"Their skills and knowledge are consistently undervalued," founder Olowo-n'djo Tchala tells PopSugar. "I created Alaffia as a way to change this, to give real value and awareness to the knowledge and resources of these women."

On top of all that, the product was also an Allure Best of Beauty Winner in 2020. Oh, and it's only $15 at Target.

This is definitely a bath product to have on hand at all times. 

The ultimate epsom salts for just $5

If you're looking for epsom salts, this is the top brand on the market. According to Amazon, Dr Teal's Pure Epsom Salt Soaking Solution has a 4.8 out of five rating with over 5,000 reviews. Just sprinkle two cups of salt into your bath and soak for 20 minutes to revive sore muscles, alleviate stress, and promote sleep (via USA Today). Ready for the best part? You can do all that for just $5.

Not only will the scent make your bath time feel super luxurious, but it'll help provide magnesium to your body (via Healthline). The publication says that people don't often get enough magnesium in their bodies and suggests that epsom salt is a great way to do that. This is also a great product to have on hand as the winter months hit. In fact, the product is rated one of the top items to have during cold and flu season, according to USA Today, as it helps revitalize and sooth the body.

That's a whole lot of benefits and a small price to pay — literally.

A 3-in-1 product that doesn't break the bank

There truly is nothing better than a product that has more than one use, and this one has three. Shea Moisture's Olive and Green Tea Bath, Body, and Massage Oil is the product that just keeps giving. According to Influenster, people use this in their baths for added moisture, as a thicker body lotion overnight, and as massage oil. All of those uses will cost you a cool $9. 

All the glowing reviews of this product are no surprise when you consider the benefits. According to Medium, bath oils help blood circulation, alleviate fatigue, and help stiff joints. Basically, this product is great for all ages and skin types, plus it can be used as many times a week as you'd like. It truly doesn't get any better than this, especially when you consider the price. 

If this scent is a bit too earthy for you, you can also opt for the lavender and wild orchid or coconut and hibiscus blends. Or, you know, all three since they're so affordable.

The bath pillow of all bath pillows

When it comes to a recipe for a successful bath time, it's equal parts products and accessories. Nothing screams "pamper me" quite like a bath pillow. This ​​inflatable bath pillow from Amazon not only has crazy great reviews, but it's also only $8. One side is terry cloth as well, so you'll be at the peak comfort level your entire bath time. 

According to Self, this is a top-rated bath pillow for the way it cradles your head and the non-slip grip of the suction cups on the back. After all, nothing is worse than a slipping pillow while you're trying to relax. Both the fabric and the grip make for an ideal experience. Just add in your bubbles, soak in your salts, and light a candle or two. This pillow will have you feeling like you're at a high-end spa day for only a fraction of the price.

Bath bombs that won't mess up your pH

This list wouldn't quite be complete without a bath bomb on the list. Dr Teal's brand has amazing ratings on almost every product, but specifically for their bag of little bath balls. Byrdie even put it on their list of the top bath bombs overall, and it sits on the list with some pretty pricey contenders. 

What's so special about this one is that it's dye-free. According to Allure, some bath bombs can mess with your pH because of all the added fragrances and dyes. Dr Teal's keeps it simple and it pays off. Heck, you even get a whopping five bath bombs for $5. That's $1 per bath, which is actually incredible. Not to mention it's easier to make every bath time special — not just once in a while. Run, don't walk to Target to find these goodies.

Whether you're looking to stock up on your favorite item on this list or all five, you really can't go wrong. Gift them or keep them stocked in your bathroom closet for yourself, because the more the merrier with these incredible finds.
