Key Ingredients
why the press loves breathe in
Hi Vivian,
This review is quite important to me, your bath salts are the single best product I’ve found for managing my atopic eczema (mild to moderate)!! Baths are always good for it but (particular hard water areas) leave my skin drying out hard afterwards… but not with your bath salts, particularly the lemon thyme, something about the natural oils and salts not only leaves my skin feeling better after but also keeps the condition under control with just a few baths a week, and no need for daily moisturiser as standard any more! Everyone’s eczema / skin is different but verdant alchemy really makes a difference to mine, I can recommend trying it either way as if it makes no difference it’s a real lovely bath! FYI for anyone who is using it for eczema, I don’t use very much of the salts, I can get 4 plus baths out of one packet easy, too salty and it would probably be dehydrating and happily just a little makes a insane difference. Writing a lot but I’ve spent 35 years looking for a simple solution to my skin issues - thanks Verdant Alchemy!

Hi James,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such an amazing review! I'm actually quite blown away by how the bath salts have made such a difference for your eczema. It's incredibly rewarding to hear stories like yours.
Your point about using a smaller amount of the salts is great advice for others with eczema. It's all about finding what works best for your individual needs.
Thank you again for sharing your experience! We're sure it will resonate with others struggling with similar issues.
Warmly, Vivien
