Nice! My wife LOVED this! I told my wife, "Just don't smoke it!". -
The idea of adding essential oils and food colour, in particular, is a real nice one. I tried this with peppermint essential oil and it left my skin feeling cool, soft and smooth. Thanks for posting! -
Great and very easy to make. I made Brown sugar and fig. Smelled so good! -
This is so easy to make and so much healthier to use than the bath salts you buy in the store. The whole house smelled fragrant the day I made them and the day I bottled them!!! -
I used a gallon sized baggie to mix the salts. It worked great and I didn't have any clumps to break up. Thanks for the great recipe!

My family is usually scared to ask what's for dinner as it probably will be something we have never had before and none of us know if we will like it. I have a family full of picky eaters, but I always make them at least try something before deciding if they like it or not!
