Ancient Minerals Magnesium Bath Flakes - Bathing Alternative to Epsom Salt - Soak in Natural Salts - High-Absorption Efficiency for Relaxation, Wellness & Muscle Relief - 8 lbs

This product is my least favorite magnesium for the bath. The flakes do not dissolve as well as the natural Dead sea salt which I prefer. Although Ancient Magnesium Bath flakes recommend using up to the full bag, I only use a few cups which is more than enough for me, as too much irritates my skin! There are other brands of Epsom salts available through Amazon which I far prefer, and are more reasonably priced, as you do not need to use as much in the bathtub!

Ancient Minerals dissolve quickly when added to water in my foot baths. I always sleep through the night after using it. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to feel and sleep better.

When you put your body in hot water with this, your body will be warm for a while. The water turns into like a hot spring. I will definitely put this in my bathtub when I fill it with hot water. When I was pregnant, my legs would cramp up in the middle of the night, but when I got into the hot water with this in it, my legs didnt cramp up, and they didnt hurt either!

Don’t know if this is why that time of the month was easier (pain wise) for me or not,.. but I’m sold!!

Great destress support to add to the bath experience at the end of the day!

We take lots of baths in our house, and this is a must. So relaxing before bed. Also makes a great foot soak. I do wish the bag was larger, we go through this quick.

Switched from Epsom Salts to Magnesium flakes, fantastic bath!! Wish I switched sooner, glad to have now!

I am using this as a natural deodorant. It works better than any deodorant I have ever tried, including traditional clinical strength. I boil water and take it off the heat, I then add the bath salts (1 to 1 ratio), add any fragrance you like (I use rose water concentrate) some say to use distilled water and glass bottles, I did, just in case, but Im not sure that will matter to everyone. You then put it in a spray or roll on bottle. it will feel a little oily until it dries. You may also feel some skin irritation at first. I also experienced a bit of discomfort because after it dries it does not have the slip normal deodorant has, which also seems to have gone away on its own. I used a lotion that had a similar feel to Vaseline or a body powder, to give me that slip, until I didnt seem to need it. If my skin became bothered I just skipped a day. Bear in mind that it is salt, so after a shave or when you have cuts it will sting a bit. Also your skin must be very clean for it to work. It works by preventing the bacteria that causes odor from growing, like the Dead Sea nothing can grow there because of the salt content. Youll sweat, it just wont smell bad. Plus your skin will absorb the magnesium, and it lasts forever, so you get an excellent deodorant with health benefits that is super cheap!!

This bag is absolutely huge! The picture has a standard size permanent marker in it just to give you a size reference. We bought this for our high-energy 2 year old who is an awful sleeper. Since giving her very diluted baths with this a few times a week, she is definitely sleeping better. I can tell this magnesium helps her relax. We will continue to use!

My son is an athlete and loves using the crystals in his bath. Magnesium is great for recover.
