When was the last time you practised self-care? Treat yourself, a pal or a loved one this Valentine’s Day with a garden spa. Create your own relaxing retreat and find bliss with easy-to-make spa concoctions that give off heavenly scents promoting relaxation and stress relief.
Handcraft with care
Follow these guidelines when making your own herbal bodycare products.
● Use fresh herbs whenever possible. When substituting dried plant material for fresh, use one-third to one-half of the quantity.
● Harvest organically grown or unsprayed plant materials from your garden or buy from a local grower.
● Make herbal products in nonmetal sterilised containers, such as glass or ceramic, which won’t react with the ingredients. Use non-breakable containers for bath and shower products.
● Make a small quantity of a garden-fresh concoction. Store unused portions in the refrigerator and use within one week.
● Test a concoction by applying a dab to the inside of your forearm; wait 20 minutes before slathering it on your body. If your skin becomes red, irritated or itchy, skip the treatment.
