If you're like me, you hav amazingly sensitive, dry skin naturally. Most normal soap makes my skin dry out and crack, especially on my hands. I make my own body washes and soaps, or I use Bert's Bees or Johnson and Johnson's if I am really pressed for time. The ingredients in this body wash are so gentle and hydrating and healing that you're sure to see an improvement in your skin after a week. It's also safe for your face and mild enough for use on infants.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon calendula petals (pot marigold)
1 tablespoon rose petals
1/4 cup milliliters water
2 tablespoons vegetable glycerin
100 gram bar of castille or lye soap, finely grated
1 1/2 cups water
essential oil (optional)
Boil calendula, rose petals and 100 ml water. Remove from heat and steep for 15 minutes. Strain. Add glycerin oil. Set aside. In a separate pan melt grated soap and 400 ml of water, whisking until smooth. Add two mixes together with 15-20 drops of essential oil. Pour into a plastic bottle. Shake well before using.
Shelf life 1 year.
