Herbal Bath Soak

ingredients:
5lb epsom salt or magnesium (buy here or here)
3 cups organic rose petals (I usually go for this brand)
4 tablespoons sweet almond oil
2 tablespoons colloidal oats
1 tablespoon rose absolute oil
40 drops ylang ylang eo
10 drops clary sage eo
germall natural preservative (to prevent molding of organic material)

this recipe is customizable. you can use any mix of herbals and oils for to make bath salts, soaks, and teas. it makes 5-6 one pound containers (depending on the amount of petals/herbs you use).

instructions:
mix oils and preservative in a small bowl.
mix epsom salt, petals/herbs, colloidal oats, and sea salt in a large bowl.
dump your oil and preservative mixture into your dry ingredient bowl.
stir gently with wooden spoon until combined.
separate into your air tight containers.

tips:
sometimes less expensive brands of epsom salt have extra ingredients. use cation and check ingredient list when deciding to use epsom salt vs magnesium.

mixing your oil and preservative mixture with the rose petals, before adding it to the salt, can decrease stir time.

organic ingredients are crucial for this. which adds to the price tag, I know. the point of all of this is to detox from chemicals, right? why bathe in them.

you can use regular oats for this, I recommend putting them into a blender, reducing them to powder form. using colloidal oats will ensure you’re getting top quality products and possible benefits!

sweet almond oil is made of tree nuts. if you do have a tree nut allergy, I recommend using organic jojoba oil.

I charge $15 per 1lb container. this is enough to cover overhead expense plus interest for the card you charged. ok byeeee. thank you. byeee.

disclaimer from my husband: get a overflow cover and a drain cover to prevent organic materials from clogging your pipes! wipe tub out immediately after bathing to prevent tub staining. ye be warned!
