Natural Soap & Body Wash Recipes
Natural Hand & Face Wash
Ingredients:
15 - 20 soap nuts 6 cups water (+ 3 more cups to add whilst boiling) 1/2 -1 tsp of guar gum (to your runny-ness preference) 2 - 3 tbsp of nourishing oil (e.g. almond oil, evening primrose etc) essential oils of your choosing Directions: Start by making your soap nut liquid (which the leftovers will be helpful for you in making lots of different natural recipes). Boil the soap nuts with the original 6 cups of water for around 40 minutes. At the 20 minute mark, add an additional cup of water. At the 30 minute mark, add another 2 cups of water. This can then be refrigerated for up to a week or two. Add the desired amount of soap nuts liquid into a blender and add the guar gum. Blend until it froths up and mixes together. Now remove and pour into container and add your essential oils and shake around to mix together. This mix will settle down over the next few days into a wonderful and super cheap hand soap. |
