As an equestrian who has very tired muscles after horse shows I have tried various bath salts and crystals over the years. Burt's Bees Therapeutic Bath Crystals are by far the best I have used. I have been using them for 5 years and will continue to use them.
I've been looking for natural solutions for my horrible period cramps. These bath crystals do the trick! It's soothing and helped ease my cramp temporarily. I also noticed all the dirt and grime in the tub that came from my own body that I've never noticed I had before!! Ladies, if you need a natural solution for your painful periods or if others are wanting to detoxify their bodies once in a while, get this stuff! It won't disappoint.
These bath crystals are wonderful! They smell so relaxing and their oils soften the skin. I find them very therapeutic in my evening bath. It is also an excellent value with 2 tablespoons being all a large bath needs. The label says, "Please do not use more then the recommended amount." My bath is big and I love salts so, ignoring the warning, I added 3 tablespoons. The bath was too strong. Other salts call for 1/2 - 1 cup per bath. I'm hooked 100%. The rustic paint can packaging makes it a classy gits.
Pros: Soothing, Relaxing, Smells great, does what it says
I really didnt think there was anything to this product til my Fiance worked real hard out in the yard and I told him to use the crystals. He took a long hot bath and was not even sore the next day like he would normally be by not using the salts so my rating is 20 stars!
When I get a good work out in, I always end it with a hot bath full of BB's Therapeutic Bath Crystals. When I wake up the next morning my sore muscles are gone!
This is a very nice and helpful product if you're worn out and have sore muscles, but not so much if you're just looking for a leisurely calming bath. The highest notes of fragrance is a mixture of eucalyptus and menthol. For me, those smells evoke feelings of concentration and alertness so it wasn't as I expected when purchasing this product but it's still very nice.
Be careful to keep out a lot of foreign moisture from getting into the container, it may make the crystals stick to each other so it'll make it harder to scoop out.
I recieved this in a grab bag....frankly I was suprised that it actually worked! Every single bit of tension I had in my body was gone, and it was ALOT due to pretty tough muscle toning workouts & personal stress*. Afterwards I felt absolutely calm, relaxed and tension free. Not only that I noticed it helped my muscle definition. Again, awesome product and I will buy it again and make my husband use it too!
Perfect for stress relief after a long day filled with school, homework, sports, and a boatload of drama. It's nice to relax sometimes and this sure helps the process. I got it from the grab bag in a sample size and have been very happy with it.
Def worth the $. You can really feel the tingle with this product and it smells fantastic. I'll leave the lid cracked just to make the bathroom smell yummy.
Whenever I think of taking a bath, these crystals are always apart of the process! They smell great, they dissolve quickly, and add to the lovely experience of de-stressing. My only comment is that sometimes (and only sometimes), they can tingle a little more than is comfortable. I think this happens when I get the water TOO hot, so keep that in mind. Other than that, I would totally recommend them!
I got a burning itching feeling from this in the bath though I used the amount indicated by directions. I tried a week later and had same response with a rash. I think this product is too strong. I love their other things but something is off here. I found other similar reactions to it online elsewhere after I tried it.
When I started working out more I had some bad muscle cramps, and this definitely helped to soothe them. The smell is great and I would buy this again and again.
I am always sore because of stress and carrying heavy loads. My boyfriend had me soak using this and my muscle aches were gone. It made it easier for him to get the knots out of my muscles and left my skin soft. The smell is amazing and the results were immediate.
The therapeutic bath crystals are both calmimg and soothing. Burts Bees has a great smell. As an RN, I only like to purchase the best quality products and Burts Bees makes my list. I started using the lip balm and then discovered a whole new world of products. I always go for the crystals after a hard day!
