- 2Blend your salts: If using multiple salt types, combine them in a separate bowl first for even distribution.
- 3Add salt to oils: Pour the salt blend into the oils and stir well. The mixture should be like wet sand.

- β’ Keep water out of the jar - salt can dissolve and grow bacteria
- β’ Store in a cool, dry place away from bathroom humidity
- β’ Use a wooden spoon to scoop - metal can react with salt
