Aromatic Bath Oils

From Pam Walker, NOW Brand Manager, Canada

This recipe would make a nice gift for birthdays, Mother's Day, or any occasion. Choose from NOW's selection of essential oils to create a wonderful fragrance.

Ingredients

1/4 cup baking soda

2 Tablespoons NOW Ascorbic Acid Powder

1 Tablespoon borax powder, to soften

2 Tablespoons powdered sugar, to bind

2 Tablespoons NOW Sweet Almond Oil

1 teaspoon vitamin E oil

NOW Vitamin E Oil

1/4 teaspoon NOW essential oil

Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper. Combine all dry ingredients in glass jar. Drizzle in almond oil and stir until mixture is moistened. Add vitamin E oil, place lid on jar, and shake until all ingredients are well combined. Mixture will be very crumbly.

Press mixture into mini muffin tin or scoop into balls with a meatball shaper. Place shaped forms onto waxed paper and allow to set for at least 3 hours. Reshape if necessary, then leave to air dry and harden, about 10 days.

Drop one or two bath oil cakes into a warm bath and relax as they dissolve and release the fragrance of your favorite essential oil.
