Soothing Milk Bath Powder

A really great way to end the day!

Ingredients:

1 cup goat's milk powder
1/2 cup baking soda
1/2 cup epsom salts or fine sea salts
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon perfume fragrance or essential oil

Directions:

Place all ingredients in a large bowl and mix around until fragrance is incorporated. Place in a wide mouth jar or plastic bag tied with a ribbon on top. Use 1/2 to 3/4 cup per bath.

Tips

Layer your bath powders with dried flowers such as lavender or rose buds. Start with a layer of powder in the bottom of your jar, add a layer of flowers, and alternate between flowers and milk powder until the jar is full.

Small sea shells work well for scoops.

Has anyone tried this recipe? I am looking for a replacement for the body shop version as it is no longer available. Does the milk bath in this recipe make bubbles?

I use the body shop milk bath for my 2 year old son who has eczema.

This recipe does not contain any soap products in it so it should not bubble.
