This
bath will help rejuvenate your dry skin and give you a new vigor of the first
blossoming of Spring!
1
1/2 cup powdered milk
1/2 cup Epsom salt
1/8 cup baking soda
2 Tbls. cornstarch
1/2 cup Epsom salt
1/8 cup baking soda
2 Tbls. cornstarch
Spring
Wonder Bath:
- 1/2 cup basic starter
- 1/2 cup oatmeal
- 1/4 cup lavender
Instructions:
Create the base or starter blend. Use 1/2 cup of starter blended with oatmeal and lavender. Place in a glass jar and shake to blend.
Make
drawstring pouches out of cheesecloth, organza or muslin, enough to hold
anywhere from 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of the herbal mix. Tie about 1/2 cup of the blend into a bag and tie tightly
shut so the loose ingredients won’t float out. After use, the contents can be
emptied, the pouches rinsed out, washed, then refilled and reused.
To
Use:
Hanging method: Two
ways these can be enjoyed, either hang a sachet on the tap while the hot water is
running, making sure the water is running through it. Once the tub is filled,
let them float around.
Infusion
Method: Boil a quart of water, turn off heat, add pouch, cover, then steep
(for at least 20 minutes for best results). Add the piping hot infusion (and
the bag) to a full tub, being careful while pouring to avoid burning yourself.
Note: Do not steep in an aluminum pot.
