Bath salts prove to be extremely beneficial for your skin. They help to soothe your skin and reduce inflammation, as well as detoxifying it from every stressor it experiences on a daily basis (think harmful sunrays and environmental pollution).  Bath salts also encourage healing which can address skin conditions like eczema.

TO HYDRATE YOUR SKIN

Besides removing bad things from within your skin, bath salts can also add good things to it. It can encourage hydration and lower your body temperature, making you feeling more relaxed. This can prevent skin issues like inflammation.

A LITTLE SELF-CARE NEVER HURT

This does not only prevent inflammation but also prepare your muscles to rest, thus helping you sleep better. Feeling relaxed is also really good for some TLC for your body after a long day.
