Questions We Get Asked
Chemist Epsom is industrial-grade, unformulated, no essential oils, no botanicals. CHALICE Obsidian has 11 specifically chosen ingredients: Himalayan Pink Rock Salt, pharma-grade Epsom, roasted coffee, activated charcoal, myrrh resin, three essential oils (zero synthetic fragrance) and whole botanicals. Same base mineral, completely different ritual.
Yes, use it. The muslin bag is what keeps the botanicals (neem leaves, black sesame seeds) contained in the water while the salts and essential oils pass freely through the weave. Without it, they end up between your toes and in the drain. With it: zero cleanup. Rinse it under cold water after use, air dry, and it lasts 50 rituals.
No. This was designed for a foot tub or a wide bucket. A bathtub soak works too: use the full 150g jar. Most of our testing happened in foot tubs because that’s what most Indian homes have.
Consult your gynaecologist first. Obsidian contains vetiver, coffee and eucalyptus essential oils, and some practitioners advise caution with essential oils during pregnancy.
Children 12 and over can do a mild foot soak (half quantity, ~1 tablespoon) under adult supervision. Not recommended for children under 12. Discontinue if any irritation occurs.
If the scent isn’t coming from an ingredient that’s doing something, it’s just masking what’s missing. What you smell is what’s working.

Chemist Epsom is industrial-grade, unformulated, no essential oils, no botanicals. Every CHALICE soak starts with pharma-grade Epsom and adds its own blend of essential oils, carried in coconut oil, with zero synthetic fragrance. Five of the six variants also add Himalayan Pink Rock Salt and whole botanicals; the exact ingredients for this soak are listed on this page and on the jar. Same base mineral, completely different ritual.
Variants made with whole botanicals (Amethyst, Amber, Sapphire, Veil, Obsidian) come with a muslin bag. Use it: it keeps the botanicals contained in the water while the salts and essential oils pass freely through the weave. Without it, botanicals end up between your toes and in the drain. Rinse it under cold water after use, air dry, and it lasts 50 rituals. Frost has no botanicals, so it comes without a bag and dissolves completely.
Consult your gynaecologist first. Every CHALICE soak contains essential oils, and some practitioners advise caution with essential oils during pregnancy. The essential oils in this soak are listed on this page and on the jar.
