Sandi (From CA)'s Note:

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz........... Epsom and sea salts help soothe tired muscles and the combination softens the water for a relaxing experience. Add 1 tablespoon of finely ground regular (not quick) oatmeal for even more skin softening. You can adjust the ingredients to suit your preferences... they're quite forgiving.

Ingredients:

Serves: 4

Yield:

baths, ...

Units: US | Metric

1 cup epsom salts
1/2 cup sea salt
2 -3 tablespoons baking soda
8 drops lavender oil (good quality essential oil)
lavender leaves (optional)
food coloring (red and blue) (optional)

Directions:

1

Combine salts and baking soda, then add essential oils and stir gently but well.
2

Add food coloring to achieve lavender (red and blue gets close if you don't have lavender-colored), then fold in lavender leaves if using. They tend to float in the bath, so be warned -- those aren't little bugs surrounding you!
3

Store in a tightly sealed jar and use about 1/3 cup per bath.
