Product Review – Natrasorb
This product is AMAZING! It is a water soluble natural starch which does it all! It was formulated to allow you to load your bath products with fragrance, essential oil, or nutritive oils! Natrasorb is a very fluffy powder that can be used in bath salts, bath fizzies, cocoa butter melts, and many other finished products!
We used Natrasorb while doing our Mother’s Day Bath Melts blog. It was added to the essential oil, which was then added to the sea salts to form the mixture for the top of the bath melt. Man! Did it enhance the Grapefruit Essential Oil! The scent became stronger and much more fragrant, as opposed to on its own. Even after we added the Cocoa Butter to the melt, the refreshing scent of grapefruit was still alive and kicking! We would definitely recommend this product for your bath needs, whether they be bath melts, fizzy bath powders, or any other bath time design.
