Who doesn't love a warm, cosy milk bath from time to time, especially during the chilly winter months!
Milk Baths meet so many needs - they soothe the soul, nourish the skin and are a wonderful time out from our busy lives. We love sprinkling flower petals into the bath, for a beautiful, aromatic touch.
No bath tub? No problem! Make yourself a relaxing foot bath in a small tub and your feet and relaxed mind will thank you for days!
Check out our Packaging Range for jars, tubs, pouches and bags for your Bath Milks. We recommend using heat sealable Tea Bags if you don't like "bits" of dried botanicals sticking to your body when you step out of the bath.
Storage Tip: Store your bath milks in a dry, airtight container, away from any moisture or bathroom steam.
The method is the same for all - and it's easy!
- Set out ingredients and measuring cups
- If using Natrasorb Bath, mix in the fragrance or essential oils until the mixture resembles bread crumbs - you now have dry fragrance
- Combine with the milk powders (and oats, if using)
- Then add everything else and combine well!
- Voila! Store in airtight containers ready for use or use straight away.
TIP: If you want to combine mixing and storage containers, measure ingredients into a strong zip lock plastic bag and after mixing the ingredients in there you can store it ready for use.
If you dont grow your own herbs, you can use herbal tea mixes and even pre-made tea bags to add to your mixture.
