New Year’s Baby Bath (makes 4 oz, enough for 2 baths)
This gentle bath will leave baby’s skin soft and silky. Milk is rich in fat and lactic acid, and both help soften and hydrate skin. Prepare an extra portion of this for yourself because people of all ages can benefit from this rich, relaxing natural bath. You may want to package this in an envelope to give as gifts or a pretty bottle with a cork.

- 1/4 Cup Whole Dry Buttermilk
- 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1 drop Orange Oil ( optional )
Mix together all the ingredients and pour into a clean container or resealable plastic bag.

Claudia’s Milk Bath
- 1 Cup Powdered Milk .
- 5 Cups Oatmeal
- 1 Cup Baking Soda
- 2 Tablespoons Cream of Tartar
- 4 Tablespoons Corn Starch
- Handcrafted Soap
In a food processor, grind chunked handcrafted soap and oatmeal until grainy. Add powdered milk, baking soda, cream of tartar and corn starch. Scent with fragrance / essential oils as desired, process until it’s powdery.
It really is a nice product when you package it attractively, feels wonderful in the bath and if you scent it heavily (which I seem to do to everything ) the whole bathroom smells heavenly all day.
