These salts fly off our shelves, even in the summertime, which isn’t that surprising given what ghastly summer weather we have here in San Francisco. People who love a bath, me included, find it settles jangled nerves, shuts out an all-too-freaky world and gives one time to reflect on what to make for dessert. I always choose salts when my skin feels dim or ooky or when I’ve just worked out or if I’m feeling achy. While the salts work their physical magic, I let the aromatherapeutic properties of the natural essential oils hit my limbic system (the totally archaic part of the brain we share with all mammals), softening the rough jangly edges into soft smooth circles. If we all took baths, the warmongers would have a way harder time rousing us to fight.
But did you know that bath salts have been used since antiquity to draw impurities from the skin? Makes sense, because salt is used for the same purpose in curing food. Salt is also what’s used in a water softener to, yup, soften the water. That’s why taking a bath with our blend of imported French and Dead Sea salts leaves your skin feeling so much cleaner, softer and smoother. But the salt’s just the medicinal part. The scents are the real reason to indulge. All natural, steam-extracted from hundreds of pounds of flowers and herbs just for you. Citrus is like bathing in an orange grove; signature is uniquely clean and bracing, sweetgrass so fresh and woodsy. Choose one or several and prepare to bliss-out.
