The Epsom salts in this mixture are very helpful at relaxing your body, reducing muscle pain, and detoxing. But the addition of tangerine essential oil makes these salts even better! Tangerine essential oils have sedative properties, helping to calm your body and reduce mental stress. The oils also are anitspasmodic, which helps to reduce muscle cramps. All together, this creates a very relaxing and luxurious bath experience!

While you could just mix up these tangerine bath salts for yourself, why not give them as a gift, too? Everyone appreciates the promise of a nice bath, so a pretty jar of these bath salts would make a lovely gift for any birthday or holiday! Consider adding a ribbon and a label or tag with usage instructions for some nice finishing touches.
