Homemade Bath Salt

The term bath salts refers to a range of water-soluble, usually inorganic solid products designed to be added to a bath, either to improve cleaning, provide a medical improvement, to improve the experience of bathing, or to serve as a vehicle for cosmetic agents. Bath salts have been developed which mimic the properties of natural mineral baths or hot springs.

Reasons to Give Homemade Bath Salt
By Rachel Huston

Homemade bath salt is the perfect gift for many different occasions. It's easy and inexpensive to make, plus it's always appreciated by the recipient. There's just something about homemade gifts that speaks more to the recipient than any store-bought item could.

But if you need more convincing to start your own homemade bath salt, there's plenty more to this argument.

When it comes to gift-giving, homemade bath salt is extremely versatile. Possible reasons for giving homemade bath salt include: baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays, Christmas, Hanukah, other religious holidays, anniversaries, moving gifts, romantic gifts, friend gifts, celebrations, graduations, Mother's Day, Grandparent's Day, etc.

With so many difference gift giving possibilities, you may find yourself making large containers of homemade bath salt and keeping it on hand for any last-minute gifts.

Homemade bath salt is also a great way to personalize a gift. Because you're choosing the various ingredients as well as the presentation, you can create a gift that shows how much you care without it being a lot of work.

For example, a baby shower gift of homemade bath salt might be for mom, but that's no reason not to put the salt into a jar and then tie a rattle or pacifier to the outside. Or a wedding shower gift can include a lovely basket or a spa gift certificate.

A lot of people don't realize that homemade bath salt is also very healthy for the body as well as the overall mind. Because bath salt helps the body to release toxins into the water, the user can feel refreshed and relaxed.

And without the added chemicals that are found in store bought brands, homemade bath salt can be even more nourishing to the body. You don't have to add any ingredients that might cause a reaction in the recipient, nor do you have to add any coloring that they might sensitive to.

Homemade bath salt makes for a love way to greet guests that might be staying with you for a while. By placing a simple bottle of homemade bath salt on a guest towel with a note about how to use it, guests will feel like they are being pampered as well as being a special guest. And even if they don't use it, they can bring it home as a special reminder of their stay with you.

The personalization of homemade bath salt goes beyond the occasion as well as the packaging. By including a note about the reasons why certain ingredients were chosen, the recipient can feel like they are genuinely cared for and appreciated.

Which mom doesn't think that she needs homemade bath salt with relaxing herbs and fragrances? Or perhaps they want to feel rejuvenated once in a while (when they actually get to spend a night with their spouse - alone!).

And of course, homemade bath salt is simple to make with a few ingredients and a long afternoon. It's doesn't need to be intricate or overly complicated in order to fulfill its purpose. With a few herbs and a few drops of essential oils, the homemade bath salt can be ready to prepare and give to that special someone.

Homemade bath salt is the adult equivalent of making a gift for someone for an occasion, but with a lot more style and class. This is a gift that shows that you care about the person's health and well-being, without having to spend a lot of time or money. And the best part? If the person enjoys the homemade bath salt that they received, you can always help them refill their jar.

ThymuSkin for hair loss

ThymuSkin is a product which is primarily a thymus gland extract preparation made from the thymus gland of a calf, which is a food substance. Basically, one can start the program with two or three of the most important products. There is a hair loss treatment program that takes a different approach to stopping hair loss. Originally developed to help cancer patients regrow hair lost during chemotherapy. Thymuskin uses a thymus based formulation to combat hair loss.



I suggest Thymuskin Hair Treatment Lotion or Hair Treatment product. Thymuskin lotion is used daily after washing the scalp to help stop hair loss and facilitate hair growth. There are many hundred blends included in this lotion such as Aqua, Isopropyl alcohol, Thymus extract, Hydrolyzed collagen, Ethoxdiglycol, Equisetum Arvense, Tocopheryl Acetate, Castor Oil, Calcium Pantotenate, Aloe Barbadensis, Chloride, Potassium sorbate, Citric acid and more.

By Maureen Hope

Epsom Salts and Baking Soda Bath
Adding minerals and salts to your bath makes the water soft and silky and this is a great way to soften and cleanse your skin. Whilst the bath is running, add two cups of baking soda, one cup of epsom salts and try adding a few drops of essential oils as well. A good soak for about 30 minutes will ensure that toxins will be drawn out from your body and that all your muscles will feel completely relaxed.

Vinegar Bath
A vinegar detox bath is ideal when the acid levels in your body are too high because it helps to restore the acid-alkaline balance. Add a cup or two of pure apple cider vinegar to your bath and soak for around 30 minutes. This is also great for relieving the symptoms of arthritis, gout, bursitis and other inflammatory ailments.

Ginger Bath
Mix two tablespoons of powdered ginger in warm water first, then add it to a tub of hot water. Once again, soak for no longer than 30 minutes. If you prefer to use fresh ginger, then just grate up about 1/4 cup worth, wrap it in a cheese cloth and add it to your bath. The ginger will open up your pores and help you to sweat the toxins our of your body.

Milk Bath
Mix together two cups of dry milk powder, one cup of cornstarch and a few of drops of an essential oil of your choice. Take 1/2 cup of this mixture and add it to your bath while it is filling.

One Final Tip
Try to have the bath water as hot as you can stand it (without burning yourself, of course) because the hotter the water, the more effective the detoxification process. It is the hot water that draws the toxins from within the body to the surface of the skin, enabling the added ingredients to cleanse more efficiently.

These are just a small sample of the best detox bath recipes that are available to you. Interested in finding out more? Then visit http://www.body-detox.info/

Essential Oils

Blending Essential Oils
By Caren Young

Essential oils have been with us since the early Egyptians. From the earliest recorded texts, fragrant oils and potions have adorned the wealthy and non-wealthy alike. Today, essential oils have enjoyed a boom and we find them in such places as doctor's offices and on grocery store shelves. Blending your own essential oils takes a bit of practice, but with the following information you should be well on your way to creating customized blends.

The first step is to determine the overall scent you want to create. Do you want your scent to be citrusy or woodsy? Your choice of scent family will determine the next step. The second step is to determine the top, middle, and bottom notes of your blend.

Essential oils are divided into top, middle, and bottom notes. Every good fragrance will have a combination of all three notes.

Bottom Notes: Bottom notes provide the foundation for your blend and anchors them to the other two notes. They are also known as earthy or woody notes. Bottom notes are the last to develop in the blend and stay the longest on the skin. Common bottom notes are: myrrh, pine, and cedarwood.

Middle Notes: Middle notes are the most dominant of your blend. Middle notes tend to last longer than top notes and have to work well with both top and bottom notes. Common middle notes are clary sage, cinnamon, lavender.

Top Notes: Top notes are the first thing you smell when creating a custom blend. These smells are usually sharper than middle or bottom notes and fade fairly quickly. Common top notes are peppermint, lemon and orange.

Let's use an example: You would like to create a room spray. You want it to be citrusy and a little woody. So, you would begin with a base note. Since, we want a bit of woodiness in the blend, we'll add cedarwood. Next, we need a bridge or middle note. Let's go with a Bergamot. It's heavier than other citrus scents, but it is still citrusy. Our final note will be a bright citrus, so we'll add orange. So, our final blend is:

Orange
Bergamot
Cedarwood

Try out a few combinations yourself and have fun!
