Actress, cookbook author and Goop founder Gwyneth Paltrow has made headlines for her proclivity towards pricey — even painful — beauty treatments. Remember apitherapy and vagina steaming?

In addition to stocking her bathroom with her own Goop by Juice Beauty skincare line, it turns out the healthy lifestyle guru also counts a budget-friendly buy as part of her daily wellness ritual. The 44-year-old star is a fan of Dr Teal’s Pure Epsom Salt Soaking Solution.

“I take a bath every night in regular Epsom salts from the drugstore. Dr Teal's, which is great for skin and purity of skin and relaxation to get all the energy of the day off,” Paltrow told Elle.

The therapeutic benefits of epsom salts are well documented. Beyond promoting detoxification — as the natural beauty so aptly pointed out — a warm epsom salt soak is also shown to relieve sore muscles, soothe inflammation and ease stress.

Below are a few more Dr. Teals picks, plus a few more effervescent formulas — each ringing in at $10 or less.

This version of Dr. Teals is infused with lavender, making it the perfect before-bedtime treat.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, this version has traces of ginger and clay which is said to energize and detoxify.

This unscented, no-frills version is an Amazon Choice products with over 300 rave reviews. It dissolves quickly and gets to work on any aches and pains.

From the brand above, this formula is infused with tea tree oil and 6 other essential vitamins for tired and aching feet.

Lastly, this version from Tree Hut will leave your skin feeling nourished and moisturized.
