How to Make a Rose and Oatmeal Bath Mix

Rose and oatmeal are the perfect bath combination. Oatmeal is soothing to the skin and rose is uplifting. Rose essential oil is used for its anti-inflammatory and rejuvenating qualities.

• 5 cups of oats
• Essential oil of rose
• Rose petals (fresh)(optional)

1. Place the oats in the blender. Blend until the oats become finely ground.
2. Put the oats into the item of choice for containing the oats. Tie together with a ribbon or string.
3. Attach the ribbon or string to the tap (faucet) as close under the spigot as possible. Allow warm water to run into the bath, moving through the oat bag.
4. Add 2 - 3 drops of the rose oil direct to the bathwater and swirl around.
5. Add the rose petals.
6. Enjoy a luxurious bath.

• Blender
• Cheesecloth, coffee paper filter, sachet bag etc. - any suitable item to hold the oats mixture
• Ribbon or string; needs to be long enough to hang from tap (faucet)
