One of our staff members said she regularly purchased a tiny container of "little round manicure soaking balls" designed to brighten her nails -- until we took her into our office kitchen on Spa Saturdays and made this version for her, at a fraction of the price.
1
denture tablet 1 cup warm water 1-2 drops essential oil
Saturate one denture tablet with a few drops of
essential oil of your choice. Drop the tablet into a small bowl of
warm water. Soak fingertips 10 minutes. Do not keep mixture.
Discard after use.
Gift tip: Using small lavender colored organza gift bags typical of wedding favors, place 1 tablet in each, to which have already added 1-2 drops of lavender essential oil. Add a small bud or sprinkle of dried lavender and a slip of paper with
instructions to add the contents of the bag to warm water for 10 min soak, and give out as a spa party favors. Try a pink bag with a dried rosebud and rose essential oil. Try a green bag with dried rosemary and rosemary oil. You get the idea!
