I will walk you through the recipe, step-by-step, and include information about why specific ingredients are used and why I chose them. I will also list below for you the actual items I used in my recipe, as well as some additional purchasing options (like Amazon, for ease and one-stop shopping).
I hope you enjoy this DIY Milk Bath tutorial and make some beautiful milk baths for yourself, your loved ones, or your customers!
Recipe ingredients for approx 100oz batch size:
1oz Natrasorb Bath (not required, but recommended)
1oz Fragrance (check your fragrance choice for skin safe levels)

20oz White Kaolin Clay
10oz Goat Milk powder

Hi, I’m considering making some of this as gifts for friends and family at some point, and I was wondering if you can add colorants, and what types would you suggest, as well as how much?
@AMandatoryActivity
@AMandatoryActivity 2 жыл бұрын
You can typically add colorants as long as you make sure you pick one that is tub safe, but I think it would require some investigation/testing. For example, I would think a dry colorant such as a mica would be best because it wouldn't add moisture to the dry powder recipe, BUT if you add in a mica, you run the risk of having ring-around-the-tub if you don't have an emulsifier like polysorbate 80 (which is a liquid). I guess, in short, I wouldn't recommend doing it to this recipe...I would stick to a fizzy bath salt or something you can squeeze some polysorbate 80 into. I'm considering doing a fizzy bath salt tutorial next, so maybe that would be more up your alley. :)

Thanks Monica! I put a shelf life of 1 year on my label, but the rule of thumb is typically that the shelf life of your product is the shortest shelf life of the ingredients you used.

Hello! I don't actually have any experience using natrasorb in lotions, so I can't advise. It's called Natrasorb Bath, so I presume its benefit is more for bath water products, not products like lotion. In fact, I would think given that it helps absorb moisture, it would probably make a lotion gummy...

Hi! I know that people swear by corn starch for the same purpose, but I've never tried it, so I can't advise what amount of corn starch could be substituted. You could always make a baby batch and try corn starch to see what the finished product feels like. My _guess_ is that corn starch wouldn't make the water quite as soft, but would do the job of absorbing the oils and keeping the milk powders dry.

The rule of thumb is that typically the shelf life of your product is the shelf life of the ingredient that has the shortest shelf life. For example, if you’re making something that has 5 ingredients that have a shelf life of 2 years and 1 ingredient with a shelf life of 1 year, your shelf life is 1 year. That being said, I put a label on mine to give it a shelf life of a year but it could probably go a little longer. After it’s opened, the thing to pay attention to is making sure it gets sealed properly and not left open in the bathroom where it could attract humidity and get gummy.

Hi Courtney, the short answer is no. Dry milk powders have a pretty long shelf life (exactly how long is up for debate). I had the same thought when I first started making milk bath, but there are people who believe that the shelf life of powdered milk is “indefinite”. I personally like the articles that tell you shelf life is within 1-2 years (because that seems more reasonable!), and to be cautious I put a “use within 12 months” label on my milk bath. Hope this helps!

Hi Jannildy, whenever I choose to use essential oils in a recipe, I always use the same free online resource, which is eocalc.com. Nobody can blindly assign a usage rate for all essential oils each blend is going to have its own safe use rating based on your product type. For example, you wouldn’t use the same amount of cinnamon oil in a bath product as you might with lavender…. Eocalc.com is a great resource. You can enter your essential oil (or blend of oils if that’s what you’re using) and tell the calculator what type of product you are making and it will give you a safe usage rate for your specific blend :). I love it!

It's an interesting question and one that seems to be debated online. I haven't tried a substitution of tapioca starch for natrasorb, and I can't say that I know enough about the properties of tapioca starch (like the kind you find for food prep, for example) to say whether it would perform in the same way. I know that Natrasorb is considered a "modified" tapioca starch, but I don't know what the modification is that makes it different from regular tapioca starch. I think if you don't want to use Natrasorb specifically, you'd be better off buying a modified tapioca starch such as this one: www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/products/tapioca-starch-modified.aspx, which should be the same basic thing but perhaps with less wait time for shipping. :)

Hi Josephine. I hesitate to provide any guidance on what is safe to use on babies, but I think the answer probably lies in the fragrance used. There are safe fragrance usage rates for each fragrance oil, so the best thing to do would be to check whichever fragrance you are using to see whether the safe fragrance amount for a baby product is different. On the websites where you order your fragrance products, look for the IFRA safety sheet to check the safe usage rate for babies.

I don't use Natrasorb in my regular bath salts because I find they stay dry enough on their own, but with the milk powders, I really think Natrasorb is the way to go to keep the milks from clumping. I think you can certainly try it, but I haven't done it that way because I want the powder to stay dry and fluffy so when a customer picks up the bottle the powder moves around a little (not in a total blob shaped like the bottle :))

Oh, I thought this was a message on my bath salt video, so I was confused by your question! 🤦‍♀️. You can skip the salt if you like, and have it be just milks. You can just replace the salt volume with additional milk powder so you don’t have too much fragrance in your recipe.

How would I make a smaller batch? How would I figure the measurements for a smaller batch like maybe 6 bottles? Could I just divide your recipe in half??

Absolutely. You can make as small a batch as you like! You can half it or quarter it, or adjust it to whatever size you need. 😊

Hi Trolonda, I do make bath tea but I didn't do a video because I cheat a little and start with the bath tea bases from Wholesale Supplies Plus and then just add some soothing salts, etc. to the mix. I also don't fragrance my bath tea because it's already so lovely with all the dried flowers. I wasn't sure it would be interesting enough? But if you'd like to see, I can certainly add it into the vlog mix. Actually, my packaging for the tea is cute too, so maybe that would be interesting enough by itself! I need to make some more soon for the Holidays anyway. :)

Why can’t you use regular tapioca starch?
@AMandatoryActivity
@AMandatoryActivity 2 жыл бұрын
I’ve never tried it, so it’s possible it might work. This is my recipe, so I shared what I know. I like the way that Natrasorb absorbs the fragrance and dries quickly so none of the powders get gummy. If you try regular tapioca starch let me know how it goes! ☺️

2 Questions as I'm learning... Actually 3... 1- Found 'whole' milk powder which states, "Only disolve in cold water"... What to do now... 2- Can you use "coffee creamer" in milk baths? 3- Why are essential oils fragrance so weak and some smell like oil gone bad?
@AMandatoryActivity
@AMandatoryActivity 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Cat! It sounds like those instructions for whole milk powder might be for making milk to drink, in which case cold water makes sense. There's no reason why you can't use whole milk powder in your milk bath mix. You can replace any of the milk powders in the recipe. You cannot use coffee creamer in milk baths...you don't want any additional ingredients or preservatives or flavorings or anything that you can't identify. #1, there's no telling how it would react with the other ingredients, and #2, you need a cosmetics label for milk bath and figuring out all of the ingredients in coffee creamer to get them on your label would be a nightmare. For your essential oils question, I'm not sure I know the answer. I use fragrance oils in this recipe. I do use essential oils in my bath salts though. Some oils are just naturally stronger, some manufacturers make stronger oils than others, and some oils are probably actually paste their shelf life. I like essential oils from brambleberry.com and naturesgardencandles.com for strength and aroma. They will also let you know the shelf life of each... Hope this helps!

I didn't go to school for this, it's a fair amount of just trial and error (or not error as much as tweaking). Back in the day I used to take milk baths with just powdered milk....and then as I learned about what different products do in bath water (i.e. softeners like baking soda and clay, skin benefits of different salts, etc.) it was just a matter of tweaking it just right. I like this formulation a lot with the addition of the natrasorb (which was new to me) but keeps the powders nice and dry and fluffy!

Sun Essential Oils, brand are not genuine essential oils. Please be careful when sourcing EO because there are a lot of people with chronic illness like autoimmunity who read "essential oils" on your labels and think it is safe for them to use. I have MS, and being exposed to synthetic fragrance makes me go numb from the waist down with blurred vision pain all over and trouble speaking and understanding. Fragrance is full of neurotoxins, hormone disrupters, and immune disrupters. Some people are affected immediately, others don't see the consequences until they have a brain tumor. Please research trusted brands that are third party verified as genuine essential oils. Most of the ones on Amazon are synthetic. Now, brand Is a good balance between cost and quality and is a trusted brand.
