Sea Scents Bath Salts

For thousands of years, people have traveled to places far away to bathe
in natural mineral pools. Bath salts are a simple way to experience some
of the same benefits in the comfort of your own bath. And when combined
with the aroma of natural essential oils, the experience can
be truly amazing!
Ingredients:
-
Salt. There are many different
types of salts that can be used for bath salts. Some common salts used in
bath salts include Epsom salts, sea salts, or regular table salts.
Also available are some naturally colored salts that can be quite stunning
when used for bath salts. How course or fine the salt is depends on your
personal preference, just keep in mind that courser salt will take longer
to dissolve than fine salt. Some good places to check for different types
of salts would be the grocery store, health food stores, pharmacies, craft
stores, and the internet. You may want to check the ingredient list
on any salt you get to see what (if any) ingredients have been added in
case of allergies or other health concerns.
-
-
Food Coloring (if desired). Food
coloring is an easy and inexpensive way to color bath salts. Just be sure
that if you use them that any recipients know what colors were used in
case they are allergic to a certain colorant (not a problem if you use
food based colorants). Also don't try to make your salts very dark colors,
or you may end up staining your tub. Some people also use mica powders
(mineral eye shadows) to color their bath salts, but these can be harder
to find.
Instructions:
- Pour 1 cup of your desired salt (or a combination of several salts) into a
bowl (use either a stainless steel or a disposable bowl—plastic and glass
bowls can sometimes get permanently scented by essential oils)
- Add 5-10 drops of your favorite
essential oil or
blend
to the salt and stir together until no clumps of salt remain and the oil is
distributed throughout the salt. Some oils that might work well either
individually or as part of a blend are listed below.

If desired, add one or two drops of coloring to the salt and mix thoroughly
until color is evenly dispersed throughout the salt.
If you live in a humid area, you may want to spread your bath salt mixture
on a baking sheet or a sheet of foil or parchment and let it dry for 4-8
hours (stirring occasionally). This can help prevent your mixture from
clumping together.
Using a funnel, carefully pour your bath salt mixture into small decorative
jars.
Create a label or gift-tag that says what kind of bath salt it is, what the
ingredients are, and how to use it (typically 1/4 - 1/3 cup of bath salts
dissolved in warm bath water is a good amount). For example, your label or
gift-tag might read:
Sea Scents Bath Salt: Contains
natural sea salt, and pure essential oils of
jasmine and cedarwood. Add
one-fourth to one-third cup to warm bath water, wait until dissolved, and
enjoy!
Extra Ideas
-
This recipe can be easily adjusted for different amounts, just keep the
proportions the same.
-
If you are using a courser salt that may take longer do dissolve, you may
want to make a small bag with a drawstring out of a fine mesh material to
place the salt in. This bag can then be filled with the correct amount of
bath salts and hung on the spout of the tub with the drawstring so that the
bag is underneath the water that is coming from the spout. This will help
speed the dissolving process, and will also keep the un-dissolved salt out
of the tub.
-
Try layering different colored salts in clear glass jars to create some neat
effects.
