Susanne Kaufmann St. John’s Wort Bath

An award-winning bath powder with St. John’s wort, cocoa butter and milk protein to nourish dry skin, replenish moisture and restore lasting comfort.

Transform bath time into an enveloping ritual for dry, dehydrated or uncomfortable skin with Susanne Kaufmann St. John’s Wort Bath.

This delicately effervescent powder dissolves into warm water, surrounding the body with a nourishing blend of St. John’s wort extract, cocoa butter, olive oil, beetroot extract and hydrolyzed milk protein. Together, these conditioning ingredients help soften the skin and reinforce its natural protection against moisture loss.

Unlike a traditional foaming bath, the formula creates a gentle bubbling effect before settling into a velvety soak. Skin emerges feeling supple, comforted and beautifully nourished without a heavy or greasy residue.

Recommended For

St. John’s Wort Bath is especially suited to:

• Dry or dehydrated skin
• Sensitive or easily irritated skin
• Seasonal dryness and winter-stressed skin
• Skin that feels tight, rough or uncomfortable
• Mature skin needing additional nourishment
• Anyone seeking a richer alternative to a traditional bath soak
• Evening rituals centred on comfort and restoration

The formula contains fragrance and hydrolyzed milk protein. Those with fragrance sensitivities, highly reactive skin or known milk-protein allergies should review the ingredient list carefully before use.

Why It’s Different

St. John’s Wort Bath is neither a traditional bath salt nor a foaming bubble bath. It is a nourishing powder designed to condition the skin while you soak.

The formula combines moisture-replenishing oils and butters with hydrolyzed milk protein, which forms a light conditioning film over the skin. Sodium bicarbonate and citric acid create a gentle effervescent reaction when the powder meets water, helping disperse the ingredients throughout the bath.

The result is a velvety bathing experience that leaves dry skin noticeably softer and more comfortable.

Texture and Bathing Experience

The fine powder begins to gently fizz and dissolve as soon as it touches water. It does not create abundant foam; instead, it transforms the water into a soft, conditioning bath with a delicate fragrance.

Because the formula contains cocoa butter and olive oil, the skin feels nourished and supple after bathing rather than stripped or tight.

How to Use

1. Fill the bathtub with comfortably warm water.
2. Add five to seven teaspoons of St. John’s Wort Bath to the full bath.
3. Allow the powder to dissolve and gently effervesce.
4. Swirl the water to distribute the nourishing ingredients.
5. Immerse the body and relax for approximately 20 minutes, or for as long as feels comfortable.
6. Step out carefully, as the nourishing oils may make the tub slippery.
7. Pat the skin dry and follow with body cream or oil if additional nourishment is desired.

For external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes and discontinue use if irritation occurs.

Important Storage Instructions

Sodium bicarbonate and citric acid create the powder’s natural effervescent effect when they come into contact with water.

Always keep the jar and lid completely dry. Do not use wet hands or a wet spoon to dispense the powder. Water entering the container may activate the formula inside the sealed jar and cause pressure to build.

Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place.

Due to the use of natural active ingredients, the appearance of the product may vary without affecting its performance.

Loshen & Crem’s Recommendation

This is the Susanne Kaufmann bath we recommend when the skin feels exceptionally dry, tight or depleted—especially during an Edmonton winter. The velvety water and nourishing finish make it feel more like full-body skincare than a conventional bath product.

For very dry skin, follow with Susanne Kaufmann Body Butter while the body is still slightly damp. You can also apply Marigold Body Oil with slow, sweeping movements to extend the feeling of comfort and turn the ritual into a beautiful moment of evening care.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Susanne Kaufmann St. John’s Wort Bath?

Susanne Kaufmann St. John’s Wort Bath is a 400 g nourishing bath powder for dry, dehydrated or uncomfortable skin. It combines St. John’s wort extract, cocoa butter, olive oil and hydrolyzed milk protein to soften the skin and help protect against moisture loss.

Is it a bath salt or a bubble bath?

Neither. It is a conditioning bath powder that creates a gentle effervescent effect when added to water. It will bubble lightly as it dissolves but does not produce a traditional layer of foam.

Why does the powder fizz?

The formula contains sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. These ingredients react when they contact water, creating a gentle effervescent effect that helps distribute the powder through the bath.

How much should I use?

Add five to seven teaspoons to a full bath of comfortably warm water.

How long should I soak?

Approximately 20 minutes is ideal, although you may adjust the bathing time according to your comfort.

Is St. John’s Wort Bath suitable for sensitive skin?

The brand lists it as suitable for sensitive skin. However, the formula contains fragrance and milk protein, so anyone with known allergies or highly reactive skin should review the ingredient list and use it cautiously.

Can children use St. John’s Wort Bath?

Previous brand and retailer descriptions presented this product as family-friendly and suitable for children over three months. However, the current Susanne Kaufmann product page does not publish a minimum age. For babies or young children, follow the current package directions and consult a pediatric healthcare professional when there is eczema, an allergy or significant skin sensitivity.

Does it contain milk?

Yes. The formula contains hydrolyzed milk protein, which helps condition the skin and reduce moisture loss.

Is St. John’s Wort Bath vegan?

No. Because it contains hydrolyzed milk protein, it is not considered vegan.

Does the product need to be rinsed off?

The formula is designed to rinse away cleanly. You may briefly rinse the body with fresh water if preferred, particularly if your skin is sensitive to fragrance.

Why must the jar remain completely dry?

Water activates the sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. If moisture enters the closed container, the powder may begin bubbling inside and create pressure. Always dispense it with completely dry hands or a dry spoon.

Will it leave the bathtub slippery?

The cocoa butter and olive oil may make the bath surface slightly slippery. Step out carefully and rinse the bathtub after use.

What is the difference between St. John’s Wort Bath and Mallow Blossom Bath?

St. John’s Wort Bath is a nourishing, effervescent powder designed primarily for dryness and moisture loss. It creates a velvety soak without significant foam.

Mallow Blossom Bath is a liquid bubble bath that produces soft foam and focuses on a calming aromatic experience with mallow, lavender, rosemary, sage and cedarwood.

What should I apply afterward?

For additional nourishment, apply Susanne Kaufmann Body Butter or Marigold Body Oil while the skin is still slightly damp. If the skin already feels sufficiently conditioned, additional moisturiser may not be necessary.

What size is St. John’s Wort Bath?

The jar contains 400 g of bath powder.

Why Discover It at Loshen & Crem?
