Magnesium Enriched Bath Salts

Bath salts have been used for centuries as a simple yet powerful way to relax the body, soothe the skin, and restore a sense of calm after a long day. More than just a luxurious addition to your bath, a well formulated blend of mineral rich salts and botanicals can support muscle recovery, ease tension, promote restful sleep, and nourish the skin naturally.

Whether you are seeking deep relaxation, stress reli

ef, or a moment of mindful self care, bath salts offer a beautiful way to turn everyday bathing into a healing ritual.

The recipe that I am going to share with you will make up a 500g batch (approx 5 - 8 baths). Simply add 2 - 3 good handfuls to your bath and soak for 20 - 30 minutes.

Ingredients:

180g Epsom Salts - for muscle relaxation & magnesium boost.

120g Dead Sea Salt - for skin softening & trace minerals.

80g Magnesium Flakes - for deep muscle & nervous system support.

70g Pink Himalyan Salt - I use course ground for a nice visual appeal but pink salt also contains vital trace minerals.

40g Bicarbonate of Soda - for softening the water and your skin.

10g Dried Botanicals - eg: Rose Petals, Lavender Flowers.

Essential Oils - Rose 10 - 15 drops max, Lavender 30 - 40 drops.

(additional oil blends are listed below)

Method:

Add all your salts and magnesium Flakes to a glass or stainless steel bowl and combine.

In another bowl add your bicarbonate of soda and your chosen essential oils and mix really well until there are no more wet clumps.

Add the bicarb/essential oil blend to the bowl of salts and mix well.

Add your chosen botanicals to the mix and gently combine.

Transfer your salts to your chosen container - ideally something air tight so that your salts don't clump and stick together.
