Lavender and Sage Bath Salts

Making bath salts is easy.  Anyone can do this.  Above is a picture of Lavender & Sage Bath Salts I made for a sick friend.  Whether you are sick or not, soaking in a hot tub with a relaxing aromatic blend rising from the steam of the water will relieve stress and soothe the mind.


     Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup of sea salt
  • 2 tsp baking soda (softens the water and skin)
  • 2 tsp regular salt (holds the oils and color better)
  • a few drops of lavender oil
  • a few drops of sage oil
  • a few drops of soap grade coloring
  1. In a bowl, mix the regular salt, baking soda, oils, and coloring.  
  2. Add sea salt and mix.  
  3. *You may need to add a few drops more of the oils and coloring to incorporate with the sea salt.
  4. Put in a container to store.
  5. That's it!  Pretty easy huh?  =)
Note: Try it with other oils or coloring.  Opt for citrus scents or peppermint to awaken your senses.  Have fun with it!
