DIY: Body Wash

Made my own body wash today! Repurposed the doterra bottle and put in this:

0.5 c unscented Castile soap

4 tbsp vegetable glycerin 

2 tbsp fco

5 drops each litsea, bergamot, & cedarwood 🛁

Other great oils to use are lavender or serenity for a relaxing scent, citrus bliss or elevation for an energizing body wash, or sandalwood or balance for a more earthy and grounding aroma.

Shake before each use!

DIY: Lip Balm

--lip balm--

Makes 15 tubes so adjust recipe to how many you'd like to make!

0.5 C virgin coconut oil

5 tsp beeswax

3 drops vitamin e

5 drops essential oil

Add more beeswax if you prefer a firmer balm

Peppermint is a nice essential oil to use!

I used peppermint + wild orange, and instead of vitamin e I used rosehip oil and a drop of apricot kernel oil!

Melt coconut oil + beeswax, let cool slightly before adding vitamin e and eos. Once mixed pour into empty tubes! You can let cool at room temp or transfer to fridge to speed it up!
