Title: Orange-Flower Powder
Categories: Cosmetic *
Yield: 8 Ounces

1	c	Cornstarch
1	ts	Orange flower water
3	dr	Orange oil (neroli)

Orange oil, or neroli, comes from the bitter orange tree, and helps to relieve anxiety and calm the nerves. To get a better night's sleep, use this powder in the evening before going to bed - the scent is very relaxing. For extra-pleasant dreams, sprinkle a bit on your sheets before getting into bed.

Place the cornstarch in the blender and start blending on low. With the blender still running, slowly add the orange flower water and orange oil, one at a time. When well mixed, pour into a clean container. You may apply with a shaker-type container, or use a pretty jar with a lid.
