Why infusionofstyles uses coconut oil
Queen Cleopatra always took a milk bath. I believe it was fermented cow milk's infused with honey or herbs she used. But Coconut milk is much better or just add any 1% , 2% or Goat milk. Add about gallon or less to your bath water. Also add some sea/epson salts or better yet some essential oils. infusionofstyles: Vodka N' Rose Milk Bath product. caution: if you can handle the alcohol! Also try adding a few rose petals or better yet strawberries to exfoliate your skin as well.
