Baking Soda Face Wash
Ready to pamper your skin? This baking soda face wash will make you feel like you just spent the day at a spa! We all know that exfoliation is good for the skin, but sugar - and especially salt - scrub is just so abrasive. Okay, so I know it wouldn’t be exfoliation if it wasn’t abrasive, but Keep Reading
Homemade Tooth Powder
I’ve been interested in making my own toothpaste for a long time. I’m not a fan of fluoridated pastes, and Tom’s is quite expensive. Add to that, neither of those two options contain remineralizing ingredients, which, as someone with terrible, terrible teeth, is important to me. Still, Keep Reading

As I’ve said before, Keep Reading
Essential Oil Blends Recipes for Homemade Soap making
I’m honestly not a very imaginative person, so it was really hard to come up with essential oil blends recipes when I first started my homemade soap making journey. I would group up all my little glass bottles, into bottom, middle, and top tones, and gather up a bunch of q-tips, sit at the table, Keep Reading
Homemade Cough Drops
I’ve been seriously enjoying making my own home remedies. It’s amazing how much you can do with a few simple ingredients, and after I made my first batch of homemade cough syrup, I knew that I had to follow it up with homemade cough drops. I’m a huge believer in the power of cough drops on those Keep Reading
Homemade Cough Syrup Recipe
This cough syrup recipe combines several cough, congestion, and germ fighting ingredients that make it amazing! I’m one of those crazies who doesn’t like to intervene too much when I get sick.
