Homemade Oatmeal Bath Milk With Rose and Lavender buds
Today I want to show you how to make homemade oatmeal bath milk for a soothing night or morning bath.
Oatmeal is known for its moisturizing and soothing benefits for the skin; that’s why it is a great ingredient to add to your skincare routine.
When making this oat milk bath, I added some lavender and rosebuds to give it color and a few drops of lavender essential oil for a calming fragrance.
But you are free to leave out any ingredient you don’t have or can’t afford now; it won’t change the benefits of the oatmeal bath.
Now, please scroll to the bottom to print a recipe copy so you can make it whenever you like.
Let’s dive in.

How To Make An Oatmeal Bath Milk
Like I said at the beginning of this post, you are free to leave out the lavender or rosebuds.
Or replace them with your favorite dried flowers.
Also, you can use way less Epsom salt and baking soda if you like.
One more thing, this recipe can be doubled or cut in half.
Just make it your way, and have fun.

How To Use Oat Milk Bath milk
- Pour the homemade oatmeal into running bath water, then stir to distribute it evenly and break up any lumps.
- If your oatmeal is not finely ground, add it to a small silk drawstring bag and steep it in your bath water.
- Soak in your homemade oat milk bath for about 15 minutes or longer. I’d stay until the water is not so warm anymore because I enjoy long baths.
- Be careful when stepping out of your bathtub because oatmeal bathwater is more slippery than regular soap baths.
- Make sure to use a light moisturizer after soaking in an oatmeal bath.
- But if you prefer not to, that’s okay.
Benefits of oatmeal baths
- Oatmeal is emollient, so it soothes and draws moisture to the outer layer of the skin.
- It also relieves sunburn, eczema, and many other skin irritations in adults and babies.
