Oatmeal is very good for the skin.

Ingredients
  • 1 cup oatmeal (not instant)
  • 1/2 cup rosemary leaves (or substitute lavender, thyme, lemon verbena or your favorite herb)
  • 1/4 cup rose petals

Directions
  1. Mix the ingredients together and for each sachet, place a few tablespoons in the center of a six inch square of lace, cheesecloth or muslin. You can also use muslin tea bags that better kitchen stores carry, or make your own using a "firmly woven" muslin/cheesecloth fabric - you don't want the contents of the bag getting down the drain. If you're using a square of fabric - bring the four corners together and tie in the middle with a washable ribbon, making sure that the mixture is secure in your bath. Each bag can be used several times before it needs refilling. Oatmeal is very good for the skin but by itself is not particularly attractive which is why you should use rose petals. The rose petals compliment the oatmeal and add a litle more fragrance to the mix. For a humorous present for friends with a hot tub, sew a large bag from cheesecloth or muslin, fill it with a mixture of herbs and oatmeal (keeping the same proportions as in the recipe) Staple the bag to a string. Write the message "tea for two" on a piece of paper and attach it to the other end of the string. The "tea" back can be used several times.

I'm doing this for sure... :)


I have rosess in my garden and oatmeal that I can't eat anymore (celiac desseas). I'm going to try this. It seems to be perfect for the late night baths when it's cold out side.
