Homemade Skin Whitening Milk Bath Recipes

By Tiffany Moore

One of Cleopatra's beauty secrets to silky smooth and milky white complexion is milk bath. Taking a milk bath is one of the easiest ways to lighten and brighten dark skin almost instantly.

A milk bath benefits your skin in many ways. Its different types of acids, particularly lactic acid, helps to exfoliate your old skin cells to make way for newer, younger, more vibrant skin underneath to shine through. So you come out of the bathtub with baby soft, fair skin.

The fats, proteins, vitamins and minerals in milk are especially beneficial for people with skin issues such as sunburns, psoriasis, eczema or dry itchy skin. Both ingredients provide the skin with good nourishment, which soothe skin irritations. They also brighten dry skin, and makes it silky to the touch.

You can use regular milk or powder milk, about 2-3 cups regular milk are enough. If you're using powder milk, just follow the instructions. For people who dislike the slight greasy feel after a milk bath, try fat free milk or skim milk. However, an oily sensation means that your skin is getting really good humectants.

You can also add other natural ingredients such as honey, oatmeal, lavender, essential oils and even natural clay to boost the beautifying effects of your homemade milk bath. For example, oats is good for to soothing dry sensitive skin while honey has great softening and moisturizing properties.

Here are the best homemade milk bath recipes that really whiten, lighten and brighten dull-looking skin. For best skin whitening and softening results, exfoliate your body with a mild scrub before you soak.
