Himalayan Harmony Salt Soak Kit - Instructions
🛡️ Safety & Storage
- IMPORTANT: Do not exceed 6 drops of essential oil per bath (or do not add more than 250 g of salt (1 cup) when following this recipe).
- Be careful not to add too much carrier oil to your salt — it can cause the bathtub to become slippery. Always be mindful that the bathtub could become slippery when using the salts.
- Never add undiluted essential oils directly to bath water — always blend with salts and carrier oil.
- For children or sensitive skin, use fewer drops of essential oil.
- If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have preexisting health conditions, we recommend seeking medical advice before using the ingredients in this kit as a precaution.
- Always use clean, dry tools and bowls when handling your salts.
- Store finished salts in airtight containers, in a cool, dry and dark place.
- Use within 6–12 months for the best aroma and freshness.
🌿 How it Works + Tips
Your salt soak kit is designed to be flexible and customisable. Here’s how to get the most from it:
- Make small batches first — try blending a few cups of salt at a time instead of the whole bag. This way, you can test scent strength, colour, and texture before committing.
- Adjust to your needs — some people love a richer, oilier bath, while others prefer a lighter, free-flowing salt. Experiment with different ratios of carrier oil, clay, and botanicals until it feels right for you. (But be mindful that oil can make the bath slippery, so rinse well before standing).
- Mix + match — you don’t have to use everything at once. Keep your oils, botanicals, clay and mix depending on your mood — calming, refreshing, or uplifting.
- Less is more with oils — remember, you only need a few drops of essential oil per salt soak (max 6 drops). Start light and build if needed.
- Keep notes — jot down your favourite combinations so you can recreate them later.

🧂 Full Salt Soak Recipe & Method — Standard 1 kg Batch
Makes: 1 kg of soak salts
-
Prep
- Lay out your bowl, jars, and ingredients.
- Ensure everything is clean and dry — moisture causes clumping.
-
Base Mix
- Add 1 kg Fine Himalayan Salt into your bowl.
-
Measure Carrier Oil In Beaker
- Measure 16–20 g Carrier Oil into a beaker.
- Tip: You can always add more oil if needed later.
-
Add Essential Oils To Beaker
- Add up to 8–24 drops of Essential Oil to the carrier oil. (Do not exceed more than 0.8 g of total Essential Oils for safe limits.)
- Blend the essential oil and carrier oil together.
- Tip: Start with less Essential Oil — you can always add more, but be sure to blend it into the Carrier Oil. Do not add Essential Oil straight to the salt.
- ⚠️ Do not exceed 24 drops per 1 kg of salts (≈ 0.8 g EO).
-
Pour Carrier Oil & Essential Oils Into Salt
- Mix well until all of the oils are blended. This is important to ensure the Essential Oils are used at a safe rate/consistency.
-
Add Clay (Optional)
- Sprinkle in up to 10–20 g of Clay.
- Stir until colour and texture are even. Clay gives a creamy bath feel.
-
Add Botanicals
- Mix-In: Fold into the salts for texture and natural beauty.
- Decorative Top: Sprinkle a pinch on top when packaging for a spa-like look.
- Pro Tip: Start with less and add more if you feel it needs more visual appeal.
- Package & Store
-
- Scoop salts into airtight jars or pouches.
- Label with scent, date made, and any special notes.
- Keep sealed and in a cool, dark place to maintain fragrance and prevent clumping.
✨ Usage
- Add ½–1 cup of salt to a warm (but not hot) bath.
- ⚠️ Important: If following this recipe, Do Not add more than 1 cup of solution to your bath, as it may exceed safe Essential Oil Limits.
- We recommend testing a small amount of salts (¼ cup) initially in bath water to see how your skin responds.
- Stir the water to dissolve.
- Soak, relax, and enjoy your custom creation.
Important: Be careful with using the salts in your shower/bath. The carrier oil can cause the floor to become slippery. Always be mindful that the floor could become slippery when using the salts. Avoid adding more carrier oil than is advised in this recipe.
