Can I Absorb CBD in a Bath?

We're happy to share that the answer to the question 'Can I absorb CBD in a bath?' is a resounding YES! In fact, a bath is one of the best ways to absorb CBD because it opens the pores and gives the CBD, botanicals, terpenes, and essential oils time to soak deep into the layers of the skin to bring soothing pain relief and recovery.


For those who are new to CBD, the Mendi Full Spectrum Bath Salts can be a great way to test out the full-body benefits without ingesting CBD, and while doing something you already find relaxing.

Here are a few tips for getting the most out of your bathing experience:
  • Warm is best! The warmer the water the more it’s going to open up your pores and the easier it will be for the CBD, botanicals, terpenes, and essential oils to get into the deep tissue their designed to help. Heat also improves CBD’s anti-inflammatory properties, which is the root of all skin problems, whether it’s eczema or pain.
  • Give it time. We advise you to soak for around 30 min for the CBD, botanicals, terpenes, and essential oils to have time to do their work. Everything in the Mendi Full Spectrum Bath Salts is all-natural, plant-based, and non-addictive so you can relax with peace of mind.
  • Soak your whole bod. CBD is incredibly effective when absorbed through the skin. Submerge as much of your body in the bath as possible to allow the greatest amount of surface area to soak up the CBD, botanicals, terpenes, and essential oils for an all-over sense of relaxation and recovery.
  • Add some Epsom salt or your favorite essential oils into the bath to enhance your experience. Adding 2oz of the Mendi Full Spectrum Bath Salts (37.5mg of CBD) to any bath is all you need to feel the full spectrum of benefits, but adding some extra salt or your favorite oils will help make the experience even more enjoyable.
  • Take your bath before bed. Had a long day at work, with the kids, or just tackled a tough workout? A CBD Bath can be amazingly restorative at the end of the day. As the CBD absorbs it can also help elevate your feeling of calm, and bring your body into a state of relaxation or homeostasis that aids in a better night of sleep.
  • Take deep breaths. Not only will deep breathing help you relax your muscles and open your body up to the full benefits of the bath, but these Full Spectrum Bath Salts have been enriched with essential oils that act as aromatherapy to deliver deep and restorative, whole-body relief. Choose between Lavender, Lemon Balm Rose, and Sandalwood Tonka Bean scents.
  • Pair it with another product. Bath Salts can deliver a variety of benefits including pain relief, calming the body and mind, better sleep, and more. If you’re looking to double down on one of these benefits in particular consider adding another product to your routines such as a Full Spectrum Sleep Tincture or Full Spectrum Salve Stick for rub-on pain relief.
