CBD Bath Soak 500mg

Description

Magnesium flake salts carrying 500mg of cannabidiol across the jar, which works out at about ten soaks. Potency per scoop is printed on the label rather than left as a jar total, because those are two different numbers and only one of them tells you anything about a bath. A CBD bath soak is also a dry blend, so uniformity matters more than it would in a pressed unit.

What is in a jar of cbd bath soak

A salt, an extract and nothing else. Net weight in grams sits next to the milligram figure, and the per scoop potency is on the label.

• CBD bath soak: 500mg of cannabidiol across the jar
• Servings: about ten soaks, with the per scoop figure on the label
• Salt: magnesium chloride flake rather than Epsom alone
• Colourant, mica and glitter: none
• Testing: every batch, with the certificate published openly
• Price: $32 a jar, with the price per milligram printed under it

Magnesium flake, and why it is not Epsom

They are different compounds. Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate, the cheap bulk of most soaks in this aisle. Magnesium chloride flake costs more, dissolves faster and feels slippery rather than gritty in water. A CBD bath soak built on flake rather than on Epsom is a deliberate choice with a cost attached, and it is named on the label with no claim made about it. Published work on magnesium crossing skin is thin and inconsistent, which is a statement about the literature rather than a verdict, and reference figures on magnesium come from the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements rather than from anyone selling salt.

What 50 mg in a full tub amounts to

Not much, and the honest version belongs on the page. Ten soaks out of 500mg is roughly 50 mg a bath. The same 50 mg in a two ounce balm is concentrated and goes on one spot; dispersed through forty gallons of water it is spread extremely thin, and most of the cannabinoid floats rather than dissolving, because cannabidiol is not water soluble. The price per milligram is printed anyway. The bath and body range lists net weight in grams alongside milligrams for exactly this reason.

Measuring a scoop of cbd bath soak

A level scoop is the stated serving and a heaped one is not the same measure, which matters more with a loose salt than with a bath bomb, since a bomb is one bath by definition and a soak is whatever you pour. Adding a CBD bath soak under running water rather than to a still tub gets the flake dissolved properly. The jar will cake if the lid is left off in a steamy bathroom, and a caked jar no longer scoops to the printed figure.

Testing a dry blend

Every batch of this CBD bath soak is assayed by a laboratory with no ownership tie to us: cannabinoid content, heavy metals and microbial screening on one sheet. Uniformity is the figure worth reading on a dry blend, because a jar can average 500mg and still be uneven scoop to scoop, so the certificate states the assay per serving rather than a jar average. Under potency batches are withdrawn and the failing report stays published next to the passing ones, which is explained in why we publish the batch that failed.

What the published literature covers

Leave on formulations, and not many. Human studies of cannabidiol applied to skin are few and small, generally describing a gel or cream at a stated milligram per gram concentration on a defined area, with most mechanistic work in cell culture or rodent models. Nothing in that literature examines immersion in heavily diluted water, and no figure from a leave on gel transfers to a bath. That is a description of where the evidence stops rather than a claim in either direction.

External use, and not food. Rinse the tub afterwards. The certificate for the jar currently shipping is linked here and filed by lot number.
