So, why not bring some ancient bathing magic into your 21st-century quarantine-pad? Here are some tips on how to create a mental and spiritual sanctuary in the midst of a pandemic.

It's Mother’s Day, one of our favorite holidays here at Laki! Inspired by her mother and their cherished family trips to Hawaii, our founder Tiffany Lerman brought the spirit of “aloha” to life with Laki Naturals. It is no accident that Laki bath soaks are infused with detoxifying Hawaiian sea salt. With Laki Naturals, bathing can be an essential part of every beauty regime, helping women to achieve a peaceful, empowered state of mind and be their best selves.

At Laki, we love a good bath – the steam, the silence, the solitude. It’s soothing and lets us take a break from life’s troubles. What you might not know is that the positive effects of a bath go far deeper than simply providing a relaxing experience. Taking regular baths provides real, long-term benefits to one’s physical and mental health. Here are the top reasons we love a good bath...

Usually, in moments of crisis, we rally and gather in support of each other, but this moment uniquely requires us to stay apart. We hope you’re finding ways to relax and stay present amidst the uncertainty. In the spirit of solitary self-care, we’ve compiled a varied list of meaningful ways to take care of yourself at home.

According to the CDC, 80% of germs are spread by our hands, but washing ours over and over again and constantly using sanitizer has left them dry and cracked. Go natural, and learn to make your very own lotion at home!
