Minera Coarse Grain Dead Sea Salt for Bath & Soaking – 5 lbs, Fast-Dissolving, 100% Pure & Natural, Unscented, Skin-Nourishing Sea Salt

Minera Dead Sea salts are a great product, especially if you have psoriasis on the bottoms of both feet, like I do. Soaking in the salts helps to relieve itching and redness. They do not really help alleviate any pain or burning per se but they are soothing to my feet and helps with exfoliating the dry skin. Recommend especially for those with psoriasis.

This is exactly what I wanted after spending some time hanging out in a salt grotto. What can I say about a five pound bag of salt? It was't as big as I thought, and I use about a cup at a time. The quality is good--I like the coarse stuff but it dissolves quickly in hot water. I add a drop or two of essential oil to the bath, but I prefer to add it myself rather than get scented salt. (Although it's fine without!) I didn't think this had a bunch of other stuff mixed into the salt like I saw in a couple reviews. It was pretty clean. I will reorder when I run out.

I ordered this salt to make bath salts for my husband for Christmas and it is great! I got the 5 lb bag of coarse salt. I happened to get lucky and caught it on a sale, but I think it’s a good value for how much you get. I use a mixture of sea salt, dead sea salt, and epsom salt for my bath salts - mixed in equal proportions - and my husband loves it. And I was able to make a ton of it for him. I divided it up into about half a dozen small mason jars with different scents, and still had a gallon ziploc bag filled with unscented salt left over. And I didn’t even use the whole bag of dead sea salt. I picked the coarse grain salt since my other two salts were medium and fine grain, so this salt added a little extra texture to my mix, which I like. The salt dissolves well in the bath and I really haven’t had any problems with it. My husband really enjoys the bath salts I make for him, so as long as he likes the finished product I’m happy with the ingredients. What I really like about this bag of salt is that it’s resealable, and the zipper seal actually works well. So many bags say they are resealable, but the zipper breaks immediately. The bag is a nice heavyweight plastic as well, so I don’t feel like I’m going to rip it apart if I’m not careful. Overall, I’m very happy with this salt, and I plan on purchasing again next time I make bath salts.

I'm going through some stress right now which causes my eczema to flare up. I'm normally able to keep my eczema in check with my skincare routine, but if I slip for a couple of days it'll creep up on me and it's back to topical steroids(which I'm trying so hard to avoid). I've used San Francisco Salt Company products in the past, so when I came across this on my search for something to relieve my eczema flare up before going back to topical steroids I figured I'd give it a shot. I've been soaking in this for 10-15 minutes at a time once or twice per day for the last 4 days, and it's really helped soothe my skin. I'm not constantly itchy. I had a particularly bad patch on my Achilles tendon and this has improved it so much. I'll soak in the tub and then apply a moisturizing cream and bandage over the really bad spots, and I've seen probably a 60% improvement in just a matter of days. Before this I was suffering for over a week with bloody, oozing eczema patches and extremely intense itching. If you have eczema you know that awful, bone-deep itch I'm talking about. No amount of scratching alleviates the itch, it's the worst. And of course, scratching just makes your skin worse. Thankfully, it's almost like this helps dry it up while soothing the itch. Overall, I'm very happy with this and will continue to purchase it. Only wish I could put it on subscribe and save so I could be sure that I'd never be without it.

This product is amazing. My daughter uses it for baths,her skin looks nice

I like taking a salt bath when I get the chance and this was my first time with Dead Sea salt. The smell of the dry salt is repulsive to me but it’s fine when it’s in the water. I didn’t really feel much different after taking my bath with it and I used quite a bit because it was my first bath after having a baby so I really wanted to soak and get some soothing benefits from it. It’s nice, a little on the pricey side especially since it’s not manufactured, it’s just part of the earth, but if it helps dry skin and more than its worth giving it a shot. My baths are far and few between right now but maybe if used frequently you would notice a difference.

Stronger than Epsom salt in regards to paid relief, a little goes a long way. Extremely relaxing, I would not suggest using a cup of these salts the first time unless you are in extreme pain and can go directly to bed after your soak. I used a cup of these salts in my first soak with them ... I was so limp, relaxed, that I almost couldn't get out of the tub. I made it to my bed and collapsed for the night. I came to the next morning when my alarm was blaring.

I have been struggling with topical steroid withdrawal or TSW (itsan.org) for the past 10 months. I have had eczema my whole life (27 years). At its worst, about 2-3 months ago, TSW gave me oozy, raw, shredded skin. I had very dry flaky scalp. My skin burned and itched all the time. I couldn't sleep, I lost weight, I was in pain. However, Dead Sea Salt baths from Minera were so soothing. It helped SO much. I don't know what I would have done without those baths. I've tried many different baths - oatmeal baths, Avene XeraCalm baths, Epsom salt baths. All work fine, but at my worst, Minera Dead Sea Salt really helped me out. I would pour 2 full cups of salt into a warm bath and soak for 10-12 minutes. If you have skin issues, I recommend Dead Sea Salt baths (with a shower filter - quality of the water is so important too). Honestly, it was life changing for me. I love that the Minera bag is so big. My skin is doing much better now, but I still take Dead Sea Salt baths.

Absolutely love my dead sea salt baths! It is great after an hard day of work or an early morning Soak to get active and moving. Overall, very happy with my purchase. I would recommend this product.

Magic Salt for Eczema! Lifelong eczema sufferer here. I'm amazed at how this has eased a full body flare, possibly due to topical steroid addiction, in 3 days. It has reduced the itch by 80%. I can sleep at night, my skin is softer and less dry. Patches are still red but not as raised and rough. Epsom salt is ok but has nothing on this Dead Sea stuff. I use 1 cup for a half full tub to try and make it last. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this is the remedy because I have tried EVERYTHING. To be fair, I have also started uv therapy but only 5 sessions so I don't think improvement is from that since it usually takes longer to see results. I just hope other people can ease their suffering by reading this and trying it.

It definitely soothes itching skin, but I didn't find it really reduced my psoriasis symptoms too much in the long run. I'm still happy with the product. It was relaxing, good quality, and I had soft skin and relief for a short time afterwards.

My family has no issues with this Minera Coarse Grain Dead Sea Salt. It melts completely and cleanly in the bath.

Dead Sea salts are more than sodium. Dead Sea salts consist of a complex mineral composition including large amounts of magnesium, sodium, calcium, potassium, bromine, chlorine, and smaller amounts of sulfate and bicarbonate. There are enormous benefits from bathing in Dead Sea salts. Bathers find relief from fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis, for example, and many other ailments, including psoriasis.
