Cleopatra Buttermilk Bath Recipe

Milk baths have been used for thousands of years to soften and nourish the skin. The lactose in milk helps to gently exfoliate without over drying. This recipe is great for all skin types including sensitive skin. Light some candles and allow yourself to be pampered in this luxurious bath!
Organic Ingredients: Oatmeal, Buttermilk, Lavender, Calendula Petals, & Essential Oils of Orange, Geranium & Rose
It’s always best to use organic ingredients if you can.
1 Cup Quick Oats or Instant Oatmeal
1/4 Cup Buttermilk Powder (or Powdered Cow’s Milk or Goat’s Milk)
1-3 tsp Dried lavender, rose, camomile, and/or calendula flowers
2-4 drops rose essential oil
2-4 drops orange essential oil
2-4 drops geranium essential oil
Add 1/2 cup to bath & enjoy!
Makes one 4oz Mason Jar, that will contain 2 bath servings

Also great made into a paste and used as a facial scrub, or mixed with a little water and applied as a mask for 10-15 minutes.
If you don’t like having all the oatmeal and flower petals lose in your bath you can buy small muslin bags at most grocery or health food stores.

This recipe also makes an awesome homemade gift. I love filling Mason jars with fun recipes like this and decorating them for the holidays or birthday gifts.
Enjoy!
In love and service,
