homemade bath fizzies bath snow
This home made bath fizzies recipe reminds me of snow. I made this bath product to celebrate a record breaking snowstorm. Muscles needed some TLC after shoveling our driveways for a few hours.
I labeled it Bath Snow and packaged it in small glass jars with little shovels. These fizzies are a fusion of bath salts and bath bombs that leaves your skin feeling extra soft and pampered.

This recipe creates a product that is great for the skin. Epsom salt and sea salt are said to relax muscles and detoxify skin. The oil provides moisturizer for your skin. The essential oils can also add to the overall benefits of the product. I scented mine with warm sweet pea fragrance but many essential oils would be comforting.
Dendritic salt absorbs twice the amount of oil which means that it will carry scent and color better than other salts. This is why many bath products artisans use it to retain their fragrance, avoid clumping and for a better dissolution.
