"Apple Pie" Bath Salts

Submitted by PetsRus

"Treat yourself and also make this as a gift. I did not give amounts of the fragrance oil, just add them by "smell" Use the layering technique, don't make it too wet with the oils because the layers will become the same color then, or just mix it all together. The salts will have a light golden brown color."

Pick A Chef couldn't have come at a better time. I'm so glad I chose this recipe as one of the 3 to fix. Not only does the finished product look and smell great, my whole house smells like apple pie. My daughter's school is doing a fund raiser and the kids from her class are to bring in bath and body products...guess what we are sending??? I've already got their jar ready and decorated. DD used this in her bath last night...in order to "sample" it...she loved it and can't wait to try other scents. Thanks for sharing this recipe and for answering many questions. ;) ~k

Ohhhhh heavenly! I only made enough of this for a few baths because I knew it would take me forever to use up 6 cups worth! I used 1 cup of salt and parred the recipe down that way. This scent is so nice and warm. What a great fragrance to enjoy while you are soaking in the tub! My skin felt very soft after the bath and I felt rejuvinated. Thanks for sharing this simple yet decadent recipe!

I quartered this recipe and made a small batch of this for my friend's mom in the afternoon today. I have used for 1 1/2 cups of salt and 1/4 cup of baking soda, 7 drops of orange 100% pure essential oil, 9 drops of lemon 100% pure essential oil and 12 drops of 100% pure grapefruit essential oil. I forgot to reduce the quantity of cinnamon and I've ended up using 3 tsps. but I dont mind, really, because, I just love the aroma of the cinnamon and the blend of the oils in this like I've used. The bath salt is a lightly brown coloured one(due to the extra cinnamon) but it looks good, smells great and left my hands soft and smooth after use. Thank you for the recipe!
