Sometimes moisture in the air can cause that too happen. It should still work the same when added to bath water though

I mix the Epsom salts and soda.
Thanks Wanda

I think using a filter for your water is ideal to filter out chlorine.

I’ve never seen a study saying that it increases estrogen. If you are worried about it, you can use a different oil.
