To make an Epsom salt bath, you can: 1 Use 2 cups of Epsom salt for a standard-size bathtub with warm water (never more than 101.5 to 102°F (38.6 to 38.8°C). 2 Pour the salt under the water spout. This allows for the salt to dissolve faster and mix fully into the bath. ... 3 Soak in the tub for at least 12 minutes (or 20, for constipation).
Directions: 1 1 cup Epsom salt 2 2 tablespoons powdered mustard 3 2 drops rosemary essential oil 4 2 drops eucalyptus essential oil 5 Mix ingredients and pour into a clean, dry container.
Epsom salt will dissolve quickly if put under running water. Mix oils together, then add to bathwater after tub is full. Swirl the water to disperse the oils before entering the bathtub. Soak 20-30 minutes. Use a detox bath daily, weekly, or monthly depending on needs.
So, if you are planning on doing a detox bath, or even if you just want to improve the general health of your skin, consider adding a cup of Epsom salt to your bath. When used in a detox bath, essential oils can help boost your ability to sweat, assist in the removal of toxins and reduce the appearance of cellulite.
