Chapter 1 BATH MILK EQUIPMENT
Glass or plastic mixing bowl
Wooden or plastic mixing spoon
Jar with airtight lid like a canning jar or old jam jar
10’’ (25 cm) square piece of cheesecloth or a handkerchief or knee length stocking
5’’ (12.5 cm) long ribbon or piece of string
*****
Chapter 2 BATH MILK INGREDIENTS
3 cups powdered whole milk like cow or goat or buttermilk
½ cup healing powders like powdered oatmeal or almond powder or cornstarch
½ cup healing salts like Epsom salts or sea salt or baking soda
½ cup dry, ground healing herbs like lavender flowers or rose petals
50 drops (2.5 ml or ½ teaspoon) of healing essential oils like lavender, Roman
chamomile or geranium
1 teaspoon vitamin E oil (optional natural preservative)
*****
Chapter 3 BATH MILK INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the healing salts in the mixing bowl and add the essential oils drop by drop as you stir
with the mixing spoon until you get your required scent. The salts act as a carrier ingredient
which will help distribute the fragrant essential oils evenly in the bath milk.
2. Add the other dry ingredients (powdered milk, healing powders and herbs) together with the
vitamin E oil (if using) and mix thoroughly.
3. Add a few more drops of the essential oils to the mixture as you mix until you are satisfied
with the strength of the scent.
4. Spoon the mixture into the jar and store it in a cool, dark place.
5. When ready to use, spoon one cup full of the mixture onto the center of a square piece of
cheesecloth (or handkerchief). Gather the 4 corners of the cheesecloth and tie them together with
a ribbon to create a ball.
6. Tie the cheesecloth ball to the bathroom faucet so that warm water can run through it into the
tub and help it release the nutrients in the milk bath ingredients. Once the tub fills, squeeze the
cheesecloth ball to release more skin beneficial nutrients into the bath water. Untie the ball and
drop it into the water so that it can continue releasing more nutrients as you bathe.
If using a knee length stocking, make a knot on its leg after spooning in one cup full of the
organic bath milk. Hang the stocking over the faucet while the tub is filling and drop it into the
water once the tub fills so that it can continue releasing its healing nutrients.

the herb.

Calendula flowers are used to manage dry, sensitive, mature, prematurely aging and normal skin
types.
Do not use calendula if you are allergic to it, allergic to daisy or aster family plants like ragweed
and chrysanthemums, if pregnant or breastfeeding or trying to conceive. Avoid calendula
preparations if you are taking sedatives, high blood pressure and diabetes medications.
***
Rose
Rose petals have astringent properties which help regulate the skin’s oil production and thus are
useful for managing oily and acne prone skin. They are also used for sensitive and dry skin.
Rose petals also have anti-inflammatory properties and thus they are useful for managing skin
conditions like eczema.
***
Rosemary Leaves

Do not use/ avoid rosemary if you are allergic to it, are breastfeeding or pregnant, are under 18
years old, have high blood pressure, peptic ulcers, ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. Do not

(plavix) or aspirin as it may cause bleeding, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors
such as captopril and lisinopril for high blood pressure, diuretics such as furosemide (lasix) and
hydrochlorothiazide also used for high blood pressure treatment and medicines for diabetes
medications as it may alter the blood sugar levels and lithium.*****
Chapter 7 SKIN FOOD
Choose the food items you will use for your natural skincare products depending on their
properties and the condition you want the product to manage.
Almond Powder
Almond powder, which is also known as almond meal, contains essential fatty acids and
vitamins which nourish and soften the skin.
It is also useful for unclogging skin pores since it absorbs excess oil from the skin. Almond
powder is also a natural exfoliant which gets rid of the dead cells on the skin’s surface.
Epsom Salts
When Epsom salts (magnesium sulphate) are dissolved in water, the body absorbs their
magnesium. This magnesium is used to make serotonin which imparts a sense of emotional well-
being.
***
Milk
Milk contains lactic acid which is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that gently sloughs away the
dead cells on the surface of the skin to reveal more youthful appearing skin. Milk also hydrates
the skin.
