Cooling Foot & Body Powder - A Light & Fragrant Powder Recipe.
This light and fragrant
powder recipe will relieve even the most troublesome feet.
1/2 cup powdered arrowroot
1/2 cup cosmetic clay
2 Tbsp. powdered ginger
20 drops tea tree oil (or lavender essential oil)
To Make This Foot & Body Powder Recipe:
In a large jar, combine the arrowroot, cosmetic clay and ginger. Cover and shake
to mix. Add the tea tree or lavender oil and shake again. Sift the powder
through a fine mesh strainer to break up any drops of oil. Store in a covered,
dark glass jar. Apply as needed to feet or body. Store in a cool, dry place; the
powder will keep indefinitely.
This light, fragrant powder absorbs moisture and fights bacteria to eradicate
perspiration and body odor. It also helps relieve athlete's foot. It contains
tea tree oil and powdered ginger, both of which have antiseptic and anti-fungal
action. If you're making a body powder, you may prefer to use lavender essential
oil in place of the tea tree oil. It has a little less antiseptic power, but
more fragrance.
The cooling foot and body powder
feels silky-smooth and smells terrific. This foot and body powder is a lavish and invigorating way
to treat your skin.
It is easy to make an affordable, skin nourishing and pampering bath and body
product. Feel free to substitute or add other essential oils to personalize your
body powder recipe. The recipe can be left without fragrance
or essential oils can be added for therapeutic benefit. This foot and body
powder feels silky-smooth and smells terrific.
