This lovely recipe was kindly submitted by an contributing member Sal.  Thank you Sal for this lovely and easy recipe to turn any bathtime into a bath treat.  It is very much appreciated :o)

A really nice bath soak I use is as follows:

50g dried lavender flowers
50g dried calendula petals
250g oatmeal
50g bicarbonate of soda
100g sea/epsom salt

Blitz these in a blender or coffee grinder until you get a fine (ish) powder, and put into a storage container. 

When you come to use, put a few table spoons in a muslin bag (or old tights will do) then add up to 6 drops of Lavender EO, and hang over the tap as you fill your bath.  Leave the bag in the water and you'll enjoy a very restful bathe and your skin will come out lovely and soft too. 

I find this is good for calming down eczema
