Natural Bath Soak Recipe

Pamper yourself with a luxurious and soothing natural bath soak, perfect for cold winter nights. Here's a simple recipe using ingredients from our site:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of Epsom salts
  • 1/2 cup of Himalayan pink salt
  • 1/2 cup of baking soda
  • 10-15 drops of essential oil (e.g., lavender, eucalyptus, or chamomile)
  • 1/4 cup of dried flowers (e.g., lavender, rose petals, or chamomile)
  • 2 tablespoons of carrier oil (e.g., almond oil, coconut oil, or jojoba oil)

Equipment:

  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon
  • Airtight jar or container

Instructions:

  1. Combine Salts and Baking Soda:

    • In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of Epsom salts, 1/2 cup of Himalayan pink salt, and 1/2 cup of baking soda. These ingredients help to relax muscles, detoxify the body, and soften the skin.

  2. Add Essential Oils:

    • Add 10-15 drops of your chosen essential oil to the salt mixture. Essential oils not only add a pleasant fragrance but also offer various therapeutic benefits. For a relaxing bath, lavender or chamomile oils are great choices; for a refreshing and invigorating experience, eucalyptus oil works well.

  3. Incorporate Carrier Oil:

    • Add 2 tablespoons of carrier oil to the mixture. This helps to moisturise the skin and prevents the essential oils from irritating the skin. Almond oil, coconut oil, or jojoba oil are all excellent options.

  4. Mix in Dried Flowers:

    • Gently stir in 1/4 cup of dried flowers. Lavender, rose petals, or chamomile flowers not only look beautiful but also enhance the aromatic experience of the bath soak.

  5. Store in an Airtight Container:

    • Transfer the mixture to an airtight jar or container to keep it fresh. Label it with the date and contents.

  6. Usage:

    • Add 1/2 to 1 cup of the bath soak mixture to warm bath water. Stir the water to help dissolve the salts. Soak in the bath for at least 20 minutes to fully enjoy the relaxing and rejuvenating benefits.

This DIY natural bath soak is a wonderful way to indulge in self-care while using all-natural ingredients. Enjoy your relaxing bath time!
