Indulgent Chocolate Bath
Indulgent Chocolate Bath Why we love it: Contrary to popular myth, chocolate is not bad for your skin. In fact, cocoa powder is packed with antioxidants that can reverse free radical damage — the sneaky reason behind your wrinkles. Plus, this cocoa concoction is more than just an anti-ager; it'll also put you on the fast track to your happy place. Scientists suggest that just smelling chocolate activates the pleasure center of the brain. Meanwhile, oats, a common ingredient in many moisturizers, soothe irritated or dry skin.

Ingredients:
1 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup ground oats
Directions:
Add ingredients to a hot bath and stir to distribute. Soak for at least 20 minutes. After soaking, rinse thoroughly.
