I love soaking in a nice warm bath with scented Epsom salts. The problem I run into is that, unless I’m willing to spend extra for a high-end brand, I’m left with a product that has an artificial or chemical smell.
Plus, I like to add an extra generous scoop of bath salts to the tub, so I go through packages of this stuff way too quickly.
This recipe for Lavender & Ylang Ylang Bath Salts is quick and easy. It also allows you to make several batches at once, if you choose. It’s a natural, inexpensive solution to enjoying department store bath salts.
