"Honestly, I didn't expect much from a bath salt. A few weeks in and my skin does feel different though. Softer, and smoother too."
At a glance
What's in the pouch Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt), Sodium Bicarbonate, Tapioca Starch, Camellia sinensis (Green Tea) Leaf Extract, Citrus junos (Yuzu) Peel Oil. That's the whole list.
Who it's for
For the woman who does everything, and has nothing in the day that's hers.
You don't need a twelve-step routine, and you don't need another promise about turning back time. You need twenty minutes behind a locked door, warm water, and something that smells like it was made with care. That's the whole idea. Japan has been running that bath for 1,300 years.
What's Inside
柚子 · Yuzu
The problem: skin that looks tired and flat, and an evening that never quite switches off. Japan has run yuzu baths since the Edo period: whole fruit floating in the water on the winter solstice, the ritual called yuzu-yu. Real yuzu peel oil, not a fragrance accord pretending to be one.
緑茶 · Ryokucha
The problem: dryness and that rough, sandpaper texture that body lotion never quite fixes. Green tea leaf is naturally rich in antioxidant polyphenols, and our extract is concentrated to 60% of them. Paired with pure Epsom salts and a little bicarb to soften the water itself.
The other three
The base
Magnesium sulfate, and most of what's in the pouch. The mineral salt behind every classic Epsom soak, and it dissolves clear in warm water.
Softens the water
Sodium bicarbonate tips the water slightly alkaline, which is where that soft, smooth feel comes from. A mild take on the onsen springs Japan calls bijin-no-yu.
The silky feel
A fine starch from cassava root that gives the water a silkier feel. It also takes up stray moisture, which helps the salts stay loose in the pouch.
Early Reviews
"The yuzu is lovely, and it doesn't take over the whole bathroom, which I'd worried about. It's turned into a Sunday night thing for me. My skin feels better for it too."
"Honestly, I didn't expect much from a bath salt. A few weeks in and my skin does feel different though. Softer, and smoother too. I'm already halfway through the bag."
"The pouch is nice enough that I've left it out on the shelf rather than in the cupboard. The salts are the better part though. It's become how I wind down at the end of a long day."
Our early testers were given a free pouch to try before launch.
Our Story
At Miyomi, our aim is simple: to make genuine self-care a daily reality for women, not an occasional indulgence. We believe that the way you care for your body shapes the way you move through the world, and that even the most ordinary moments, like a bath at the end of a long day, deserve to be treated with intention.
We set out to build a brand rooted in the Japanese philosophy of restoration behind onsen bathing. One that brings real, natural ingredients together with a ritual worth returning to. Skincare that works quietly, consistently, and beautifully, without unnecessary complexity or compromise.
Every pouch is made here in Australia, blended and packed by hand in small batches. Five ingredients. Simple, pure, and crafted with intention.
The Ritual
Fill your bath with warm water at 38 to 40°C, warm enough to relax the body without overstressing the skin.
Pour in a generous half cup, about two scoops, under the running water, and let it dissolve completely.
Soak for twenty minutes. Lock the door, leave the phone in the other room. This part is yours.

Plain bath salt rinses away. What actually leaves rings and tints, and how to keep acrylic and enamel baths clean.
