When having your bath, heat milk, but not to boiling point. Two to four cups of whole milk is usually enough. Skim milk does not have the fat or protein content that will moisturize your skin so it is not recommended for bathing. Add the heated milk to your bath after it has finished running along with oils and other ingredients. Be sure to mix things around before getting in to avoid hitting a patch of hot milk. You certainly do not want to burn your skin.

Be sure to rinse away milk in the shower after your bath is finished.

The only thing left is to soak away your worries, relax and get beautiful glowing natural skin!
