Super Frothy Body Wash

I like this because it works just as good as the fancy stuff and the ingredients are super cheap.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 Tbsp. canola oil
  • 1/2 cup of cheap dollar store shampoo
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • essential oil of your choice
  • food coloring

Directions:

add canola oil to shampoo. Mix without making bubbles, and add the essential oils and food coloring (optional). Then add the baking powder and the baking soda, and lastly mix in the salt. Pore into a a bottle and apply with a tulle sponge (or any sponge) and enjoy!

Hello slumbergirl :-)
Thanks for posting your body wash; it certainly sounds interesting. I wondered if perhaps sweet almond oil, or olive oil might be better for the skin than the canola oil. I realize that it may add a little extra to the cost, but I'm sure the added benefit would be worth it. Have you tried other oils with your recipe? Cheers ... Wendy
