DIY Bath Salts

Avatar of Sunny-S

Posted October 6, 2011 by Sunny Subramanian

I’m a HUGE fan of baths! Showers are great and all, but they are strictly business—I like to soak and de-stress in pretty-smelling water while I listen to some relaxing music and pretend that I’m at a fancy-schmancy resort (near a beach) getting pampered to the max. :)

Bath salts are key for a perfect bath—trust me. They contain Epsom salts, which are known to have many health benefits, and they ease various aches and pains. Also, the magnesium in the compound helps to release serotonin in the body, which leaves you feeling calm and relaxed. Be sure to purchase a cruelty-free baking soda as well as sea salt and an essential oil in your favorite scent.

Get ready to detox your skin and rejuvenate your body and mind. ?I swear I’m not gettin’ all hippy-dippy on y’all! ;)

    Bath salts are the weirdest thing I’ve ever heard of.

    Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.

    Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ

    Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.

    I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!

    I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
