The Origins of Bath Milk Soaks


Milk baths have been popular for centuries, with Cleopatra being one of the most famous advocates of the practice. According to legend, she bathed in a tub of milk and honey to keep her skin soft and supple. Milk baths were also used in ancient times to relieve skin irritation and inflammation, particularly in people with eczema or psoriasis.

The Benefits of a Bath Milk Soak

2. Soothes Skin Irritation and Inflammation:Milk's anti-inflammatory properties can help to soothe irritated skin, making it an excellent choice for those who have sensitive skin.
3. Relieves Stress and Anxiety:Taking a warm bath is a great way to relax, but adding milk to your bathwater can help to reduce stress and anxiety even more.Milk contains tryptophan, an amino acid that can aid in the induction of sleep and the promotion of relaxation.
