First off, I gotta say this stuff smells AMAZING. Like a spa in a bag. The mix of essential oils is seriously relaxing—lavender and chamomile? Yes please.

I used it with my sitz bath (bought separately) and it dissolved super fast. No weird clumps, just smooth, silky water. My skin felt crazy soft afterward, like baby-butt level soft.

BUT—and this is a big but—the price tag hurts. It's definitely a splurge compared to plain Epsom salts. I stretched mine by mixing with unscented salts, which worked great.

Word of warning: the oils can stain! Ruined my favorite PJ pants when some splashed out. Seller was cool about it though—offered a refund when I complained (didn't take it, but nice gesture).

As for hemorrhoid relief? Hard to say if it works better than regular salts, but the pampering factor is 10/10. Would repurchase just for that post-bath glow.
