If the name Kneipp sounds familiar but not in a Japanese context, you're right: it's a German company specializing in personal care products that has been around since 1891. But Kneipp has had a Japan branch since 2008 and when you have a market that is obsessed with bathing, you certainly want to create something for local consumers. And if there's one thing the Japanese like more than baths (or at least, as much as baths), it's cherry blossom. You are probably seeing where this is going, right? Yes, the Kneipp Now and Forever Sakura Bath Salts!
With enough for over 20 baths (the recommended ratio for one bath is 40 g / 1 oz for 200 liters of water) and in a pink color to bring to mind the cherry blossoms, and with a label of two teddy bears holding hands and watching the cherry blossoms, the Kneipp Now and Forever Sakura Bath Salts really speaks to your Japanese sensibilities even before you open it and the fragrance of the cherry blossoms hits you. Made of only natural ingredients, this scents your bath in the most Japanese way!
