What You’ll Need
  

  • 1 cup Epsom salt
  • 1-1/2 cup Himalayan sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
  • 4-8 drops of rose essential oil
  • 1/3 cup organic dried rose petals
  • Food processor or blender decorative airtight containers

Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • mason jars

Directions
 

  1. Stir the baking soda, Epsom salt, and Himalayan sea salt together in a bowl.
  2. Add the rose essential oil, 4-8 drops depending on how strong you like it.
  3. Pulse the rose petals in a food processor or blender until they look like confetti.
  4. Stir the petals into the salt with a spoon or your hands.
  5. Spoon into decorative airtight containers.

Notes

Add 1/2 to 1 cup to a warm bath. Keep airtight and dry. Use organic, pesticide-free roses, and catch the petals before draining (or use a shower strainer) so they don't clog the drain. Safety: do a patch test first. Rose oil is costly, so rose absolute or a rose fragrance oil can stand in.
