How To Make Serene Spa Bath Salts

If you’ve ever wanted to make your own bath salts, we have the recipe to master that! Get ready to create serene maker magic.

If you’re considering treating yourself to an at-home spa day or want to add a line of bath salts to your handmade business, these hydrating and antioxidant-filled bath salts are the perfect companion for soaking in suds.

For the base of our salts, we're using all-natural, hand-harvested, ethically sourced Himalayan salt and organically grown bamboo jade salt. Both salts help to exfoliate and balance the skin.

We'll add 100% natural pomace olive oil which promotes intense moisturizing.

We'll be blending it with a fragrance oil featuring floral notes of rosemary, ivy, and geranium, plus lavender buds for a calming effect that makes these bath salts perfectly serene.

Once you’ve created your bath salts, you’ll package them in fun and chic cloud glam tins for an aesthetically pleasing display. If you're selling your salts, it's easy to add a label to your glam tins or switch up the colors based on different scents and ingredients.
