43 Things You Should Never Buy

Fancy bath salts

Bath products are big, big business. Here’s a fun fact about most bath salts: They’re actually Epsom salt.

Yes, plain old Epsom salt, the kind the coach used to recommend after a vigorous practice. Dressed up with fragrance and color and placed in frou-frou jars tied with decorative ribbons, they don’t provide any more benefits than the unadorned sodium crystals. Want a bath-time “experience” at a fraction of the cost? Go on Pinterest and look for DIY bath salts.

Or use this recipe from the Epsom Salt Council: Mix 2 cups of Epsom salt with a few drops of fragrance. Add half a teaspoon of glycerin and a few drops of food coloring, if desired. Mix thoroughly, then store in an airtight container. Rubber duckies are optional.
