sugar. Add essential oils. 10 drops of peppermint per ounce of oil
used, 3 drops of rosemary per ounce of oil used, 1 drop of tea tree

Oatmeal-Salt Bath
Recipe
The oatmeal makes the water look murky, but it feels wonderful.

1/4 cup baking soda
10 drops sandalwood essential oil
7-8 drops ylang ylang essential oil
7-8 drops tangerine essential oil
Instructions:
Combine all dry ingredients in a food processor and pulse. To keep
from getting the essential/fragrance oils in my food processor, I
transfer approx. 1/2 cup or so of the dry ingredients to a zip lock
bag. Add the oils to the bag, seal it, and shake well to incorporate
the oils into the dry ingredients and break up any clumps. Once it
is well mixed, add the rest of the dry ingredient mixture to the bag
and shake some more until it is well mixed. Store in an air tight
container. (Could leave in the sealed bag if you plan on using it in
the near future.)
Use approx. 1/4 - 2/3 cup per bath. |
