Milk and Oatmeal Bath Tea - Bath blend of the month


It is that time of year where wind, dry heat and other aspects of the season change begin to effect the skin.  So I thought a quick and easy bath tub tea might be the way to go.  This tea uses milk to sooth and soften skin along with  oatmeal to soothe dryness and itchiness. With this recipe you fill cloth bags or coffee filters  and then allow the bag to steep in the bath water before you slide in to enjoy your bath.

If you want some extra herb properties in this bath tea, choose to add 1 Tablespoon of any of these herbs to each bag.


Lavender – is balancing will calm or rejuvenate depending on your need 
Lemon Balm – an infusion strained into the bath make for happy thoughts

Roman Chamomile – is calming and relaxing

Bergamot - stimulates

Rosemary – lightly astringent; stimulates rejuvenates and promotes elimination of waste

Sage – purifying, restores skin tone

Rose – deeply healing

Geranium – deeply healing



Milk & Oatmeal Bath Tea 

1 ½ cups regular oats, not quick

1 cup powdered milk


Blend the ingredients together in a plastic bowl, then fill the muslin bags.  Add 1 Tablespoon of herbs (if desired) to each bag shaking to combine.  This recipe will make up to 8 bags.



To Use: Place filled bag under the tap while bath is filling, then slide into the water.  Use the bag as a scrubby to get even more herbal energy!
