Also Known as Himalayan Rock Salt, this salt is hand-mined and harvested from ancient salt beds, deep under the Himalayan Mountains. Known to be rich in over 80 minerals and trace elements, some of the most notable being calcium, magnesium, potassium, copper, and iron, this salt is considered to be the purest form of salt available. Naturally pinkish to dark pink or reddish in color, Himalayan salt gets its signature hue from its mineral content, becoming darker as the mineral composition gets denser.
The Himalayan Salt is popularly known for its use in baths to promote relaxation of the body, and for its refreshing and energizing effects.

Rating: J'adore ce sel, il est grossier moyen, pour faire mes sels de bain j'en mets dans mes mélanges et il est parfait. Déjà d'une belle couleur avec différente teinte de rose.

Rating: Beautiful colour and product. BUT Our last order was a 25kg bag. With the smaller package we never had issue; however the amount of debris (plastic, wood) that needs to be picked out is too high.
Rating: Our last purchase of pink salts was a 25kg bag. We have had to spend a ton of time picking plastic, cardboard and various other debris out of the salt before it can be used. We are approximated 2/3 through the bag and the debris has been throughout the whole bag. Love the colour, but hate the wasted time sorting .
Rating: this salt is amazing! the colour is gorgeous and the price is unbeatable. i am 100% satisfied and will order this again and again :)

Rating: Love the salt, colour and effect. Excellent price, great customer service and fast delivery. Sprinkled on top of my pink grapefruit cold process soap. Would love to see it available in a fine grind as well (I have to buy that elsewhere) because you can not cut the soap bars with the coarse salt inside, it gets caught on the blade and drags.
Rating: I received this product as part of a holiday gift from a coworker... and I absolutely loved it!! It melts nicely in the bath, she sprinkled it with grapefruit extract and placed it in a nice container and it looked very luxurious... I went back asking for more :)
Rating: I love this salt! It is quite pretty and I love how it looks in a jar for bath salts. Add some Moroccan Clay and you have yourself a wonderful soak! The item is very reasonably priced. Will buy again!

Rating: Great product! I love the color; it is subtle, yet you don't have to add any coloring to it. It is lovely by itself but you can add pretty much any scent to make it your own.
By:Amelie, Montreal, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 14-Feb-2009
Rating: Gorgeous salt. I use it for hot bath, unfortunately, the tub looks dirty with pink colour everywhere. It is a hassle to clean the tub after each use. I like dead sea salt better.
By:Chau, Coquitlam, British Columbia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 12-Dec-2012
Rating: This salt is great, the only thing i didn't like was that it smelled just like the NDA wear house. I have received many things that smell like that.
By:Mariam, Hampton, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 14-May-2012
Rating: They made awesome gifts! Soaked up EO well, and made colorful great looking bath salts.
By:Pauline, Calgary, Alberta Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 25-Apr-2011
Rating: I was a bit disapointed at first because the plastic container I received had a strange odor, but the salts were odorless, luckily. Color is quite interesting.
By:Chau, Coquitlam, British Columbia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 12-Dec-2012
Rating: The Pink Himalayan Salt is gorgeous. Ranging in light rose quartz colour pink to deep reds. Absolutely stunning! Love it. Very glad I bought the 25 kg bag!

Rating: Love this Salt, my customers are very happy with this products, I would like to see you sell FOOD GRADE as I have to order from USA for my food grade salt
By:Lynne, Thorsby, Alberta Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 10-Nov-2005
Rating: I used this salt for muscles relief after an injury. What can I say? Himalayan salt is just amazing! Maybe a little too many sharp edges for a scrub though. Don't rub just soak and you will feel the benefits. And did I mention it has a beautiful colour?
By:Manon, Rawdon, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 07-Jun-2011
Rating: This salt has a beautiful colour but also a wonderful relaxing bath experience. Also, bottled this and gave as gift to friends and family.
Purchased the 4kg. jar, and it filled 6- 500ml jars nicely, and some left for me!

Rating: Beautiful salt. I'm using it to add natural colour to salts and bombs instead of rose petals for a product that dissolves completely, with less mess afterwards.
Rating: Was a hit for gifts. Useless for me as I only take showers. I will be ordering more as I was out the first day I had it.
By:Nathan, Brantford, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 08-Apr-2011
Rating: Beautiful salt, and mixes amazingly well with EOs. Threw some lavender and clary sage EOs in a large bowl with the salt and mixed it around with my hands for a deeply relaxing bath soak!
Rating: Himalayan salt not only has many health benefits but this is also an excellent product! I have ordered it several times and will continue to order. Very popular with friends, family and clients!
By:Kallie, Calgary, Alberta Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 28-Apr-2010
Rating: Looks beautiful and takes EO's and oils very well. My new favourite salt.
By:Cherie, Toronto, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 07-Nov-2008
Rating: I loved the price but enjoyed the bath salt more. This is a very refreshing bath salt. I mixed a few of my favorite EO's in with it and loved the way it made my skin feel. I will definitely be using these salts in my product line.

Rating: Oh what a marvelous scrub I will make with this salt. The price is a wonder too. Very interesting product to work with. Thank you for this new product.
Le sel de l'Himalaya est un produit tellement cher sur le marché que c'est déjà une aubaine de pouvoir s'en produrer au prix New Directions. Je me sens très inspirée pour faire un bon scrub !
Thank you to New Directions. Once again, we can work with original quality products.
