Let your thoughts drift off while you relax in this blissful blend of sea salt, lavender buds, rose petals, chamomile flowers, and amethyst crystals. Experience inner calm and peace while the organic essential oils of lavender, ylang ylang, and geranium surround you.

    Crystal Dreams is the perfect prelude to a good night’s sleep.

    Chamomile: known for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, Chamomile is very beneficial as a topical skin care ingredient for calming the skin. This botanical also has a mild sedative effect which assists in relaxing muscles and contains important flavonoids that aid the skin by protecting it from oxidative damage caused by exposure to the sun. Chamomile is known to help in the healing of minor burns, rashes, skin ulcers, abrasions, and irritations, including eczema.

Epsom Salts are known for the ability to relieve muscle pain, reduce stress and relax the nervous system. Additionally, they are beneficial for reducing swelling, eliminating toxins from the body, and replenishing mineral deficiencies.

    Dendritic Salt: a fine-grain salt that has been crystallized into star-shaped crystals in order to help and enhance the aromatic essential oils that are incorporated into the bath salts.

    Bicarbonate of Soda: helps to detoxify and alkalize the body while promoting the elimination of toxins. Soaking in a bath that contains bicarbonate of soda soothes and softens irritated, itchy skin and neutralizes skin acidity.
