\n1 cup\u00a0pink himalayan salt<\/a>
\n10-15 drops\u00a0essential oil<\/a> (I used grapefruit<\/a>)
\n2 tbsp\u00a0rosemary<\/a><\/p>\n![\"Grapefruit](\"http:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Grapefruit-rosemary-bath-salts-DIY.jpg\")
There’s a lot of enthusiasm over the benefits of pink himalayan salt, but my main motivator for using it is that it’s very pretty. \u00a0I know you agree. \u00a0It’s also probably the priciest material in this mixture, so the proportion can definitely be reduced to cut cost, or you can use dye<\/a> on the clear salt for your own creative colored result.<\/p>\n![\"DIY](\"http:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/DIY-Grapefruit-rosemary-bath-salts-1.jpg\")
I love the way rosemary pairs with grapefruit,\u00a0plus\u00a0adding herbs to the mixture gives it a very beautiful organic detail. \u00a0Really, you can go wild with any combo of salts, essential oils, herbs, and flowers. \u00a0Think lavender oil with lavender flowers, rose oil with rose petals, vanilla with cinnamon… any other combos you’ve tried or would like to?<\/p>\n![\"DIY](\"http:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/DIY-Grapefruit-rosemary-bath-salts-Homey-Oh-My-1.jpg\")
