Chocolate Milk Bath

Photobucket

Ok, so you can't eat it, but it's definitely a nice way to indulge!

I'll admit it; I adore spa products. Any kind of lotion, scrub, bubble bath -- I'm all over it, but frankly that stuff gets expensive! Lately I've discovered that you can make that stuff yourself, and for a few cents compared to the hefty price tags in the boutiques and spas.

I keep telling myself that someday I'll make it here to relax in one of their Whipped Cocoa Baths.

Hershey Spa - "Settle into our foaming chocolate milk bath for a soothing and softening signature Hershey experience. Milk will soften and renew the skin while you indulge in this chocolate experience"


I can't help wonder though how far this little mixture I made myself would compare though. I thought it would be a great way to relax and enjoy Valentines day with some calorie-free chocolate.

Chocolate Milk Bath

1/2 cup powdered milk
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup Epsom salts
1/4 cup baking soda
1/4 cup cornstarch

Add all ingredients, mix well, and store in a jar. Add a handful to your bath and enjoy.

What a great gift idea! I love it. If my home only had a tub (sigh) I'd make it for myself.
