Bath oil ( basic recipe )
80 ml of botanical oil (jojoba, almond, peanut oil or other)
10 ml of essential oil (one or mixed)
10 ml of lecithin (herbal emulgent)
Put all into a dark glass bottle and mix thoroughly (might be left for a few days).
You will need 10 ml of oil for a full bath (35-38 Celsius degrees)
With sensitive skin use less oil.
Lecithin will help the oil dissolve in water instead of floating on the surface. It will also protect the skin from drying.
If we haven’t got any lecithin we can as well use plain bath foam which should be mixed with the carrier and essential oil before putting into the bath.
