Ngongotaha Cottage Shop
Our luxurious Eco friendly Sherbet Bath sachets are totally plastic free. Give yourself a luxury bath without soap, just use a face cloth. Bath bombs must be shrink wrapped so I have stopped making them for this reason. Sheret Bath sachets are exactly the same as a bath bomb, but come in a paper packet and are not in a hard lump. One packet does one bath. There is very little clean up afterwards, as they make the bath water really soft so when you empty the bath there is little or no "bath ring". Flavours this week: Lavender, DebE, Vanilla Musk, and, Love. $3 each.
Our ingredients include: Baking Soda, Citric Acid, Oatmeal (finely ground), Jojoba and Apricot kernel oils, Kaolin Clay, Tapioca starch, and fragrance, Essential oils. (according to your choice) colour free.
