Homemade Shampoo

Step 8YUMMY

YUMMY
I can't resist the alluring smell of this luxurious shampoo.

  • 1/4 cup distilled water
  • 1/4 cup liquid Castile Soap - I use unscented, but you can choose your favorite
  • 2 tsp jojoba oil
  • 10 drops vanilla fragrance oil
  • 10 drops coconut fragrance oil

Mix together all the ingredients. Store in a bottle. Use as you would any shampoo, rinse well.
Dry not to drink this one. It smells tooooo good. . .

Can this just be kept in the bathroom shower? Will it go bad after a certain period of time?

As long as you use distilled, purified or ionized water it shouldn't go bad. I make mine up in approx. 20 oz quantity at a time and because I don't use it but once a week it will last me almost a year. If you use tap water, though, boil it for at least 2 min. before mixing it up to kill any bacteria that may be living in it. I always have distilled water in the house so I use that.
