm: a rich, shea butter based rub that leaves skin feeling moisturized and smelling fresh. It is not a medicine, and we do not make any health claims for it. Think of it as a body butter with a stronger herbal aroma, made for a slow evening routine.

The aroma

Note What you notice
Eucalyptus Clean, green and airy
Lavender Soft, floral and herbal
Together Fresh and bright, like a windy day on the lakeshore

Many people enjoy the scent and find it relaxing to smell at the end of the day.

How to use it

  • Read and follow the directions and warnings on the label.
  • Scoop a small amount with clean, dry fingers.
  • Warm it between your palms and massage it onto the chest.
  • Keep it away from the eyes, and wash your hands after applying.

Because it is a rich balm, a small amount is enough. Pull on a soft cotton shirt afterward so the balm stays on your skin rather than your sheets.

Storing the balm

Close the lid tightly and store the balm somewhere cool and out of direct sun. Like any shea butter balm, it softens when warm and firms up when cool, which is normal. Keep it out of reach of children.

Pairing and gifting

If you like the aroma, the Lake Michigan essential oil carries the same lavender and eucalyptus pairing for your diffuser, and the Lake Michigan body butter offers it in a larger jar for hands, elbows and heels. Tuck the chest rub into a cozy winter care package with a mug and a pair of wool socks, or build a set in the Gift Box Builder.

Frequently asked questions
