These soaking salts are easy to make, and are great for wedding or party favors! They can also be used as a scrub.
Ingredients
Ten 4 oz. Plastic Bail Jars
40 oz. Fine Grained Dead Sea Salt
3 oz. Avocado Oil
0.4 oz. Sweet Pea Fragrance Oil
0.4 oz. Tobacco & Bay Leaf Fragrance Oil
King’s Gold Mica
Rose Gold Mica
12 mL Optiphen
Optional: Droppers
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, mix the fine grained Dead Sea salt and 3 oz of avocado oil. Use your hands or a spatula to thoroughly mix together.
Add the Optiphen and continue to mix until it’s thoroughly mixed in.
Note: Although this scrub doesn’t contain water, it will likely get water splashed in it during use. The extra water may cause bacteria and mold to grow. We added a preservative to be extra careful. You can read more in the Talk It Out Tuesday: Preservatives post.
Split the salts in half. This way, you can add different color and scents. If you are only making one, do not split the batch. To one batch, add the Tobacco and Bay Leaf Fragrance Oil and ½ tsp. King’s Gold Mica. Use your hands or spatula to thoroughly mix in.
To the other batch of salts, add ½ tsp. Rose Gold Mica and a pinch of King’s Gold Mica to create a slightly warmer tone. Then add the Sweet Pea Fragrance Oil and use your hands or a spatula to thoroughly mix in.
Fill each jar with salts. To use as a scrub, apply to damp skin and use circular motions to gently exfoliate. This scrub is great for legs, body, hands and feet, but might be a little scratchy for the face. To use as soaking salts, scoop a heaping spoonful of the salts into hot bath water. Enjoy!
