31 Days of MOO No. 4 MOO Aromatherapy Pods
These little pods are divine to use in the shower and cost a fraction of the bought product.
You will need:
1 cup bicarb soda
1/2 cup citric acid
1/4 cup cornflour
1/4 cup coconut oil
10 - 15 drops of your favourite essential oil (I like a combination of lavender and orange oils)
4 tea bags (flavour of your choice), opened and the tea leaves put aside
Step 1. Combine all ingredients together, stirring well after you’ve added the essential oils.
Step 2. Add just enough water to hold the mixture together (it needs to be like a dough, not runny). Press into small moulds - patty pans or silicone cup cake pans are great for this.
Step 3. Bake at 180 degrees Celsius for 15 - 20 minutes. The pods will be a little damp when they come from the oven, but they will dry out when they cool.
Step 4. Once cool add one or two drops of essential oil to the top of each pod. Remove from mould and store in a clean, dry, air-tight container.
To use: Toss one or two pod onto the shower floor before turning on the water. Enjoy your relaxing aromatherapy shower.
