DIY – Epsom Salt Glow Mask

In case you hadn’t noticed Epsom Salts are the new “Coconut Oil” of the health world. Technically of course they are not new. Check out some of our older posts on Things to do with Epsom Salts. Meantime treat your face to a glowing Epsom Salt Facial with these basic but effective salt and honey scrub.

Epsom salts and Magnesium salts are not quite the same things. Epsom Salts Is Magnesium Sulphate and Magnesium flakes are Magnesium Chloride. So what does that mean for you, Epsom salt is harder to absorb into the body than a straight magnesium flake. But either is going to do wonders for your body and once you go Epsom salt or Magnesium you never go back. Epsom salt/Magnesium is great for the body and mind. Epsom salt helps relax muscles and relieve pain in the body and can promote sleep. Epsom salt/Magnesium helps stabilize your mood and relieve stress, anxiety, and depression, something we all need help with.

If you love simple handmade gifts that still feel festive and special, this DIY Christmas Cherry Body Scrub from CraftBits is such a fun little project. It is bright, pretty, and has that sweet cherry scent that makes it feel perfect for Christmas gifting.

What I like about this tutorial is how easy it is to pull together. The scrub uses granulated sugar, sweet almond oil or another carrier oil, red cherry fragrance oil, and a touch of mica powder for color, so it feels like one of those projects you can make quickly but still package up beautifully.

It is the kind of bath and body recipe that works really well for teacher gifts, stocking stuffers, hostess gifts, or just a little festive treat for yourself. The pretty pink-red color and cherry fragrance give it a cheerful Christmas feel without needing anything too complicated.

The tutorial itself is wonderfully straightforward too. You simply combine the ingredients well and store the finished scrub in an airtight container, which makes this a lovely beginner-friendly project for holiday crafting.

If you are looking for a quick Christmas body scrub recipe that feels handmade, giftable, and easy to recreate, this one is a sweet little pick.
