I put this on in the morning and evening. I make a face cleanser for my daughter who is prone to acne. Pour into a glass container with disposable wipes bought on amazon.
As a kid we used Arappu and shikakai, to wash our hair. In India Arappu powder is ground leaves and shikakai powder is from a seed. They can be used separately or mixed together. Just mix required amount with water and scrub.
As always read the labels for added ingredients. Henna goes quite orangey for me? Thanks in advance x. My hair does not like coconut products.

Thanks for the share. I want to share something for the curly haired girls like me or just those looking for a natural gel…irish moss. I used it as a gel for the first time a couple days ago. I saw recipes about adding extra oils to it but I used it plain and it worked for me. I used the actually moss, not the powder. I soaked it well for about 5 days, as I traveling and I do own a vitamix so I was able to blend it really smooth.
Thanks for the article, now I want to try the shampoo! Thank you, Kris, for offering some low cost solutions for natural body products. My favorite DIY deodorant is here: I make it with lavender essential oil or with no extra scents. Thanks for sharing Rose! I also have a post on Natural Deodarant here: What a timely recipe! I do have a question, though.
I have read that the pH of the scalp is about 5, and long term use of alkaline ingredients like castille soap can damage the scalp by upsetting the acid mantle. Does the coconut bring the pH down to a suitable range for hair? Is this recipe good for long term use? My favorite night moisturizer is calendula oil with a few drops of carrot seed essential oil.
My favorite daytime moisturizer is evening primrose oil with drops each of immortelle, lavender and blue chamomile. And I alternate using raw honey to cleanse with a combination of French green clay, water, Clary sage, tea tree oil and orris root powder. A while ago, Kris shared this informative article about pH http: An acidic environment on the scalp means no unwanted fungi surviving and thriving on our head!

One of the great things about natural skincare and haircare is that you can absolutely play with these recipes safely! If you want to create a more acidic environment, add a little more coconut cream whilst subtracting some of the liquid castille soap — the choice is yours! I just started making my own deodorant, with shea butter, zinc oxide, magnesium hydroxide, dead sea mud, cocoa butter, myrrh essential oil, arrowroot powder. It is amazing and works against the stink. Thanks for the great article Kris!

I usually look for the least expensive, but I know that is not always best. Oh, and I love the homemade shampoo!
I have been using this wonderful all-natural cold-processed soap that a friend of mine makes — I use it on my face chamomile-calendula and body many different types. I started using it — exclusively — in I am almost 63 and everyone thinks I am because my skin looks and feels so great. She sells her soaps and beautiful jewelry on Etsy. Her prices are very reasonable and the soaps last a long time if you keep them out of water need a draining soap dish. Hi Kris — thanks for this inspiring post.
Would it be possible to add an essential oil that acts as a natural preservative in the shampoo? What do you think? I always enjoy DIY!!
