DIY Car Deodorizer

March 10, 2015 by admin

Finding ways to use essential oils in place of toxic cleaners opens up many doors. Did you know that exposure to toxic cleaners can raise the chances of asthma, cancer, allergies, and reproductive or developmental toxicity (Environmental Working Group)?

Using essential oils to create your own household cleaners and sprays can help eliminate these toxins from your every day life.

Car Deodorizer

This recipe will help eliminate lingering odors in your vehicle!

3/4 cup water

1/4 cup vinegar

6 drops lavender

4 drops lemon

4 drops wild orange

2 drops peppermint

Combine all ingredients into a small spray bottle (about 8 ounces), and shake well. Hold the spray bottle about 6-8 inches away from surfaces, and lightly mist upholstery and carpeting. Leave the windows and doors open for 15 minutes after spraying, if possible.

Homemade Shampoo Recipe

Hello :-)

I found some great recipes this week! I cannot wait to try this first one but I don't quite have all the ingredients.  It's a homemade shampoo recipe and the blogger seems to have hair like I do so I hope it works well for me too!  I also did the no poo thing  for a while but it made my hair very dry.

Here are her ingredients and directions and below is the link her her website:

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup liquid castile soap
• 1/4 cup canned coconut milk (tip: freeze the rest of the contents of the can in cubes using an ice cube tray so you can use it for future recipes.)
• 1/4 cup honey
• 2 tbsp fractionated coconut oil ( I get mine from Simply Aroma)
• 1 tbsp Vitamin E oil
• 40 – 50 drops essential oils (see below)

Directions

Mix all of the ingredients in a container with a lid (like this squeeze bottle). Put on the lid and shake to combine. Shake before using and use as you would any commercial shampoo.

Essential Oil Combination

Now, to figure out which essential oils to use. You can use just one if you’d like, but I typically make a combination for specific properties (and delicious smells).

For yummy smell:

• 20 drops lavender essential oil & 30 drops wild orange essential oil
• 20 drops peppermint essential oil & 30 drops lavender essential oil (or wild orange if you don’t want to use lavender)
• 15 drops lavender essential oil, 25 drops lemongrass essential oil & 10 drops lemon essential oil

For dandruff: 10 drops each lemon, lavender, melaleuca and rosemary essential oils
For fragile hair: 20 drops clary sage, 15 drops lavender & 15 drops wild orange essential oils
For hair loss: 10 drops each rosemary, peppermint, cedarwood and lavender essential oils
