I’m a bath loving girl. I love taking baths at night to help me unwind from my day. I always grab a book and my favorite beverage so I can just relax before bed. I usually pick from some fun smelling bubble bath or a sea salt soak. Recently I’ve been curious about the milk baths. So I decided to give it a go. And I’m in love. You’ve got to try out this DIY Milk Bath!!
Milk baths can help relieve tension, de-stress from your day, help break up the dead skin cells, moisturize the skin, soothe achy muscles.
Recipe:
2 cups of Powdered Milk
1 cup of Epsom Salt
1 cup of Sea Salt
Mix all ingredients together thoroughly in a medium sized mixing bowl. Transfer to an air tight container (I used a mason jar).
When you’re ready to take your bath, pour about a cup of the dry mixture into warm running water. You can add 1-2 tablespoons of honey to your milk bath to gain extra moisture to your skin! Add a few drops of lavender, rose or eucalyptus oil to gain even more benefits from your milk bath (plus the nice smells these oils give off!)
Enjoy your milk bath!!
I love milk baths, especially since my daughter’s skin gets so scaly during the winter. Never thought of adding some honey. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
A milk bath sounds really nice!
I’ll have to give this a try . . . . . a warm bubble bath is great on a really cold day, but my skin always feels so dry afterwards. This might be just what I’ve been looking for!
Oh, I’m definitely trying this! Thanks for sharing! #TIUT
This sounds divine. If only I could keep my kids out of the bathroom! Oh well will have to carve out some time to try this out.
I will have to try this. I bet is is great in the dry winter weather to use. I hope that you will join us at Family Joy Blog Link Up Party. Check us out
I love my epsom baths! Thanks for sharing your creative one at Family Joy Blog linkup.
Thanks for your recipe. My husband and I were talking about Cleopatra the other day … I thought that she was known for taking milk baths (but didn’t know for sure) so I was wondering how to do it. The powdered milk means I can keep it longer, since milk kind of goes to waste in our house. 🙂
Thanks for the recipe! Pinning to try!
I have not tried this before. The benefits sound great!
Thanks for sharing at Funtastic Friday!
That looks so nice and relaxing. I miss baths where toddlers don’t strip themselves naked and jump ontop of me!

Taking a milk bath sounds like a wonderful way to rewind after a long week. Thanks for sharing your recipe on Merry Monday.
