Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently derived from combining 'bath' (the context of washing) with 'powder' (a fine dry substance): a powder associated with bathing or applied after a bath. This noun+noun compound follows a common, compositional pattern found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the intended meaning.
Etymology
Bath powder comes from a simple image: a fine powder used after a bath to dry the skin and leave a nice smell. That's why it means 'a powder applied to the body after bathing to absorb moisture and add fragrance'.
