Benefits & Uses of Epsom Salts:
Relieves Sore Muscles :An Epsom salt bath is an excellent way to soothe sore muscles, cramps, bruises, and joint pain. It’s especially beneficial after workouts. Soaking in an Epsom salt bath also helps with relaxation and stress relief. Add 2 cups of Epsom salts to a warm bath, stir to dissolve, and soak for 10-15 minutes for best results.
Exfoliates the Skin Dead skin cells can clog pores and cause blemishes. Exfoliation keeps your skin healthy, radiant, and fresh. Massage handfuls of Epsom salt over your body in the shower or bath for a home spa treatment that leaves your skin smooth and refreshed.
Deep Facial Cleanser: Your face needs cleansing and exfoliation just like the rest of your body. Mix 1 teaspoon of Epsom salt with warm water in your hand, gently massage onto your face, and rinse thoroughly. This treatment exfoliates, refreshes, and helps clear blackheads and acne.
Removes Splinters :Splinters can be tricky and painful to remove. Instead of using needles, soak the affected area in an Epsom salt bath. The salts will naturally draw out the splinter and cleanse the skin.
Lip Balm & Exfoliator :Dry, chapped lips can be both unsightly and painful. Create a DIY lip balm by mixing equal parts of our organic coconut oil (available below in related products) and Epsom salt. Apply generously for smooth, hydrated lips.
