Next up in my reviews of the Burt's Bees Baby Bee products: Baby Bee Buttermilk Bath powder. This is a simple and somewhat expensive product, but it works fabulously and it smells better than bath products that cost 10X as much. Buttermilk Bath is a powder that you put in the bath water, either for baby's bath or your own bath, to soothe dry and irritated skin and leave your skin soft and sweet-smelling. This is my favorite way to relax after a long day, and it always leaves my skin sooooo silky. I also use it in my foot bath before a pedicure and I soak my hands in it before a manicure.
Recently DH and I went to Minnesota to see my in-laws. The weather was even colder and drier than here in Ohio, so within a day the skin on my body was dry and itchy all over. Luckily I came prepared, so at the end of the day I ran a warm bath, dumped in some of this Buttermilk bath, and as I soaked I rubbed Baby Bee Apricot Oil into my skin. When I got out of the bath, not only was I not dry or itchy anymore, but my skin felt like absolute silk. DH noticed how soft I was too, and he couldn't keep his hands off of me! (Sorry if that's TMI, guys...  ) The yummy smell also helped relax me after a day of traveling etc.
If you pay retail cost, this stuff runs around $15 for 9 oz. It might seem expensive for just some powdered milk, but it is soooo worth it! If you would like to try before you buy, there's a single-use packet of it in the Baby Bee try-me kit. You can also get it for less at sites like vitacost.com where it's $10.39.
Ingredients:
Nonfat Dry Milk, Whole Dry Buttermilk, Fragrance
