Don’t have a tub? Make yourself innovative bath bouquet garnies. These bundles of herbs, usually tied together with string and used to prepare soups, stocks and various stews, can actually be made for your tap faucet too. Take a small muslin cloth, surgical bandage or cheesecloth and put 1 tsp of starch, milk powder, rose petals, oatmeal or rice powder each and add a few drops of lavender oil in it. Tie the pouch with a rubber band. Make 15- 20 pouches, store them in a jar and let it sit on your bathroom shelf. The what? Take one out each time you have your bucket and tap routine! Tie it either to the tap faucet or rub it all over your body in gentle circular movements. The starch will work as a natural tightener as the rose petals tone and lend your body a natural fragrance. The oatmeal will gently exfoliate, even as milk does what it does best- moisturize.
