Tired of the sultry air in your bathroom? Discover a brilliant make -up with two kitchen heroes that will transform your bathroom into a temple of aromatherapy!
The secret for a fragrant bath is hidden in your kitchen
Ah, Bagno – An oasis of relaxation, fragrant foam baths and … unpleasant odors. The high humidity and closed spaces create the ideal conditions for the formation of mold, spoiled air and smells that not even the most optimistic fragrance can mask. But don’t worry: you don’t have to invest in expensive deodorants for environments with names reminiscent of the French scents purchased in a discount. All you need are two basic ingredients: baking soda e essential oils.
Why do the bathrooms smell so easily?
Due to the constant presence of water (showers, taps, toilets, etc.) and poor ventilation, the bathrooms are a paradise for bacteria, mold and congested air. Wet towels, dirty clothes in a corner and drops that never dry: all this creates a mix of fragrances that the perfumers would prefer to ignore.
Solution? Soda and oil. And no, this is not a recipe for a salad.
Sodium bicarbonate is a natural deodorant: it neutralizes the acid and basic molecules that cause bad smells. Mixing it with a few drops of essential oil (for example lavender, eucalyptus or lemon), we obtain a deodorant for natural environments that is not only effective, but also purely zen.
Recipe: WC deodorant that acts during the night
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons of sodium bicarbonate
- 400 ml of hot water
- 10 drops of essential oil (lavender to calm, lemon to refresh or tea tree to disinfect)
Instructions:
- In a bowl, mix the baking soda with the hot water and mix until completely dissolving.
- Add the essential oil you have chosen.
- Pour the mixture into a spray bottle and spray it on the toilet, on the shower curtain and on the sink.
- For an even more magical effect, spray it in the toilet in the evening before going to bed: the scent of well -being will welcome you in the morning.
