Sugar Scrub and Bath Salts

Hey Everybody !! The recipe for the sugar scrub and the bath salts are pretty easy. You should have most of the stuff you need at home. I am guessing that the only items you will need to purchase will be the epsom salt and the essential oils.

I went to a workshop that a friend did before Christmas, which is where I first learned to make this. I checked out a couple websites this week and figured out the easiest, simplest recipe.

BATH SALTS

16 oz of epsom salt (can be purchased at drugstore or grocery store)
15-30 drops of essential oils (we bought ours at New Frontiers)
3-5 drops of food coloring

mix in a sandwich bag to spread the color and scent

best stored in a glass jar with a lid

NOTE: You can use a mixture of epsom salt and dead sea salts in a 2 to 1 ratio

SUGAR SCRUB
1 cup sugar 1 cup olive oil 5 drops essential oils Mix Well - you might need to add a little more sugar like we did at MOPS

best stored in a glass jar with a lid


I actually think I am going to make some sugar scrub next week. I currently have a bottle of sweet orange and sandalwood plus a little bit of eucalyptus. I should have smooth heels and elbows by the time I can put my flip flops back on !
