How to make your own bath salt

A perfect gift idea for Christmas. Making your own bath salts is personal, saves you money and you'll know exactly what's in it.

I love making bath salts as gifts. It's so easy to make and I love knowing that's every ingredient is natural because I put it in there. 

To make your own bath salt you'll need:

Coarse sea salt - 6 parts 

Epsom salt - 3 parts

Baking soda - 1 part 

Essential oil - few drops

I also added some dried lavender as I think it's pretty and gives it a more natural look.

Taking a bath with Epsom salts and baking soda is an effective way to flush toxins and increase magnesium levels. Epsom salt soothes tired muscles. Baking soda is known for its cleansing ability and anti-fungal properties. It also leaves the skin feeling soft.

Put the salt in a nice mason jar or reuse any old jars from your kitchen.
