There's nothing better after a long day than a hot bath. But instead of reaching for the bubbles, try a new therapy that will not only relax the mind and body, but also work as a detox, by drawing out nasty toxins.

This simple do-it-yourself Lemon-Lavender Bath Detox with Epsom salt takes just seconds to mix, using inexpensive ingredients you may already have on hand.

I made this bath detox with lemon and lavender essential oils because it's a soothing & replenishing combination that reminds me of my time in the South of France. Just add a cup of this bath detox to your next warm bath and soak all your cares away!

Lemon-Lavender Bath Detox Recipe

Items Needed for Bath Detox:

(makes enough for 1 bath, may be doubled or tripled)

  • 1 cup Epsom salt
  • 1/4 cup baking soda
  • 5 drops lemon essential oil
  • 5 drops lavender essential oil
  • Jar with lid

How to Make Epsom Salt Bath Detox:

1. In a small jar (I purchased my jar from the $1 spot at Target, but a mason jar would also work), stir together Epsom salt and baking soda. Add 5 drops of each lemon and lavender essential oils. Stir.

2. Keep in the jar for up to 3 months (great for gift giving!) or add the full amount to warm bath water and soak for at least 20 minutes.

3. Once out of the bath, drink a large glass of water. For maximum benefits, take a bath detox with Epsom salt at least twice a week.

    Can I use lemon juice instead of the essential oil? Lemon or what other essential oils would go best with Lavender. What two essential oils go best with each other?
    Sorry lots of questions!!
