Take two spoonfuls of Epsom Salt into a bowl.

Next, put in one spoonful of coconut oil.

Now, mix them together!

The consistency should look like the image below.

If you want scent, add your essential oils or tea. I made one batch with oil and the other with sweet orange tea. Add any scent you like!

Pat down the mixture into your mold. If you don't have a silicone mold, you can put it in a Tupperware and cut it into bars. Be creative with what you have!

Put your mold in the fridge or freezer for about 10 min, or until they are firm to the touch.
