Guest guest Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 I get the salt/epsom salts and the oil....but what is the sugar for? Just curious. This interested me because I get itchy from most bubble baths and soaps. Chrissie ----- Original Message ----- From: Teague ...snipWhy bubble baths? They help a tired body and make you feel really really good. If you don't want to use soap, use a 1/2 cup of epson salt (or any salt as long as you are not allergic to iodine), 1/2 cup of sugar and a wee bit of olive oil. This will work as an exfoliant and keep your skin soft and smooth. It helps fight away the hypo reaction to constantly keep you dry. ...snip... Quote
Guest guest Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 The salt is abrasive and the sugar is a finer type of abrasive... it leaves your skin smelling kind of sweet and it helps get rid of the dead skin. You can also add essential oils as well. If you are sensitive to certain soaps you can buy plain glycerine bars also. Enjoy! bubble baths??
