What’s in the Happy Joy Foot Bath?
Carrier Oil
You need a carrier oil to soften the skin and act as a carrier for putting oil in water. Some examples of carrier oils include fractionated coconut oil, almond oil, and jojoba oil, any of which will work!
Sea Salt
Sea salt is needed in this recipe to add nutrients into the foot bath! It also dissolves into the water so it can be evenly distributed for the whole foot.
Epsom Salt
Epsom salt is used in a wide variety of bath recipes. It has soothing properties that can allow your feet to relax.
Happy Joy Essential Oil Blend
Happy Joy Essential Oil Blend is a combination of Geranium, Grapefruit, Orange, and Ylang-Ylang essential oils. Its uplifting properties will be sure to put you in a good mood while cleansing your feet!
Foot Basin/Bath
A foot basin or bath is needed for the recipe to be put to use! Having one of these can come in handy for future foot bath/soak recipes that may come out 😉
