How
To Make Bath Salts
by Kent Pinkerton
Essential for a unique enriching experience,
bath salts are easy to make with the simplest of ingredients,
available in all stores. They can be used separately or in combinations
for therapeutic, medicinal or similar salutary reasons.
The ingredients for bath salts are simple
and easy to find. They include a mixture of baking soda, bath
salts such as Epsom or Dead Sea salts, essential oils, and coloring.
Glycerin can also be added if your skin requires additional
moisturizing. It is a by-product of soap making, and available
in stores. The process is not lengthy, and requires simple mixing
and airing and storing in fancy glass jars.
A shorter and entirely different process
requires distilled water, unscented shampoo, glycerin, and essential
oils. A good substitute for unscented shampoo is castile soap.
Castile soap is made from olive oil, and is used to soften and
moisturize the skin. It is easily found in all health food stores,
drug stores, and major department stores. The process involves
mixing and storing ingredients, after which water is poured
into the container. Adding a few attractive seashells can enhance
the beauty of the bath salts.
A longer process requires sunflower oil,
essential oils, a corked container, and a funnel. The process
involves pouring the sunflower oil into the container, adding
a few teaspoons of essential oil and leaving it for a few days,
shaking the bottle at regular intervals. A few attractive beads,
crystals, and dried flowers can make the container pleasing
to the eyes.
A variety of options are available
for those who wish to experiment. There are 21 different types
of essential oils, colors, and textures, each to suit your need.
Whether you're looking for an ideal inexpensive gift, a new
craft project, or something to help ease your aching muscles,
learning to make bath salts is entertaining and rewarding.
