Recipe for Chunky Bath Fizzies

2009-03-31T23:11:00.001-06:00

CHUNKY BATH FIZZIES
12 ounces baking soda
6 ounces Citric acid
2 ounces cornstarch
20 drops Fragrance or essential oil
1.5 ounces distilled water in a spray bottle
Mix dry ingredients together thoroughly. Spritz lightly with water and continue to mix. It is vital to the success of this recipe that the water portion be added at a very slow pace otherwise it will start to fizz. You will have the best results spritzing once or twice, then mixing before spritzing again. You want to add just enough water so that the mixture is moist enough to hold together. When you pick it up and squeeze it together, it should hold its form. Next, press the mixture into a jelly roll style pan. Let it harden for about 6-12 hours and then break into chunks.

Natural Grandma’s Face Care Package

8 0z. Brown Sugar Facial scrub
2 oz. Rosewater Face Cream
2 oz. Rosewater Splash

Rosewater has long been used to tone and refresh the face. It helps to prevent wrinkles and to reduce pores. Our rosewater is made from roses grown without any pesticides. It is distilled naturally from the reddest rose petals for a natural color. We add use a natural alcohol with no scent to preserve the rosewater and essential oils to enhance it.

The Brown Sugar Facial Scrub is made from brown sugar, ground oatmeal and grown raw almonds. It also contains vegetable glycerin and sweet almond oil. The inspiration for the scrub came from a very expensive Brown Sugar Scrub that Liz tried in an exclusive store. We made ours not only better but much more affordable. Use 2 or 3 times a week after cleansing your face. Massage into your face for 5 to 10 minutes and you will love the way your face feels and looks.

The final part of the trio is one we designed ourselves using the rosewater we make and combining it with shea butter and glycerin to make a face crème that works in our dry climate. Use it day or night because it has no waxes or preservatives it will absorb quickly into your skin. We know you will love it.

The total package is only $22.00

Natural Grandmas 10 Ways to Maintain Healthy Feet

1. Inspect your feet regularly and pay attention to changes in color, texture and appearance.

2. Maintain good foot hygiene, including washing and drying between the toes.

3. Hydrate the skin. Dry desert air and open shoes can cause rapid loss of moisture from the feet and cause cracking and the formation of fissures. (Alligator feet). For healthy beautiful feet soak in our Utah Dead Sea soak and then use our Polish with pumice twice or three times a week. Use our Healing foot crème daily.

4 Buy proper-size shoes. Different manufacturers make shoes the vary in size. You will not wear the same size in all brands. Buy shoes late in the day when your feet tend to be the largest. ALWAYS BUY THE SHOES THAT FEEL THE BEST.

5. Do not ignore foot pain. See a doctor is symptoms last more than a few days.

6. Cut toenails straight across. Cutting into the corner of nails can cause ingrown toenails.

7. Walk Walk Walk… Walking is an excellent conditioner for feet. Be sure to wear appropriate athletic shoes when exercising.

8. Alternate your shoes each. Feet have sweat glands and your shoes will absorb moisture from your feet, so it is important for your shoes to dry out completely.

9. Avoid walking barefoot outside to protect your feet from injury and infection.

10. Only wear flip flops on the beach or when at the swimming pool..

11. Put sunblock on your feet when wearing sandals during the day outside.
