To use Kneipp Dream Away Mineral Bath Salt, simply add an appropriate amount to warm bathwater. Stir well to dissolve the salt and release the soothing scents of valerian and hops. Soak in the bath for 15 - 20 minutes to fully enjoy the calming and skin - cleansing benefits. You can also make steamy body compresses as described in the product tip. Just soak a cloth in a solution of the bath salt and use it during treatments. As for precautions, keep this product out of reach of children. If you have sensitive skin, it's a good idea to do a patch test first. Store the bath salt in a cool, dry place to maintain its quality and effectiveness.
