Excellent quality and value. Ideal for a relaxing bath

Epsom salts have to be the most reliable useful product ever… Last time from this seller I bought the biggest tub in which two of us had to life and lasted a good 6-8 months. The big tub all finished now, so since buying the first big tub, the price has gone up another £10 which in several months is one huge increase. This time around I bought the 5kg tub, tub are a good way of storing and safe when kids and animals about. I use Epsom salts every day, I use in my bath, face scrub once a week, every wash in my washing machine, keeps elements clean, and better than Calgon. Plus gets rid of grease on clothes, pen marks, blood etc. Great for keeping the home clean and sterilised, however as it is all natural, nothing hurts the home, no harmful chemicals unlike bleach. In the bath it is lovely as I have back ailments that are severe. Soaking and exfoliating my skin leave my skin super smooth. Adhere to the recommended dose, too much may cause itchy skin. I wash all pet blankets and covers. Lasts ages and one of those products I cannot do without, good for cleaning dirty mugs dyed by tea and coffee. For anyone new to Epsom salts, here are some good facts and uses.. 1. Acne Remedy Epsom salt has antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties making it a fantastic home remedy for acne. Make a mixture of Epsom salt and water, and allow it to seep into your skin. 2. Remove Hairspray You can use Epsom salt for removing hairspay. Mix one gallon of water, one cup of lemon juice, and one cup of Epsom salt. Then cover the mixture and let it set for 24 hours. The next day, pour the mixture onto your dry hair and let it sit for 20 minutes. Then shampoo as normal. 3. Pump up the Volume of Your Hair Add equal parts Epsom salt, to equal parts of your favorite conditioner, work the mixture into your hair, and leave it on for 20 minutes before rinsing. The treatment will get rid of excessive oils, which can leave hair looking flat and greasy. Repeating the treatment once a week is suggested. 4. Ease Discomfort of Gout Ease the discomfort of gout and reduce inflammation by adding 2-3 teaspoons of Epsom salts into a basin and immersing the affected foot/joint. The water should be as hot as it is comfortable. Soak for about 30 minutes. 5. De-flake Lips Cold weather and even just repeatedly licking your lips year-round can leave you with a parched, flakey pucker. For smoother, healthier-looking lips, mix a few tablespoons of Epsom salt with a teaspoon of petroleum jelly, gently massage the mixture onto your lips, and then wipe off. 6. Remove Excess Oil from Your Hair Epsom salt soaks up excess oil from your hair. Add 9 tablespoons of Epsom salt to 1/2 cup of oily hair shampoo. Apply one tablespoon of the liquid to your hair when dry; rinse with cold water. Pour lemon juice or organic apple cider vinegar through the hair, leave on for 5-10 minutes, then rinse. 7. Facial Scrub This is one of the favorite uses for Epsom salt. Mix 1/2 teaspoon of Epsom salt with your favorite cleanser; massage into skin using small circles to give your pores a deep-cleaning. Rinse your face with cool water, pat dry. This is one of the most refreshing Epsom salt uses. 8. Homemade Skin Mask Apply the mask to damp skin. For normal to oily skin, mix one tablespoon of cognac, one egg, 1/4 cup of non-fat dry milk, the juice of one lemon, and 1/2 teaspoon of Epsom salt. For normal to dry skin, mix 1/4 cup of grated carrot, 2 teaspoons of mayonnaise and 1/2 teaspoon of Epsom salt. 9. General Stress Relief Nothing draws out stress like bath salts. As the magnesium soaks into your body it reverses the effects of stress on your body, replenishing magnesium levels, decreasing adrenaline, and producing serotonin. 10.

Make a compress by soaking a washcloth in cold water that has been mixed with Epsom salt (2 tablespoons per cup of water), then gently apply to the bite area. This is yet another one of the favorite Epsom salt uses. 11. Quick Bruise Treatment Use a warm compress with Epsom salt to fade the appearance of bruises.

For an effective cold-water plunge, add Epsom salt. Its natural anti-inflammatory properties can help keep muscles healthy after you’ve been working hard at the gym. 24. Toenail Fungus Remedy This is also one of the amazing uses for Epsom salt. Soak your feet three times a day in warm water with a handful of Epsom salts dissolved into it. This will help you get rid of toenail fungus. 25. Detox You can detoxify your body by adding 2 cups of Epsom salts to a hot bath and soak for 10 minutes. The sulfates in Epsom salts help flush toxins and heavy metals from your body through reverse osmosis, which pulls the salt out of your body, along with all those nasty toxins. Also good for outdoor plants. An excellent product and so much cheaper than supermarkets. ⭐️Thank you to the seller ⭐️I hope my review helps you

Great value.

Everyone should have this in their bathroom cupboard. As a regular exerciser, this has worked wonders in my recovery baths. A couple of cupfuls and a long soak has meant my muscle recovery time is sooo much shorter. I actually also mix mine with magnesium salts too for extra ooomph. The bulk buy means I'm saving loads of money too!

Lovely big crystals, makes a fantastic footbath

Good product for indoor plants

Applying to a Plum Tree root and is a work in progress! I cover the whole root in a thick plastic BLACK bag (to prevent Photosynthesis) Secured the base with thick garden wire leaving the top for access, add the Magnesium Sulphate via the open end of the Black Bag and secured with a clipper! Waiting with excitement to see what occurs! I DID NOT add water as, in my opinion, this is not what is needed, The Epsom Salts DRY out the roots and kill them and adding water is just the reverse! I have a wee glance every week whilst adding a pudding spoon full every week! Waiting with excitement!

Exactly as expected
