mwolbers Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 When I make something like this, I color just one of the ingredients, then mix everything together. It's a visual aid for me. It helps me know, that I've got everything mixed really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idacandlelady Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Just wondering, if I tried this and did add epsom salt, how much would I need to use? TIA for the help.RebeccaActually I have straight bath salts and my milk baths have dead sea salts in with the powdered goat's milk & coconut milk and both sell great. So go ahead and add the epsom salts, your customers will love them!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamperme Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I would just add some gradually keeping track of how much you are putting in until you get a consistancy you like..where you can see the salt..when you add all that other stuff the salts kinda get buried under it all and you can't even tell they are in there.:undecided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amillion3147 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I already have a can of powdered goats milk. Can this be used instead of just normal plan powdered milk. I know how my goats milk smells like amonia in CP once it goes into the mold. I just don't want the same thing when I put it in the tub. Granted I am not bathing in a tub of lye:cheesy2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryann Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 You can use powdered goats' milk, buttermilk, coconut ..... did I miss any?? or just plain powdered milk (which I think they sell skim powdered milk as well). HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsDammit Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I tried making a milk bath with powdered goats milk & couldn't get past the smell-ack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COJECO Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Hi,Do you think I can add SLSA to your recipe to make if sudsy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazerina Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Ok weird question here.... does any body know if using skim would take away from the benefits/results? I think it would be cute to call it 'Skinny Milk Bath'... or something to that effect anyways, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2bcrafting Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 I made this recipe today, and poured some into my kids bath a few mins ago. They weren't in there too long, before they both got sore "butts":cry2: and had to get out. Did I do something wrong? Or maybe this is for adults and not kids tender skin? I followed the recipe, any suggestions? Hubby's in a bath as I type this, so he's trying it out. Jeepers, I bought all these ingredients, in hopes of adding them into gift pkgs. I'm thinking if anything, it may be the baking soda, maybe I could make them with epson salts instead of soda? Any suggestions appreciated,TIA,Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

countrychunkie Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Hello all,Newbie to the site, and to milk bath area. Been making candles 6 years and wanting to venture in bath and body now. What could you add to this recipe to make it foam or fizz? I guess a foaming milk bath? Any help is so appreciated.Thanks,Kim:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Citric will make it fizz and sodium laurel sulfoacetate will make it bubble. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countrychunkie Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Thanks so much. Where do I find this slsa? Never heard of that before, I have heard of the citric before and that is totally skin safe and it will only make it fizz, is that fizz like alka seltzer? LOL sorry all I could think of that fizzes.Thanks,Kim:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Kind of like alka seltzer lol Just do a google search for slsa and it should bring up several suppliers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luci Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 What would the recommended amount of slsa and citric acid be for the recipe in post #1? I'm not so much into fizz, etc., but I am curious. I'd like to make some for myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlemakingkid Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Luci,Check out page 4 of this thread. Butterfly has posted how she uses slsa.ChrisWhat would the recommended amount of slsa and citric acid be for the recipe in post #1? I'm not so much into fizz, etc., but I am curious.

Luci Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Thanks. Must have had one of my memory lapses. I read that post recently and didn't remember. Now . . if I had some slsa I'd be ready to try a batch. Got citric but no slsa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenScentU Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Here's a recipe I found. I have not tried it but if you want bubbles this might work. http://www.notmartha.org/tomake/bubblebath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amillion3147 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Do you have to use any type of preservative with this. This is the one thing I still haven't gotten the answer to. I got some non fat milk to try this out and will be using a FO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazerina Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 The general consensus is... if you will be adding no water to the packaged product.....you do not need a preservative. Go by the expiration date on the dry milk package instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go by the expiration date on the dry milk package instead.And since instructions are to ADD 2 to 3 TBLS etc... TO bath(by shaking in or by scoop) hopefully water would not be added to the product. That is my thinking when I sell this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
