- mixing bowl
- spray bottle
- mason jars
Directions
Make the mix
- Whisk the three powders together until no lumps remain.
- Stir in the essential oil.
- Spritz lightly with witch hazel, only until a handful holds its shape when squeezed.
- Pack tightly into molds and let them air-dry completely.
- Keep in a sealed, dry jar.
To use
