[glow=black,2,600]Bath Bags
Start by mixing together some raw oatmeal, and put about three or four handfuls of that into a bowl. And then add some plain sea salt. This is the same stuff you put in your water softener. Again, use about two or three handfuls. Both of these agents will really soften the water and soften your skin. Add to that about a handful of rosebuds. You can also add about a handful of lavender, because this is really nice in helping you relax.
Now, mix this all together, and then the final step is taking one of your favorite essential oils and adding about ten drops to the mixture. Then place a couple scoopfuls inside a little muslin bag which you can pick up at a co-op or craft store. Fill with about a half to a full cup, then tie it up. Drop this into a hot bath and let it dissolve away and really soften the water. It will be a great experience.

NOTE: You can change the rose petals to something else if you don't care for the strong smell of rose or if you just want something different. Get creative with this and try different scent combinations. [/glow]
