I hope whomever receives these beautiful products that you make understands how incredibly blessed they are. I miss your website!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thank you! They were gifted to a couple of new Moms.💝

Hi Ellen, I’m so glad you’re still going to stay on with soaping. I’ve never replied to any of your videos, but I have to tell you that you are my favorite. I’ve been watching for about a year and your tops on my list. Take care.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thank you so much!🛁

Watch the Pea Flower buds. Too many will turn the bathwater blue. Don't ask me how I know.... just trust me. lol

[@nancykelly9712]

I love your bath salts, I bet they smell so good! 💞 Note that anyone with blood pressure issues should never soak in dead sea salt!

[@karlad3213]

That bottle.... Stunning!!! I just love glass alcohol bottles they are all so unique and beautiful. The salts are very pretty. ❤️

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Yes! I love to recycle beautiful bottles💕

[@BeechHillSoap]

Hi Ellen! I’m wondering what you would retail the jars for. I love this recipe! Thank you, thank you!!😊

[@chcknnggts]

Maybe you could use shrink wrap gift bags or roll for the time you need an odd sized seal. You could cut it to size and heat it.

[@debravogt7139]

I just found a similar bottle at my local grocery! I snatched it up! :Not the same brand; because of the top! I found it the it the night after I saw this video!! Lol!

[@TiffanyGaddie]

Hi there I would love to get more information on how to make soap? That's been my dream for along time, 😮I want to make lotion products also

[@CarolinaGirlCreationZ]

I just bought my first essential oils to make bath salts for family and friend's gifts and it says to use carrier oil. Is my skin going to fall off if I don't use a carrier oil? LOL!

[@steelersgirl071961]

This is a very nice video, ive been thinking about adding a scented salt bath and you gave me the inspiration to do it lol, thank you Ellen for the video ❤❤😊😊!!

[@Jackie-bz1nv]

I love Anthony's I buy a lot of their products.

[@learning2no]

Ellen, you could tie a bag on the neck of your bottle.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Yes🛁💕

[@Rodmic-hd9pn]

How about super grounded Himalayan salt?

[@CarolinaGirlCreationZ]

I'm commenting again because I wanted to come back to your video for making bath salts ever since I found how much I love using bath bombs. I make handmade cold processed soap but wanted to try my hand at this bath product. My question is, how specific do our ingredients in this need to be measured compared to cold processed soap? Since I've been on my venture to mix different salts and essential oils for single bath times, I've not measured and have used what feels good to me but I'm kind of afraid of messing up my skin now that I've rewatched your tutorial. I also want to add colloidal oats and maybe some kaolin clay which I learned from in my soap from your channel. Thank you so very much Ms Ellen for always being so willing to share your techniques. I've purchased your soap bars in the past because I want to support your channel so I thank you again for any feedback you can offer. I'm sorry this is so long.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

One of the lovely things about bath salts is they are so flexible, you can customize it in so many ways. I just like to keep the mixed salts as the main bulk of it, and have the additves be a smaller portion of the total. You really can't go wrong, especially when it's going into a tub full of water and being diluted that much..

[@Rodmic-hd9pn]

I found the same bottle n put a bath scrub in it

[@BeechHillSoap]

Hi Ellen! I’m wondering what you would retail the jars for. I love this recipe! Thank you, thank you!!😊

Hey Ellen! I just watched this, and I heard you say you have a deodorant recipe coming?!?!?! So stinking excited. I have made multiple deodorants and have yet to find one that works well for me, so I'm excited to see what your recipe is! Thank you again for all your videos! I always look forward to seeing them. You do a great job of making us feel like we are right there with you, which is always fun!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Yes, the deodorant video is coming 3/22❣️

Hi Ellen, I recently wernt to your werbsite and it shows no products to purchase... are you strictly now into teaching soapmaking or will you be back again doing markets and selling on your website? Thanks!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Yes, I no longer sell products. Just YT tutorials.

It's so diluted in a tub full, but that would be pretty🛁

[@ladymsoaps]

My tired self just read that as buttermilk and cats 😂 I need some sleep but have been watching your videos for the last 5 hours while I prepare product for our state fair.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

🤣 Buttermilk and Cats.. Oh that gave me a good laugh!

[@pattiduken]

Hello Ellen. I have a question. If polysorbate 80 is not used, would the fragrance oil sit on the surface of the water?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Yes, that is a possibility. But it's such a small amount, I don't think it would float around too much..

[@Missdaisymay83]

This looks beautiful! My biggest hesitation in making bath salts is that they absorb moisture. Do you ever find the need to use Natrasorb? Or is the dendritic salt enough?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

I've been very happy with how the dendritic salt works, and haven't had an issue with moisture👍

[@cheryl739]

I am in love with that wine bottle! Such a clever theme inspiration! Thanks so much for sharing! Even though I love soaping, it is such a wonderful switchup to watch you make Bath Salts. Cheers & Blessings 💕🌹

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Yes, it’s such a fun and easy project 🛁

[@niccoleholmes567]

[@authentichomestead]

Doing bath salts sounds so interesting. I know there is a soap calculator determining ratios when you make cold process soap, but I'm curious if there's a calculator when doing other things like salts, Bath bombs, etc.?

[@learning2no]

From what I understand the manufacturer of the fragrance oils and essential oils gives you information on each oil and what they can be used in and the amount.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Because there's no chemical reaction or process to bath salts, it's pretty flexible on ratios...🛁

[@sandeeconn4671]

How beautiful is this!!! I love your channel! As an RMT, I love to incorporate bath products into my clinic - my clients love taking something like this home after I recommend it. I see you use lots of fragrance oils...do you use EO's at all? I have found when I use fragrance oils, they are very strong if I go by some recipe's I have found, so I mostly use small ratio's of EO's instead.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

So glad you're enjoying the videos❣️ I do use E.O's, but mostly F.O's. I do choose quality fragrances that are phthalate-free.

[@sandeeconn4671]

@@EllenRuthSoap I have a few fragrance oils, I believe phthalate free. Maybe I'm just using too much?

[@wendyirving6530]

I love this receipe. Could you sub goats milk powder for butter milk powder?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Yes, absolutely💕

I use to buy new wine/alcohol if I liked the bottle...found some really good stuff!! Hubby is now sober for a little over two years, so don't buy stuff like I use too. lol I love all your stuff!! Can you switch the buttermilk for Goats Milk? I can't wait to try this!! Thanks @EllenRuthSoap ❤❤❤

[@elizabethwhite8696]

does this recipe leave oily residue around the tub?

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Not if you use the poly 80👍

[@latui7350]

Regarding baking soda, it is irritating to your skin when it's in contact with skin in higher concentrations in things like a deodorant, but in a bath there is so much water to dilute the baking soda it'd be unlikely to cause irritation.

[@cassmartin5851]

Looks gorgeous. Bet it smells even better. For me, the description box is in the line that says how many views the video has. It just says 'more'.

[@driffle3699]

If using a surfactants, how much do you use.

[@EllenRuthSoap]

I use the poly 80 as an emulsifier...

[@HelpForDailyLiving]

Love your videos! A few seconds of your personality is what got me to stay and eventually subscribe. You’re so down to earth and just real. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful creations. May God bless you abundantly! Regarding this recipe, I have everything but the milk powder. Can I make it without it? If so, would I add more colloidal oats to make up for it? How would altering the recipe impact the fragrance ratio? Thank you so much!

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Thank you❣️. Yes, you can skip the milk powder and add a touch more oats or another dry ingredient.

[@HelpForDailyLiving]

@@EllenRuthSoap Thanks. How much would a “touch more” be? Another 50-100 grams?

Hello, lovely video! Does anyone happen to know what we in Europe can use instead of dendritic salt? As far as I know we don’t get it here. Thanks in advance 😊

[@EllenRuthSoap]

A fine grind quality Sea Salt can be used as a sub.

[@falkor_atreyu]

Just an FYI, if you have a shrink band too big make it smaller by using a manual sealer, like you’d use for shrink wrap bags on soap, then it would if on smaller products and you’d still have the other perforated side 🤷🏼‍♂😅

[@EllenRuthSoap]

Great suggestion, thanks❣️

[@cliviascreations]

I love butterfly pea flowers and use them for facial serums. You can get a beautiful blue to pink or even purple depending on the ph. Anyhow the salts are amazing and that wine bottle is stunning, omg. Ellen for years I refused to wrap my products. Lesson learned the hard way. Don’t even want to remember. It’s a must!
