    Hi, how can I dye bath salts? I would like to make different colours of salts. I have a few dyes but not sure how to use them on the salts. Thank you in advance.

    I don’t think you can “use them” on crystalline salts if that is what you mean. I don’t know for sure, but I suspect they get their colours from crystallising in a dyed solution.

    Thank you. I have found on internet some procedures using liquid dyes and wondering if it is only a method for homemade coloured salt or there is a similar manufacturing procedure.

    I agree with this approach.
