Easy DIY Bath Salt Recipe

No one loves a good bath more than I do.  It is one of my very favorite ways to care for myself.  It is my escape.  I slip into the tub and feel the tension leaving my body.  Calgon, take me away! (ok, does anyone else remember that?)
We re-did our bathroom a couple years back and you should have seen me trying out all the tubs in the showroom. My husband was getting impatient, but I’m sorry, this is my happy place and a girl has to try it out before she’s gonna live with this thing for 20 years, right?!
Not only can a bath be good for your soul, it is also great for your body.  I’ve been experimenting with some bath salts recently that have some great benefits for us.

DIY Lavender Cedarwood Orange Bath Salts

Author Rebecca LeVander

Ingredients

  • 2 Cups Epsom salt
  • 1/2 Cup dead sea salt
  • 1/2 Cup Baking soda
  • 15 drops lavender essential oil
  • 10 drops cedarwood essential oil
  • 5 drops orange essential oil

Instructions

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl. Add the essential oils and mix well. Store in a glass jar and use 1/4 Cup to 1/2 Cup per bath.

Recipe Notes

If the mixture starts clumping, re-use those little packets of silica salt that come in new shoes and vitamins, etc... Just leave a couple in the jar to soak up extra moisture and avoid clumping.

Benefits of Epsom salt:

  • Reduces stress
  • Boosts magnesium levels which can help sleep
  • Reduces muscle aches
  • Eliminates toxins
  • Reduces inflammation
  • Relieves itchy skin or sunburn
  • Relieves constipation

Benefits of Baking Soda in your bath:

I hope you take some time for yourself and soak in the tub.  This also makes a great gift.
With so much love + gratitude,
