D.I.Y Citrus Soft Scrub

Image
Soft scrub works great, but it has tons of harsh chemicals that I’m not super excited about.  A couple of months ago, I stumbled onto a homemade soft scrub recipe, and although I’ve tweaked it a bit to suit my own tastes, it works AWESOME.  No, seriously, this stuff is amazing.  I clean my toilets and showers with it, and the best part is that there are literally NO harsh chemicals. What you need: An empty dish soap bottle 1 1/2 cups baking soda 1/2 cup castile liquid soap (I recommend lavender, tea tree, or orange scented soap) 2 tbsp. water 2 tbsp. vinegar {your mixture will start to bubble and foam when you add this ingredient due to the reaction with the baking soda} Put all the above ingredients into a bowl and mix well. Once blended transfer to a squeeze bottle and go clean something! Do you make your own cleaning products? What are your favorite essential oils? Thanks for reading.
