Aromatherapy Shower Discs (With Essential Oils)
Homemade Shower Disks that Work and Smell Great!
Servings: 12 Discs
Ingredients
- Baking Soda
- Corn Starch
- Muffin Tins
- Foil Lined Muffin Liners (Do not skimp - use the fancy foil lined liners. I promise you will regret it if you buy the cheapos.)
- Your Favorite Brand of Essential Oils
Instructions
- Mix 1 cup of baking soda with 1 heaping tablespoon of cornstarch. Wisk these dry ingredients together, ridding your mixture of any baking soda clumps.
- Slowly add in 1/3 cup water.
- Pour this concoction into foil lined muffin liners in your muffin tin.
- Let this set for 18 hours, or, for more immediate results, bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Baking these discs seems to result in liners that are much easier to remove.
- Once the discs have completely cooled, remove the liners and add 4-5 drops of your choice of essential oils. Lavender or Peace and Calming are great for late night showers before bed while Eucalyptus, Thieves, or Peppermint are good for nasal discomforts. Lemon or Orange essential oils are invigorating and energizing for early morning showers.
- Be sure to store them in an airtight container to prevent evaporation and to retain their aromas and healing properties.
