Why recepie famous for?

Needless to say, I always keep a bottle of this calming bath oil up my sleeve for times like these. It’s wonderfully soothing, not just for skin but also for an anxious mind. Plus it smells incredible and leaves skin insanely hydrated.

Ingredients

1/4 cup fractionated coconut oil which stays liquid at room temperature
3/4 cup sweet almond oil
8 drops rosemary essential oil
15 drops cedarwood essential oil
10 drops camphor essential oil
1 cup dried chamomile flowers or 20 drops chamomile essential oil
Glass mason jar for infusing the chamomile oil
8- ounce glass bottle with lid

Instructions


Start by infusing the chamomile oil. For the slow extraction method, combine dried chamomile flowers with 1 cup almond oil in a glass mason jar. Screw on the lid and set aside to steep for 3 - 4 weeks, then strain out the chamomile. To save time, combine the chamomile and almond oil in a small sauce pan. Heat over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, then turn off the heat and let the chamomile infuse in the oil for an hour. Strain out the chamomile.
Using a funnel, pour the almond oil into a glass bottle. Add the coconut oil and essential oils (if using chamomile essential oil, add it now). Feel free to add more chamomile blossoms or other dried herbs if you like.
Screw on the lid and shake well to combine.
While filling up the tub, pour 1 - 2 tablespoons under the running faucet. Allow the oils to disperse throughout the water before climbing in. Soak for 30 minutes then gently towel off.
