Must Try Product: The Moon Priestess Pink Salt Soak by Aquarian Soul

A cure for the bath-time blues

by Jenna Igneri

If anyone knows anything about me, it’s that I cherish my time in the bathtub. I’ve tried many different types of oils, salts, soaks, and bombs in the past, but it wasn’t until I stumbled across this miracle product, the Moon Priestess Pink Salt Soak by Aquarian Soul, that I stopped my search for the perfect bath solution. No other product has ever yielded results quite like this one.

Made with pink Himalayan sea salt—one of the purest salts on Earth—the soak offers so many benefits. It balances electrolytes, eliminates toxins, relaxes muscles, helps your body absorb nutrients, and improves your blood circulation. The soak also contains red rose petals and pink rosebuds, making for a calming, beneficial, and straight-up fabulous and pleasantly scented bathing experience. I mean, who wouldn't enjoy luxuriously floating in a bath of roses?

I chose to try out the soak on the last full moon as sort of a spiritual cleansing experience. After soaking for a good 30 minutes or so (along with music, candles, and ambience, or course) I emerged feeling relaxed and a little bit light headed—the result of the salt literally drawing toxins out of my body. When I woke up the next day, I hopped out of bed feeling better than I have ever felt waking up for work (I am a bath person, not a morning person). Instead of snoozing through my 7:15 am alarm and rushing out the door like I do most mornings, I woke up all on my own at 7 feeling energized and just overall damn good.  

Now, I’m not saying everyone will have the same experience as me, but detoxing with pink Himalayan salt really does have its benefits, and you’ll definitely feel a difference the next morning, if not immediately after. Whether you’re bathing for a moon ritual or simply indulging in a little R&R, this detoxing salt soak is a great way to start your day with a clean slate—combatting everyday stresses and all of the toxins we encounter throughout the week.

You can pick up an 8 oz jar of this magical soak for $30 online at Aquarian Soul.
