How much milk should be put in a bath

If the family is financially well-off, they can take a milk bath, because milk baths help increase skin elasticity and are good for whitening the skin and replenishing skin moisture, so milk baths are a common whitening method. When taking a bath with milk, the ratio of milk to water should be 1 to 10. If the concentration of milk is too low, the bathing effect will not be obvious.

1. How much milk should be put in a milk bath

For a milk bath in an ordinary bathtub, you need to put about 1.5 to 2 liters of fresh milk, or use 200 grams of whole milk powder and dilute it in a ratio of 1:10.

This ensures that there is enough milk to moisturize the skin and generally does not cause too much waste.

2. What kind of milk is good for taking a bath?

It is best to use whole milk when taking a milk bath. This type of milk has concentrated nutrients and can be more absorbed and utilized by the skin. If you use milk powder, you should also choose whole milk powder.

3. What is the best water temperature for a milk bath?

The water temperature for taking a milk bath should be between 40℃ and 60℃. If the water is too cold, the pores will not open easily, while if the water is too hot, the nutrients in the milk will be destroyed. Mix the milk at a suitable temperature, soak it for about 20 minutes and then rinse it off. If the time is too long, the bacteria in the milk will damage the skin.

4. Who is not suitable for milk bath?

People with low blood sugar, after a full meal, hungry, after working, after drinking, or having a fever should not take a milk bath. Taking a milk bath in these abnormal conditions can easily lead to hypoglycemia, dizziness, blurred vision, and even collapse and fainting.

Can I take a milk bath every day?

Yes, you can.

However, it should be noted that

You can use expired milk. The stale milk in the supermarket is discounted.

Why use expired milk?

The reason why expired milk can be used to protect the skin is that it produces a large amount of lactic acid, which can soften the cuticle and has a good moisturizing effect. Secondly, although the milk has gone bad, the fat in it has not been destroyed in a short period of time, so the moisturizing effect will not be weakened. From this perspective, expired whole milk is better for skin care than skim milk.

To use expired milk for skin care, you can apply it directly to your face, or you can pour a bottle of expired milk into the bathtub, dilute it with water, and then take a bath. However, the effect will be weakened after dilution, so it is best to apply milk all over the body in advance, massage for 5-10 minutes, and then soak in the bathtub. Because lactic acid bacteria will not cause urinary tract infections, women do not need to worry about the safety of this skin care method.

It should be noted that if the expired milk has already coagulated, it should not be used. Because when milk protein clumps, it loses its moisturizing effect and has little meaning for skin care.
