Natural DIY Bath Recipes
If you’re a DIY type, here are three of our favorite baths to create at home, hopefully with ingredients that are in your pantry or easy to grab at the grocery store! Feel free to add 5-8 drops of your favorite essential oil to any of these—we'll list a few ideas below.
Buttermilk + Honey DIY Bath
Combine one cup of fresh buttermilk or ¼ cup buttermilk powder with two tablespoons of honey and add to running water. Soak for 20-30 minutes, and rinse well before getting out of the tub. Try this one with 5 drops of lavender essential oil.
Salt + Tea DIY Bath
Add one cup of salt (epsom salt or sea salt), ½ cup baking soda, and three green tea bags to your tub. Steep for 20-30 minutes, and rinse well before getting out of the tub. A few drops of eucalyptus essential oil would be lovely with this bath.
Oat + Coconut DIY Milk Bath
Combine ½ cup oat flour with one can of full-fat coconut milk for the vegan milk bath of your dreams. Rinse well before getting out of the tub. We love sandalwood essential oil with this bath—so dreamy!
In case you’re not in the mood to DIY, we have a few great options for you! They’re not DIY, but they’re made by hand with love by the Osmia Team, so they’re pretty close??
Recovery Salt Bath
Essential oils of marjoram, lavender, eucalyptus, mint, and juniper combine with French gray sea salt and lavender-infused oil to create a restorative bath experience for tired muscles.

Osmia Body Oils
Adding a few pumps of your favorite Osmia body oil to your bath will create a skin-softening experience. Just be super careful getting out of the tub, as it will make your tub a bit slippery.
(And be sure to give the tub a wash before using it again!)
Happy tubbing!!
