When Winter Sucks, This Set Delivers
Let’s face it: January is brutal. The air hurts your face, your hands are cracking like old leather, and no matter how high you crank the heat, your skin still feels like sandpaper. That’s why we created the Ultimate Winter Respite Set—not for some dreamy spa day you’ll “get around to,” but for right now. For the person who stumbles home after dark and just needs to feel human again.
This is the full Sea + Tea collection—the one that smells like green tea and ocean air, perfectly balanced between fresh and cozy. It’s got the body scrub that grinds away dead skin like it’s on a mission, the cream that actually absorbs instead of sitting there like a greasy film, and the bath soak that turns water milky-white with Pink Himalayan and Epsom salts. The body oil? It’s for damp skin straight out of the shower—no waiting, no mess. And the dry mask? Mix it in your palm, slap it on, rinse, done.
But this set doesn’t stop at the bathroom. There’s a candle that smells like a real winter forest—pine and fir balsam, not that fake air freshener nonsense. A tin of Beautea, a ginger and turmeric tea that brews a stunning pink-orange and wakes you up without caffeine. And the pièce de résistance: buckwheat honey so dark and rich it tastes like molasses. It goes on toast, in oatmeal, or straight off the spoon when no one’s watching.
This set is your winter survival kit. Morning shower. Evening bath. Midnight tea at the kitchen counter. The candle burns for 60 hours, which means it’ll outlast February. And every single product is made in small batches at our Owings Mills facility, developed with Cliff House Maine—an actual spa that knows what works on real skin in harsh climates.
Nothing here is for show. People open this set and use everything. Because when winter sucks, you deserve something that doesn’t.
Your Winter Routine, Mapped Out
Morning:
- Start shower with Sea + Tea Body Scrub. Use on wet skin in circular motions, focusing on elbows, knees, heels.
- Rinse off completely. While skin is still damp, apply 1-2 pumps of Sea + Tea Body Oil. Massage in until absorbed.
- Follow with Sea + Tea Body Cream on any extra-dry areas (hands, feet, anywhere tight or flaky).
During the Day:
- Brew a cup of Beautea—one teaspoon per 8oz of hot water, steep 5-7 minutes. Add Buckwheat Honey if you want it sweet.
- Light Winter Forest Luxe Candle in your living space. Trim wick to ¼ inch before each burn.
Evening Bath:
- Run a warm bath. Add 2-3 scoops of Sea + Tea Bath Soak directly under running water.
- Soak for 15-20 minutes. The salts will soften the water and relax tight muscles.
Weekly Mask:
- Mix 1-2 teaspoons of Sea + Tea Dry Mask with water in your palm until it forms a paste.
- Apply to clean face, avoiding eyes. Leave on 10-15 minutes, rinse with warm water.
- Follow with Sea + Tea Body Cream as a facial moisturizer if needed.
Throughout Winter:
- Use Buckwheat Honey in tea, oatmeal, on toast, or in baking. It's intense—a little goes a long way.
- Keep the Winter Forest candle burning during meals, work-from-home hours, or whenever you need the room to feel less sterile.

Why Choose the Ultimate Winter Respite Set?
- The Spa Formula: Sea + Tea was developed with Cliff House Maine, an actual spa that uses these products in treatments. They work on real people in harsh winter climates.
- Small Batch, Owings Mills: We make everything by hand in Maryland. Small batches mean we can check every formula, smell every batch, catch anything that's off.
- Complete Winter Coverage: This isn't just skincare. It's bath, body, face, tea, honey, and ambiance—everything you need when winter drains you.
- No Phthalates, Parabens, or Sulfates: We list every ingredient because we're not hiding anything. Natural and organic where it matters.
- The Buckwheat Difference: Most gift sets skip the pantry. We included buckwheat honey because it's polarizing and interesting—either you love its molasses depth or you don't.
- 60-Hour Candle Burn Time: The Winter Forest candle lasts through February. Real pine and fir balsam, not synthetic pine scent.
- People Use Everything: Nothing in this set sits on a shelf for decoration. The scrub gets used in showers. The honey goes in oatmeal. The candle burns during dinner.
