Two new amla antioxidant-infused additions to your self-care ritual have just entered the chat. Meet Mindful Magnesium Bath Soak and Renew & Glow Body Polish. These two luxurious tension-tamers provide the perfect ways to glow up your post-workout or daily mindfulness rituals with soothing magnesium, delicious natural aromatherapy, and all the beautifying botanicals your skin can’t get enough of. So, without further ado, this is how we like to soak and scrub.
We all know how refreshing a good soak can be after a workout, long day, or crying session — but did you know adding magnesium can help get you back in the game more quickly? We’ve bottled this ultra-effective remedy used by pro athletes (and sore sad girls — because we’ve all been there) into a clean, super luxe formula with vitamin C and E-rich amla antioxidants and soothing arnica. Known to promote a healthy inflammatory response and even better known as a topical remedy for bruising, this formula is a fantastic tool for body (and mind) soreness. Moisturizing coconut and avocado oils reinforce the skin’s moisture barrier and all-natural coconut, mandarin, and blood orange aromatics have the power to ease mind-body stress.
To soak like a pro, add 1-2 full scoops (depending on tub size) to running water and soak 15 minutes to feel the stress-melting benefits. For better exfoliation and relaxation, we recommend soaking a bit longer, perhaps with All Too Well (T’s Version) playing for a minimum of 30 minutes and up to as long as one full episode of Love Island.
Peep the full list of ingredients and benefits below and you’ll be sold on this chill-inducing formula.
Amla: The world’s most concentrated source of antioxidants, this beauty-boosting superberry is packed with vitamin C.
Magnesium: Magnesium is absorbed most rapidly via the skin and has been shown to help promote relaxation.
Arnica: Arnica, a daisy-like flower, has been used for centuries to help promote relaxation and soothe the visible effects of stress on the body.
Avocado Oil: Avocado oil nourishes the skin with vitamin E and potassium.
Coconut Oil: Coconut oil quickly absorbs into the skin to hydrate and protect.
After soaking in stress-melting magnesium and arnica, buff Renew & Glow Body Polish onto wet skin with your hands paying extra attention to elbows, knees, feet, and heels. This natural, sugar-based exfoliating scrub with coconut, meadowfoam, and sesame oils cleanse and promote skin clarity along with glow-boosting amla antioxidant superberries. It also has a natural, uplifting citrus scent that pairs perfectly with other Glow System products. All of the nourishing oils give this scrub a viscosity that applies luxuriously to the skin and ensures its ability to slough off dead, dry skin (and dusty men) for a deep clean that leaves behind new, freshly moisturized skin that looks lit from within. Boy, bye.
The formula for Renew & Glow Body Polish is beyond beautifying with moisturizing antioxidants and nourishing botanicals.
Amla: The world’s most concentrated source of antioxidants, this beauty-boosting superberry is packed with vitamin C.
Meadowfoam Oil: This skin-saver, derived from small, white flowers that bloom along the West Coast, seals moisture in.
