Vinegar Bath



Vinegar (apple cider) alleviates dry, itchy and flaking skin. It also restores the skin's natural acid balance. Add 1 cupful to your bath. If you don't like the aroma of apple cider vinegar, it can be infused with healing herbs to somewhat camouflage the aroma, and to provide you with beauty benefits.

In a ceramic or glass bowl (never metal) place the vinegar and herbs to set for at least 8-10 hours and strain and pour into bath water. You can make this weeks ahead of time and bottle it and use when needed. Just like the oils, you can strain and add fresh herbs many times to make the fragrance more pleasing.
