Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup baking soda
- 2 tbs. citric acid or absorbic
acid (powdered vitamin C)
- 1 tbs. borax powder (for softening)
(20 Mule Team)
- 2 tbs. powdered sugar (for
binding)
- 2 tbs. sweet almond oil (this
oil is absorbed into the skin easily)
- 1 tsp. Vitamin E oil (preservative)
- 1/4 tsp. fragrance or essential
oil (you can use your favorite perfume)
Combine dry ingredients in
a bowl and stir until well blended. Drizzle in almond oil and
stir until mixture is moistened. Add Vitamin E oil and fragrance
and stir until well mixed.**** Take teaspoon size globs of mixture
and form into ball shapes with fingers. The mixture will be VERY
crumbly and fragile, so do the best you can. Place the balls
on a sheet of wax paper and leave alone for 2-3 hours. Reshape
balls. Let the balls air dry and harden for 10 days. Store balls
in a closed container to protect from moisture. To use, plop
a ball into your bathtub in warm water. **** I put all the ingredients
in a mason jar, put the lid on and shake until mixed. |
