I have so many great natural beauty tips and recipes to share, that I decided to make this a weekly thing. Thus, I am announcing Tuesday’s Tips. Every Tuesday, I will bring you a new natural beauty tip or recipe.
The Ultimate Relaxing Bath
Who doesn’t love a great bath? And a relaxing bath at that. The best temperature for your relaxing bath should be 100 degrees Fahrenheit. This is the temperature that has been shown to relax and un-tighten the muscles. This is also the temperature at which your brain stimulates calming chemicals. And of course, adding natural essential oils, such as lavender or patchouli will aid in the relaxation process.
Before you get into the bath, gently exfoliate so your skin can more quickly reap the benefits of the calming essential oils. Make sure your turn the lights down low, and light a calming scented soy candle. Enjoy your relaxing bath, but don’t stay in the tub for more than 20 or 30 minutes, as you may just get too relaxed and drift off to sleep… which you do not want to do in the tub. After about 20 minutes, I like to get out of the tub, slather on some moisturizing lotion, slip into some comfy jammies and get right into bed.
Enjoy!
a candle lit bath is best!
it not only relaxes you, but also
releaves stress. its perfect
it is a must! now i prefer lavender
scented candles, but whatever you
choose will be fine. now just dim the lights
and wala!

Defenintly baby oil that has mineral oil is not so good , try using liquid shea butter , or sweet almond oils instead KAZAM Natural Body Care has all natural & organic oils that are a healthier alternative and it will nourish your skin.
I have just uncovered this gem of a website. Five minutes into reading the articles and I’m alreading loving it! Thank You! Thank You!! Thank You!!!
That sort of scares me. I think that baby oils would clog my pores. But, hey, if it works for you – go for it and continue doing what is best.
Very nice indulgence tip!
My treat, instead of fancy moisturizer, is plain old baby oil.
I still haven’t heard a good argument against it.
Thanks – M
Oh yes – it is!
I wish I had the time to indulge everyday ;)
