Things You'll Need:
- 1/4 Pound of Powdered French Clay
- 1/4 Pound of Powdered Calendula Flowers
- 1 Ounce of Powdered Benzoin Gum
- 1/4 Ounce of Sandalwood Oil
- 1/4 Ounce of Vanilla Oil
-
Step 1
Pour the powdered french clay, powdered calendula flowers and powdered benzoin gum into a large mixing bowl. Stir all of them together gently with a wooden spoon or spatula.

Step 2
To incorporate the sandalwood oil and vanilla oil into the body powder, there are two ways to do this. The easiest, is to use a food processor set to low to mix it all together. If you don't have a food processor, take a few tablespoons of the powder and move into a small mixing bowl. Add in the oils, and blend together until the oils have soaked up into the powder. Add in a few more tablespoons and do this again. Then put the mixture back into the powder, and mix together gently.

Step 3
Sift the powder into an airtight storage container. I suggest using an old pasta or flour container. You could also used a cleaned out old body powder container as well. Store the container in a dry, dark area. The body powder should be used within a 5-6 week period.
