Happy weekend to us! I'm off having fun at the Magic Kingdom, and will need a little relaxing after my adventures. Luckily, I've got some DIY Chocolate Bath Salt in my bag just for that! I love making these (in lots of different scents) and they're one of the easiest DIYs. They smell delicious! I've seen bath salt for up to $25--that's crazy! You can make your own for so much cheaper.You'll love these as a gift or as a Valentine's Day treat. Enjoy.
Need:
2 c sea salt
2 tsp cocoa powder
10 drops essential oil
Do:
Mix ingredients.
Allow to dry overnight.
Store in an airtight container.
Pour a cup into warm bath water. Relax!
Try:
- The possibilities are endless with the fragrance combinations. I like mint, coconut, or strawberry.
- If you don't want to use an essential oil, try a tablespoon or two of a light oil or vegetable glycerin.
- I like adding 1/2c of baking soda to soften skin.
FYI:
- This makes enough for 2 baths. Feel free to make smaller/larger batches by adjusting the recipe.
- Kosher or Epsom salts may be used in place of sea salt.
- After about 20 minutes or so, I rinse off before exiting the tub.
- If allergic to ingredients, have high blood pressure, or are pregnant, please consult physician before using.

Oh man this sounds amazing, it makes me want to use it right now. I have a question where do you buy essential oils? I always see you mention them but I have no idea where you buy them.

ReplyDeleteOooh I hope you're having fun at the Magic Kingdom! This looks so awesome and I would totally try it if I were a DIY person... alas, if it cannot be purchased in a store it's probably not happening for me. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOK, I seriously need to make this for gifts for friends. I can imagine how good it smells from here — and it looks so pretty! :)
