Body wash and soaps can be very toxic, but making your own DIY natural body wash can be more cost effective and healthier for you.
DIY Natural Body Wash
Ingredients:
- 8 oz. glass pump bottle
- 1/2 cup unscented Castile soap
- 4 tablespoons vegetable glycerin
- 3 tablespoons fractionated coconut oil
- 10 drops of your favorite essential oil
(Vegetable glycerin helps the body wash turn out thicker, creamier, and lather up better).
Directions:
Combine all the ingredients into a glass pump bottle using a funnel.
Add the essential oil(s) of your choice. For an uplifting body wash, try citrus oils, Peppermint, Grapefruit, or Lime. For a more relaxing body wash try Lavender, Geranium, or Roman Chamomile.
Shake the bottle and you are done! Be sure to shake the bottle before each use as sometimes the ingredients will settle to the bottom.
