DIY Lavender-Rose Bath Soak
This bath soak was created to provide relaxation for the body and mind.
The combination of salts in this bath soak help to soothe tired muscles and may even draw out toxins. The minerals contained in the salts may also be absorbed through the skin, providing added benefits beyond relaxation.
The scents of rose and lavender give this bath soak an uplifting fragrance.
I've included Redmond Bath Salt in this recipe, which is healing to the skin and body. It contains a high amount of trace minerals and gives this bath soak a lovely color and texture.
If you don't have Redmond bath salt on hand, you could increase the amount of the other salts. However, I encourage you to give Redmond salt a try as it provides a unique and greatly beneficial soaking experience.
