If you use Mediterranean salt it comes like that gravelly looking.
bianca says
it looks wet – did you use an oil of some sort to bring it together (not in ingredients list). I think that i used fine table salt rather than chunkier salt which is probably why the size of crystals are different 🙂
Heidi says
I did not, but you could add a little coconut oil or baby oil. I think probably the lighting when I took the picture also gave it a wetter look 🙂
bianca says
thanks – mine is much more blonde but still smells lovely!!! Looking forward to bath time!
bianca says
Hi, thanks for posting. Just wondering how you got it to be that colour and that size crystals? Mine stayed pretty white and the size of the fine epsom salts.
Cheers
Heidi says
It was the spices I used and the salts. You could use Pink Himalayan Salt to start with a darker color
Jennifer says
Are you using essential oils or actual seasonings?
Heidi says
I used the actual seasonings I had in the kitchen, but you could use essential oils easily.
