Herb Mix Recipes:

Every year my recipes are different but they are always based on what I think are the three things people want out of a bath; to heal, to revitalize or to relax.

As a result I mix my herbs accordingly. I always add a few extra ingredients aside from herbs to each bag. I add rolled oats (coarsely ground in the blender first) for moisturizing and soothing, epsom salts for muscle relaxation and celtic sea salt (as opposed to table salt) for its healing properties. Powdered milk or citrus peel can also be added. I have listed this year’s recipes below and a listing of other potential ingredients at the side.

Visit the site for directions and recipes for making herbal bath teas (really easy to do, cheap to make and lovely to use). I also have a bunch of ideas here:

  1. Homemade Herbal Sleep Pouches
  2. Homemade Herbal Bath Bag Recipes
  3. Homemade Shower Spa Bags
  4. Homemade Rose Dusting Powder Recipe
  5. Homemade Potpourri

Tip: You can use these to fill small spa gift baskets.

Careful: Make sure to use herbs, plants and flowers that are pesticide free. You’ll also find more bath & beauty recipes in the Beauty & Health category.
