Recipe: Dendritic salt 200G, 50 G baking soda or corn starch, mix well. Fragrances oil 20G, 10G Polysorbate 80, 30G carrier oil and colour (if using), Mix very well with salt mixture. It will be goopy! Set aside for 5 minutes. Add in rest of salts (1200G) but use less Epsom Salt than other salts. Combine extremely well with hands. It will be moist. Spread out over lined cookie sheet. Place in oven at 170F for 15 minutes, but stir every five minutes. Allow to cool completely and place in a container/bowl. Rub mixture with hands to get rid of chunks. Once even, add pearl dust beads or Jojoba beads. Add calendula and blue cornflower petals to your preference. It should fall out of your hands easily. Package as desired.

Great instruction! I've watched many videos and you are the only one who showed the bake method! Thank you so much!

[@waynegross2113]

Beautiful salts! I use the Natrasorb in mine and like it pretty well, it is a natural product too. I like to put salts in gift sets particularly at Christmas! They sell very well! Jill Gross

[@kasie680]

And if you run out you can use corn starch or arrowroot

[@bspeakman5102]

@ jill or waynegross.How much natrasorb did u use.im unsure how much to use? Thx

[@julieallison8508]

Beautiful presentation! Im assuming milk powders, colloidal oats, and such can be added too. Would you add this in the beginning or to tye dry salts prior to packaging?

[@kasie680]

Just a tip, if you used a colored bowl, it would be easy to see 😊 rock salts also look really pretty if you coat with mica! They look like crystals ❤

[@NaturalMackie]

Thanks for sharing! As always a very informative video!

[@divinedata5416]

Next time can you please use a colored or black/dark color bowl? Hard to see the ingredients. Great info though really enjoyed this thank you. 🙏🤍

[@Amyseclecticlife]

Dollar tree those cute lottle jars????forrrealll ? I have never seen em even online I'd love to have those 2 different sizes of small cork bottles

[@denisehaley9271]

I've read that you shouldn't dry or bake your salts on aluminum foil ever, because of the chemical changes it causes in your salts. I simply use parchment paper or butchers paper.

[@jamiparrish8806]

Yes it becomes an aluminum salt, but i'm not sure the temperature needed to do this. It may not be a problem at a low temperature for a short period of time

[@chezsylvie007]

Hello which level do you place yours in the oven? Do you preheat the oven? I put mine in but it came out wet and it is clumping so I am air drying it but I would like to use the oven like you do.

[@NurseVickyVic]

Can you show how to shrink wrap?

[@thlbeautybahamianentrepren3171]

Hello where do you buy your botanicals from?

[@kathypelot2187]

Won't the botanicals clog your drains?

[@Creating_Myself]

Hey what if we have microwave? For how long should we keep them in microwave

[@BodyHavenSoaps]

A microwave Cooks with a completely different method and would not work for these salts

[@tenahaugdahl1378]

Does Hemp seed oil smell? Do you have to use hemp seed oil? Could I use almond or grapeseed oil?

[@BodyHavenSoaps]

You can use the type of Oil you like

[@cindylawrence1655]

what was the name of the salt you used to help stop it from clumping together? I didn't catch that.

[@BodyHavenSoaps]

Dendritic Salt

[@wendidixon1274]

Polysorbate 80 has also been causally linked with an increased risk of blood clots, stroke, heart attack, heart failure, and of tumor growth or recurrence in patients with certain types of cancer.

[@kasie680]

That’s when it’s added to food as an emulsifier, You use 2 ml in a big batch then that Is watered down in the tub, there’s no way use in a body product would cause the same issues

[@christeef6840]

Casually linked usually means unsubstantiated research. Please don't post things like this unless you also post links to valid research proving it to be true.

[@stillkickin9957]

Try making salts or bath bombs without it. Happy tub cleaning!

[@dominiquescalia104]

Where do you get your bulk herbs and flowers?

[@gr8stuff8]

Thank you Darleen. Hope I’ve spelt it right. And by the way I revisited your making of hibiscus butter and found the name of the tree bark you use. Taheebo . So inspired to make my own infused butters.

[@monicahains3198]

Beautiful. Love how the botanicals brightened up the salts. ❤

[@alisafraser6937]

So sorry u had the flood. I live in west kelowna if u ever need anything.

[@RayneyKayLa]

This is my FAVE video so far of making bath salts. Great job! I have a few silly questions: Should one use a separate oven for their salt drying than one they cook with for their families? Could I use a toaster oven?

[@BodyHavenSoaps]

I use a separate oven so no cross contamination but technically you can use what ever works for you , your oven will smell fragrant

[@lilliansamson8680]

I was trying to figure out how to make those! Thank you for this timely video

[@BodyHavenSoaps]

Glad I could help!

Hello, question I went to wholesale supplies plus to get the dust beads, and the have beads with Mct oil inside, where can I buy the pearl dust beads. Ty so much

@@BodyHavenSoaps 😊 I'm referring back to your video for these salts. I made and tested my first batch using your method and low & behold they never clumped! Phenomenal! Thankyou so much! I'm going to make another batch today and look forward to my apartment smelling like lavender & ylang ylang for the rest of the day😍

This is the best tutorial I’ve found on here! Thank you so much! 😊 Question: Will it be safe for me to use a gas oven? I was wondering if it’s safe since I’m using FO with different degrees of a flashpoint. Also, at what phase would I add goat milk powder?

[@dawsonwhisman]

If i wanted to add goats milk powder to my bath salt in which step would I add this?

[@katherinepowers7946]

These are very nice, I’ve never used Poly 80 so that’s really nice tip, thank you! 💕💜

[@mtblondie0036]

Yes poly 80 is amazing I use it in my bath bombs too

[@suzyt3820]

I put mine in the over for 15 mins, turning every 5 mins. Now after that they’ve been sitting for 24 hours, but they still seem wet. Can I put them back in the oven or what do I do?

[@bspeakman5102]

Hello fellow canadian. How much natrasorb would be used instead of the dendritic salt im not sure how much to use?

[@bluemoon2585]

I would love to do this for my coworkers for Christmas!!! Can you please clarify why the pearl dust beads are necessary? What’s the size of the tubes that you got on Amazon?

[@BodyHavenSoaps]

the pearl dust is not necessary you can make any blend you wish , I believe the tubes I got were 3oz

[@CarmenRodriguez-rj6my]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 clear, useful and beautiful, ThankU 😊

[@jxnn444]

What fragrance did you use? I heard hemp seed oil as carrier, but what's the fragrance? Your videos are hands down the best and most informative. I've been learning for 7 months now and you are definitely most interesting.

[@古政瑜]

Hello i can't find any polysorbate 80 in my country, what can substitute for that? And also the dendritic salt , natrasorb is not available.

[@sueatkinson3709]

Hi, I just came across your video. Thanks for sharing :) What would you colour these with plz? Can you use soap mica? TIA

[@lindapiccotti3311]

what about adding tapioca starch instead of Nutrasorb or Dentritic Salt?

would not work quite the same but you would have to give it a try

What if I substitute the baking soda for arrowroot... what are your thoughts

[@BodyHavenSoaps]

baking soda is more likely to pack in the product

How do you know how much polysorbate 80 to use in a recipe?

[@BodyHavenSoaps]

this is all done in the formulation of your recipe , it depends on amount of oils you are using and want polysorbate 80 to work with

[@oxPsYChExo]

Loved your video, I’ve never done bath salts, but you put in oven. I’ve seen other videos that they don’t use oven what’s the difference. Ty so much

[@BodyHavenSoaps]

I use the oven to secure the fragrance and not have botanicals change to brown colour

[@ivonvalle2683]

[@thorncut1]

If you add essential oils instead of fragrance, you add it after you remove the salts from the oven or it’s okay to add them similar to fragrance? Thank you!

Great video so informative. One question: if i can't get dendeitic salt & wanna substitude with natrasorb, is usage rate for natrasorb same 200g as per your recipe?

natrasorb is very light you would not use the same weigh
