Girl Time Recipes

Taking time to rediscover the girl in the mommy is important. If you get a chance to have some girl time alone, try some of these treats for your bath time. The girl in you is waiting for a little pampering.

Soothing Herbal Bath Bag

*Muslin or cheesecloth
*Fresh herbs (lavender/rosemary/lemon verbena/chamomile)
*Fine oatmeal or powdered milk, if desired
*Ribbon

Instructions:
Cut a circle from a muslin or cheesecloth and place fresh herbs in the center. Add fine oatmeal or powdered milk as a skin softener, if desired. Gather the muslin into a bundle and tie it tightly with ribbon.
Hang the bag from a faucet so the running water releases its fragrance, or dangle it in the water for the duration of your soothing soak.

Lemon Toner
*1/2 c. lemon juice
*1 c. distilled water
*2/3 c. witch hazel

Combine ingredients and mix well. Pour into container. Shake well before each use. Apply with cotton ball or soft cloth.
