Taking out toiletries out of steam shower?

4 years ago

Do you bother taking out shampoos, bodywash and other toiletries out of the steam shower during use? Wouldn't the plastic bottles they're in leak into the product or the product itself may change its efficacy if left in high temperature areas on a frequent basis. Perhaps steam shower manufacturers publish guidelines on what to leave and not leave in the steam shower during use...

It's steam. Nothing will happen to the bottle or the product.

Plastic is far tougher than human skin...no worries.

Steam rooms get to around 115F. Not sure at what temperature plastics and polymers emit toxic substances, but don't they say water bottles leach BPA if left in a car on a hot day. If so, perhaps toiletry bottles may pose a risk too... after pro-longed periods of time in hot temperatures.
