Now that the winter is almost here we start feeling like a nice, hot, relaxing bath and what best for it that a good handful of bath salts. Bath salts are really easy to make and if you put them in a nice package or a cristal bottle they are the perfect present for Christmas. To make them you just need some coarse salt, soap colorants and some essential oils or cosmetic fragances. Place the salt in a crystal bowl and add a very small amount of colorant (either liquid or in powder) and mix thoroughly, then add your essential oils or fragances and the salts are ready to package. This recipe is for the most basic bath salts but you can add many other ingredients to make them more interesting. Try experimenting with sodium bicarbonate and citric acid to add fizz to the salts, or adding, goat's milk powder, powdered yoghurt, powdered aloe vera, epsom salts ... anything that you can think of and that's beneficial for your skin. If they get too wet you can add a little bit of tapioca starch to make them dryer.
For those of you who still have not tried making soap because you find it difficult, this is a very easy project to start with. Give it a try and let me know how it turns out.
