Oatmeal and milk are well known for their skin soothing and nourishing qualities.  It only takes a few minutes to make an oatmeal milk bath.  You can even ‘dress it up’ into an aromatherapy bath!

Instructions

You will need

·       3/4 cup uncooked oatmeal

·       Blender

·       Mixing bowl

·       3 cups powdered milk

·       1/4 cup sea salt or Epsom salts

·       Several drops of your favorite essential oil or blend. (optional) examples: lavender, peppermint, rosemary

Using the blender - pulverize oatmeal into a fine powder. Or you can use baby oatmeal—just be certain it contains only oatmeal, and no fillers.

Transfer the powdered oatmeal to a mixing bowl and stir in the powdered milk and sea salt or Epsom salts.

If you want an aromatherapy experience with your bath add the essential oils to the oatmeal/milk/salts mixture

Mix until the oils are thoroughly incorporated with the other ingredients.

Store your oatmeal milk bath in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Add about ¼ cup to running bath water and relax!!
