Village Naturals Natural Mineral Bath Soak Review

Some of the ingredients in this product:

• Chamomile (soothing)
• Spearmint & Menthol (refreshing)
• Epsom Salts
• Vitamins A, B2, C, E
• Sea Salt

I received this product as a gift from a friend to soothe aches and pains after the delivery of my first baby. However, I didn't really like the cool feeling my skin got from the menthol after I sat in the bath for a bit. Although I don't use it as a bath soak anymore, I still give the product 5 stars as I have found other uses for it that, for me, have been outstanding.

First of all, when I have a bad cold with terrible congestion, I sprinkle some of the bath salts on the floor of a hot shower. As they disolve and mix with the steam, the spearmint and menthol help sooth and relax. I think it's kind of the same idea as "Shower Soothers" but those tablets are more expensive and don't last as long. This comes in a 20 oz container and you can sprinkle more in the shower as needed.

I also always kept them close by throughout my second pregnancy. Fourteen weeks of nausea had me desperate for relief and this was one of the few products that helped. Again, I would simply sprinkle some in the tub while running a hot shower and the the fresh scent would help relax and calm me.

My friend picked this up for me at Safeway but I'm not sure where else it is sold. I'm still on my first jar as a little bit goes a long way.
