Bath Powder

What you will need:

Cornstarch

Essential oil or perfume oil (available at many bath shops specializing in perfume and potpourri)

Tin to hold the powder and powder puff (available at drugstores) or large, fancy salt shaker

How to do it:

Make sure your hands are clean and dry. For every 1/2 cup of cornstarch, use about 10 drops of oil, and mix well with your hands. Place the powder in a tin with a powder puff or in a salt shaker.
