This champagne bath salt recipe is a blend of salts that are both relaxing and detoxifying. I know, champagne sounds like a strange scent for a bath salt, but there is just something refreshing and relaxing about this fragrance oil.
Like, how do they make it so you can smell bubbles? And it’s strange because when I originally got this fragrance, I wasn’t sure it would be one that I liked in the bath, turns out it’s one of my favorite bath scents.
I’ve always been a bit of a bath person, but lately I’ve doubled down on baths. The thing I love about this blend of salts is that they are extremely relaxing and help to reduces stress. Let’s be honest, at this point we all have a little more stress than we had pre-covid.

Bath Salt Ingredients
Dendritic Salt
This salt is the secret to making bath salts that don’t clump together. The reason is because the salt is super fine and has a bigger surface area, meaning that it can hold more oils (roughly 2 times as much oil). Along with being better at holding onto the fragrance oil, it is dispersed into the bath water faster than other salts.
Epsom Salt
Fun fact, Epsom salt isn’t actually a salt. Rather, it is minerals (magnesium and sulfate) that are found in water that forms into salt form. And it’s because it takes that crystalized form that it is called salt. This is probably the most well know aid for relaxing sore muscles.
Dead Sea Salt
This salt is packed full of minerals, 21 to be exact. It is also super absorbent, which is perfect for helping to absorb the fragrance oil in bath salts to avoid clumping. The minerals in this salt are great for helping to relax your muscles. The salt is also hydrating for our skin.
Mica Powder
I love the bursts of color that you get with adding mica powder to the dead sea salt. You can get as wild as you want with your color combinations. Or, you can leave the color out completely if you want. There is such a small amount of mica, it’s not something that is going to color the bath tub (or leave a color ring around the tub).
