Learn how to turn your bath into a calming ritual with Gracie Jay's Lavender Soaking Salts. Step-by-step instructions for the perfect soak.
Quick answer
Add 1–2 tablespoons of Gracie Jay's Lavender Soaking Salts under warm running water, then soak for 20 minutes to let the organic lavender and mineral-rich salts ease tension.
Why choose lavender soaking salts over bath bombs or oils
Bath salts dissolve evenly without residue, making cleanup simple. The mineral salts (like magnesium and potassium) can help soothe sore muscles, while the lavender essential oil promotes calm. Gracie Jay's version is crafted for tea lovers who appreciate a gentle, ritualistic experience—no fizz, no artificial colors, just pure relaxation.
Step-by-step guide to a relaxing lavender bath
- Fill the tub with warm water: Turn on the tap and let the water run until it's comfortably warm—around 98–100°F (37–38°C). Hot water can dry your skin and reduce the benefits of the essential oils. Test the water temperature with your wrist to avoid overheating.
- Add the soaking salts under the running water: While the water is still running, sprinkle 1–2 tablespoons of Gracie Jay's Lavender Soaking Salts directly under the faucet. The moving water helps dissolve the salts evenly. Using too much salt can leave a gritty residue; start with less and adjust next time.
- Swirl the water to blend: Use your hand to gently swirl the water until the salts are fully dissolved and the lavender scent is evenly dispersed. This also prevents any undissolved crystals from settling on your skin. If you have sensitive skin, dissolve the salts in a cup of warm water first before adding to the bath.
- Soak for 20 minutes: Step in and relax for at least 20 minutes. Breathe deeply and let the warm water and lavender aroma calm your mind. Avoid staying longer than 30 minutes to prevent skin dehydration. Set a timer so you don't lose track of time while unwinding.
- Rinse and moisturize after: After your soak, rinse off with fresh warm water to remove any salt residue. Pat your skin dry and apply a light moisturizer to lock in hydration. Skip soap or body wash during the rinse to preserve the lavender scent on your skin.
