DIY Body Wash

This homemade body wash uses aromatherapy to help wake you up (or help you unwind!) and can be tailored to fit your needs and favorite smells. Plus, if you shell out the few extra dollars to get organic unscented soap instead of plain unscented, you’ll have a natural body product that smells good without any added chemicals.


To make the body wash , you’ll first mix 2 parts of your unscented body wash with one part water. Then, add in the essential oils of your choice to make whichever aromatherapy soap you want. Some ideas:

Uplifting Body Wash
25 Drops of Lavender Essential Oil
15 Drops of Grapefruit Essential Oil
 
Calming Body Wash
25 Drops of Sandalwood Essential Oil
10 Drops of Lavender Essential Oil
5 Drops of Clary Sage Essential Oil
 
Energizing Body Wash
20 Drops of Lavender Essential Oil
10 Drops of Rosemary Essential Oil
10 Drops of Peppermint Essential Oil
 
Mood Boosting Body Wash

10 Drops of Bergamot Essential Oil
 
Sensual Body Wash

Add those to 4 ounces of your soap to create the perfect aroma-therapeutic body wash!
