Ordinary camphor is obtained from the chamomile tree (Cinnamomum camphora). This belongs to the laurel family and grows in southern China, Indochina and southern Japan and is cultivated in the tropics, especially in Taiwan and Florida.

The trees must be about 60 years old before they can be used for the extraction of Camphor. The essential oil is then recovered by careful steam distillation and crystallization of the shredded wood of the roots, trunks and bark.

Camphor has a characteristic, strong, fragrant, aromatic-woody, eucalyptus-like odor. In the cosmetic field camphor is used more as an active ingredient than as a fragrance.

Bath salts are water-soluble, pulverized minerals that are added to water to be used for bathing. They are said to improve cleaning, enhance the enjoyment of bathing, and serve as a vehicle for cosmetic agents. Bath salts have been developed which mimic the properties of natural mineral baths or hot springs.

Among other things, magnesium sulphate has a relaxing effect; athletes use it to calm sore muscles. In obstetrics, MgSO4 is used as the drug of choice for the therapy and prophylaxis of eclampsia-associated seizures. Magnesium sulphate can also be used as a beauty product, e.g. for skin care.
