You can view the instructions for this post as the 2nd tutorial in the video! Good to know: you can easily watch the video without sound and it’s less than 7 minutes long!

You’ll need:

• 1 cup bath salts – I used 1/2 cup Epsom salt and 1/2 cup pink Himalayan salt
• 1/2 tbsp. liquid Bubble bath – like this

• Soap sprinkles (optional) – Get them here or hop over to the DIY version

To help you find the ingredients you need for this tutorial I’ve added links in this post to places you can find them online.

But feel free to Google the ingredients to find your own or buy them from local vendors in your area!

How to make Bubble Bath Salts

1. Combine your bath salts in a bowl. I used different types of salt, but you can stick to your favorite kind. Epsom salt is always a great choice, but coarse sea salt and dead sea salt would work too!
2. I added some pink Himalayan salt for a pop of color. You can also color some of your salt with food or soap coloring. Add a drop of coloring, mix well and let the salts absorb the color for a few minutes.
3. Add 1/2 tablespoon of bubble bath to your bath salts. Mix well until all of the salt is evenly coated with the bubble bath mixture.
4. Scoop the bubble bath salts in a pretty container. I added some pretty heart shaped bath confetti soap sprinkles for extra cuteness. I had some left over from my DIY Surprise Bath Bomb tutorial and they were perfect to add a festive touch.
5. Don’t own bath confetti and don’t feel like buying them? You can also make your own cute DIY soap sprinkles!
6. All that’s left to do is package them, label them and give to someone special.

How To Use Bubble Bath Salts

When you’re ready to use, let the water running to draw a bath. Scatter some of the bath salts close to the running water to activate the bubbles. Results may vary as your bubble bath mixture might be a different type or brand.
