What makes the water feel 'softer' during a salt bath, and are there any tips for the best experience?

The 'softer' feel comes from the dissolution of the marine salt crystals. As they dissolve, they release minerals into the water, which can reduce the sensation of hard water and make it feel silkier against the skin. For the best experience, use warm water, not hot, as very hot water can be drying. A bath temperature comfortable to the touch is ideal. Soak for 15-20 minutes to allow the warmth and minerals to help the body relax. It's best used in the evening or after physical activity when the goal is to unwind. After your bath, rinsing briefly with plain water is optional but can help some people avoid a slight residual salty feeling. Pat your skin dry and follow with a moisturizer if your skin tends to be dry, as warm water can have a mild drying effect. Remember to store the bag in a cool, dry place to prevent the salt from clumping.
