Glow tip ✦ Tie the lavender in a muslin pouch for zero clean-up.
Storage ✦ Pour it all in — this one is made per bath and doesn't store.
Allergy check ✦ Dairy-sensitive skin? Swap whole milk for oat milk. Skip lavender if it irritates you.
Safety ✦ Patch-test on your inner wrist first. For external cosmetic use only — not medical advice.
Common questions
Can I use plant milk?
Yes — oat and coconut milk both feel lovely. The creaminess is what matters.
How often is too often?
1–2 moon baths a week keeps it special (and your skin happy).
