Superb! I have made milk bath for a couple of years now and these are the same ingredients I use BUT I never thought to add spices — thank you for such a wonderful idea. I tried this recipe, doubling the cinnamon though, and it was great. Milk bath is such a skin softenener; I urge everyone to try this!

I gave myself a few hours off and had a chocolate and cinnamon spa day. I used the Chocolate Bliss Moisture Mask (Chocolate Bliss Moisture Mask) and Gingerbread Body Scrub (Gingerbread Body Scrub) along with this milk bath. As mentioned before there is a little bit of mess to this, and it certainly shows you which spots you missed during cleaning! But a splash of water, or turning on the shower for a few seconds takes care of all that. This made an awesome bath, I was worried about getting a itchy rash, which is usual for me. But nothing of the sort happened which makes me so very happy. There is one thing I need to add though, always do a light all over exfoliation, that way you have clean living skin soaking up all the good stuff, otherwise your just soaking the dry dead skin layer.

I used this recipe last night to bathe my son who has eczema - oatmeal baths are highly reccommeded to soothe his itching skin and to moisturize. Brand names of oatmeal bath mixtures are very expensive so I was very glad to find this recipe! I didn't have cornstarch so I subbed baking soda, and I used 2 C of oatmeal; I added a few drops of Emu oil (also good for eczema) and I skipped the cinnamon in case it was bad for his sensitive skin. I used my mini food processor to powder the oatmeal 1 C at a time - it worked great, and everything disolved in the tub with no problem (I used a kitchen whisk to stir). When I first opened the tub drain some of the mixture clogged the opening, but a swish with my finger opened it up and all went down fine after that. Clean up was easy too - I sprayed the tub with water and it rinsed right off. Thank you very much.

I made a bunch of bags of this for Christmas and put them in with other homeade iteme. Everyone that had tried it loves it. I saved a little for myself and it is so soft and smells so good. It is great for itching and rashes too having the oatmeal in it. After my chicken pox it was great and better than spending money for an oatmeal bath at the pharmacy.

Great stuff ! I have used this twice now and love it. I am not sure if it is my sensitive skin or our water here but the first time I used the 2 Tablespoons and it was nice but tonight I used 3 Tablespoons and my skin feels great. It really is a nice skin softener and the cinnamon was a nice touch for those of us who cannot use most other scented stuff. Thanks for posting this and it will make a great gift too.

Really enjoyed this in my bath last night. I didn't have quite enough powdered milk, but I managed okay just adding a bit more cornstarch. I think I'll give this away as christmas presents!

I love the smell I feel like a big oatmeal cookie. However it did make a big mess of my tub. Maybe I didn't blend the oatmeal enough?
