Why Does Magnesium Matter?

Dead Sea salt is different from ordinary sea salt because of its mineral composition.

Normal sea salt is mostly sodium chloride.

Dead Sea salt contains significantly higher levels of other minerals — particularly magnesium (around 40%), along with potassium and calcium.

Magnesium matters because:

• It changes how the water feels on the skin
• It makes Dead Sea salt less harsh than ordinary salt
• It contributes to the distinctive texture of mineral bathing

Mineral Composition, Not Marketing

Dead Sea salt is valued because of what it is made of. Around 40% magnesium, plus other trace minerals naturally present in the salt. This mineral balance is what distinguishes it from standard sea salt — not colour, not perfume, not additives.

How to Use Bath Salts

Add a generous handful of bath salts to warm running water and allow them to dissolve fully before stepping in. Soak for at least 15–20 minutes to allow the mineral-rich water to surround your body. Use as part of an evening ritual to help ease muscle tension, soothe the skin and promote a calm, restorative finish to your day. For a targeted foot or hand soak, add a smaller amount to a basin of warm water and enjoy the same nurturing benefits on specific areas.

Follow with a nourishing Body Dry Oil, and fragranced Lotion, and layer with a balm on areas in need of some extra TLC.
