Hi Friends and Members I was thinking of something different that you may like to know how to make when you have your bath, so I put this one in to explain to your how to make these wonderful Rose bath salts. Materials: 2-cups of Epson salts 1-cup sea salt 20 drops Rose essential oil 1-tablespoon glycerin Dark pint (or red) paste or liquid food coloring 24 oz. decorative container Directions: Mix the salts together in a large plastic bag with a tight zipper seal. Add the rose oil and glycerin. Tightly seal and shake to combine. Add the food coloring and shake until the desired color is reached, adding more food coloring if necessary. Store in the zippered bag for one week, shaking once a day to evenly distribute the color and oils. Pour into the decorative container and label.

I have done this before, but not with the sea salt added. I think this makes a wonderful gift to give to friends and family. What does the sea salt do, or add? I know that the epsom salts are magnesium and soothe sore muscles, and the glycerin is a humectant, and soothes the skin by attracting moisture. Your favorite essential oils set a wonderful mood.

I have done this before also except for the sea salts. I have made them and sold it with matching bubble bath, luffa soap and regular bar soaps. I sold them in a set with a candle. They were very popular for a while then I moved and now I don't know anyone yet so I have stopped for a while.
