posted in Skin & Body Tips on 9/22/2016

BATH MELTS are fabulous little bath bombs of moisturizer that melt into the water + hydrate your skin. I decided to whip up a batch of bath melts with natural oils + butters to soothe + soften my skin during my evening soak.

Milk + honey are all-natural ingredients that are great for skin care.
Milk baths contain lactic acid which:(1) Gently exfoliates away dead skin cells.(2) Softens + smooths rough patches.(3) Accelerates skin cell renewal.(4) Tones + tightens the skin.

Honey is a natural humectant that:(1) Keeps moisture locked inside.(2) Supports the skin’s ability to rejuvenate(3) Helps promote healing

Milk + honey bath melts gently hydrate dry, irritated skin with all-natural ingredients:•rich mango butter•sweet almond oil•organic powdered milk•luxurious honey

DIRECTIONS| Melt the mango butter, almond oil + honey together in glass bowl; place into small saucepan filled with boiling water. Do not get water in the mix.
Stir in 1 cup of powdered milk. The mixture will be slightly crumbly.

Measure 2 tablespoons of mix + roll into tight balls.
Place bath melts onto wax or parchment paper to cool.
Roll bath melts in ½ cup powdered milk for a decorative finish.

(1) Fill the tub 1-2 inches with hot water, place 1-2 bath melts in + allow to melt. Crumble with hands to speed up the process.(2) Continue filling tub with water of your desired temperature then soak for 20-30 minutes.(3) When exiting the tub be careful; surfaces can be slippery!
