Notes
If you want to split your batch just estimate separating the dry mixture in two. Then apply 15-18 drops of essential oil in each bowl and mist each with the witch hazel while stirring. I split the batch in the video 50/50 - lavender with buds in half for evening showers and the other half was a blend of lemongrass and lemon oils with Himalayan salt and marigold petals for morning showers
Makes 8 tablets as shown, but yield will vary based on mold size.
