These Dreams Co. Rayu and Shoyu soaks have been created as a series of bath products for consumers in Japan to use as a way to elevate their spa time with a touch of culinary goodness.
The bath oils are inspired by shoyu (soy sauce) and rayu (chili oil), which will instantly transform a bathtub full of water into a meal-scented experience. The products come in packets that only need to be squeezed into the tub before getting in and are formulated with the actual ingredients found in the sauces. This includes hot pepper extract in the Rayu to warm the body and soybean seed extract in the Shoyu to help firm the skin.
The Dreams Co. Rayu and Shoyu soaks are priced at 330 yen each.
