Sarah Young (journalist), writing an article for the Independent online asked, "What are Bath Salts, and why should you be using them?"

Sarah tells us that "Taking a soak in a long, hot bath is one of life’s greatest pleasures and, while bath time might be a daily necessity, there’s nothing to stop you turning it into an exercise in self-indulgence.

The key to curing the frustrations of your day, the addition of a few pampering products can quickly transform your humble tub into a heavenly spa-like experience but, if bubbles and bath bombs aren’t quite your thing, you might be interested to learn a little more about bath salts.

Crushed-up minerals that are soluble in water, they offer a whole host of benefits from combating stress and fatigue, to reducing inflammation, soothing infections and detoxifying your skin."

So, what types are there and which one should you choose?

Sarah adds "One of the most popular options in the world of bath salts are the pretty pink ones, otherwise known as Himalayan. A particularly good detoxifier, these salts are ideal if your body is under stress as they work to counteract the electromagnetic energy we absorb from modern day gadgets."

....And that on its own, sounds good enough reason to give these lovely bath salts a try, in our opinion!
