Burt's Bees Bath Salts

For a relaxing (and cheap) bath.

I love Burt's Bees products, but they are a bit pricey, so I thought I would try making my own salts. I scooped two large handfuls of rock salt, one sea salt and one Himalayan. I then added two tablespoons of baking soda and mixed it in. After that I added a few drops of each of the oils. This is dependant on what smells you like, so feel free to experiment. The Eucalyptus Oil is quite strong, which is great for clearing the sinuses, but be careful about how much you add. I only added enough oil for it to soak into the salts, as Burt's Bees Bath salts are typically quite dry. I would say about 6 drops of each oil to every two large handfuls of the salts. Draw your bath and relax.
