Natural Baby Powder

DIY

Ingredients

  • 1 cup arrowroot powder
  • 1/2 cup kaolin clay*
  • 1/4 cup ground calendula (or chamomile or a blend of the two) 1/4 cup ground oats
  • 20 drops lavender essential oil optional

Instructions

  • Grind dried flowers into powder. A high powered blender works well or a coffee grinder. If necessary, use a sieve to stain out larger pieces, leaving just the powder.
  • Mix together with other ingredients.
  • Store in a spice jar or other reusable container.
  • A mason jar with holes punched into the lid works well for at home, while a spice jar is great for taking with you in your diaper bag.

Notes

You can simply use arrowroot powder on its own if you want an ultra cheap version of this recipe. The flowers add healing properties, the oats soothe the skin, while the kaolin clay draws out impurities.
