This white emulsion contains high quality essential oil of pine resin, along with salicylic acid, natural camphor and soap.

White turpentine mixture. To prepare 1 liter of the mixture, you will need: distilled water 550 ml, salicylic acid 3 g, camphor alcohol 20 ml, gum turpentine 500 ml and baby soap 30 g, which must be finely chopped. Method of preparation: pour distilled water into an enamel bowl and put on fire. After boiling water, add salicylic acid and planed baby soap.

My Small Batch Formula
Fill the bathtub up with enuff water so you can submerge your head down into it while bathing.
Bathtub temp MUST be at 100 degrees F.
While the tub is filling up. Take a clean empty soda bottle and add the following:
- 20 drops Pine resin turpentine. Increase drops as you can tolerate up to 60 drops.
- 1 - 325mg aspirin for the salicylic acid (it will dissolve in water)
- 20 drops baby shampoo
- 20 drops camphor oil
Now fill the bottle halfway up with water, cap, and shake til uniformed.
Now add this to your bathwater. Soak and enjoy. Unless you have a way to re-heat the water in the tub, you will have to refill tub with a new batch.
Turpentine Baths
★★★★★
I am 21 days into the bath regiment (of a total of 30 days this round) when at about the 10th day I noticed I was not having eye issues anymore.
The symptoms I was having were; watery-red eyes, itchy eyelids, crusty eyelids upon waking up, sensitivity to light, blurry vision at times.
The only thing I can think of that is helping clear my eyes is when I'm taking the white bath, I am submerging my head down into the water and placing a soaked washcloth from the bath waters across my eyes and forehead. I do this for the entire 20-minute setting.
Since pure gum turpentine is an exceptional broadband anti-pathogen, anti-microbial, anti-parasite, fungicide. It makes sense that it would work. I just never made the connection to use it as a compress over my eyes. I am making my own homemade white baths using (Humco Brand - Pure Gum Resin Turpentine).
