Bath salts

Bath salts are water-soluble, pulverized minerals that are added to water to be used for bathing. It is said that these salts improve cleaning, enhance the enjoyment of bathing, and serve as a vehicle for cosmetic agents. Bath salts have been developed that mimic the properties of natural mineral baths or hot springs.

Some bath salts contain glycerine so the product will act as an emollient, humectant, or lubricant.
Fragrances and colors are often added to bath salts; the fragrances are used to increase the users' enjoyment of the bathing experience.
