Ingredients


10 drops Juniper Berry
10 drops Grapefruit
6 drops Rosemary
1 drops Fennel (Sweet)
1 cup Epsom Salts
1 cup Salt
1/2 cup Baking Soda
6 tbsp Carrier oil of your choice
Warnings - Juniper Berry is best avoided during pregnancy and by people with kidney disorders. Grapefruit oil can cause photosensitivity. If you use it on your skin, avoid exposure to the sun or sunbeds for 12 hours. Do not apply Rosemary oil on or near the face of infants or young children. Rosemary oil is best avoided during pregancy. Fennel (Sweet) is estrogenic and therefore should not be used in pregnancy, breastfeeding, endometriosis and estrogen-sensitive cancers. Fennel oil is best avoided by babies and young children.

Ingredients

Instructions

1. Mix the salts and baking soda together in a glass bowl.
2. Add the essential oils and carrier oil and mix. I like to use Jojoba oil as the carrier oil as it's so nourishing for the skin but you can use any carrier oil you prefer.
3. Add around half a cup of the mix to a hot bath and stir to dissolve.
4. Store the remainder in a glass jar in a dark place.

You'll see some bath salt recipes that don't use carrier oil but if you leave the carrier oil out, you'll end up with undiluted drops of essential oil floating in the bath and getting onto your skin - this can cause irritation, particularly if the oil comes into contact with sensitive areas of the skin. So I always use carrier oil in my bath salts.
