Prepare your own oat bags for the bath

Ingredients

We will prepare two bags of oatmeal for the bath, and for that we will need the following ingredients:

• 2 cups of oats
• Two fabric pouches. They can be, for example, muslin, gauze or organza. Ordinary screens, which usually come as a gift wrap, can also do. It is also important to separate a little string to tie the arrangement.
• Half grated soap. Choose the one you prefer, even one that is already made of oatmeal is a good option. However, we recommend another that will be ideal: rosehip soap. It can be found in natural food stores or perfumeries. Only use half a tablet.

• Essential oil. Choose what suits you best. For this recipe we will also use a rosehip.

How to prepare the oat soap bags?

• First , choose the fabric. It should be medium in size, which fits at least in the palm of your hand. Imagine that it will be used as a soap on the skin, so the size must be adequate. You also need to remember that it should be big enough to hold a cup of oatmeal.
• After choosing the fabric, get a bowl and prepare the therapeutic mixture that will be inside the bags.

To prepare the mixture for the oat soap

• Add two cups of oats. Afterwards, grate the half bar of soap with a grater and drop the small pieces of soap onto the oats. Half a bar will do.

• Then add ten drops of the chosen essential oil as well. However, it needs to be of a balanced odor and not dissimilar to the smell of soap.
• We can add (optional) dried herbs at this point in the process, such as lavender, orange leaves or rosemary. Add what you prefer, but these plants should contain therapeutic actions, good for the skin.
• At this stage, it will be almost ready. All that remains is to divide the content and fill two small bags with it.
• Tie them tightly with your chosen ribbon. Remember that after each use it is necessary to place them in the sun and in a place where the air circulates so that they dry correctly. Obviously its use is limited.
• When you notice that it no longer smells, or that the oats have almost become a flour, it is time to prepare new bags.
• After using them you will notice how your skin will look even more beautiful.
