I love starting out my day with an invigorating citrus shower with the added benefits of therapeutic essential oils. I tried Caldrea hand soaps and lotions years ago but after I discovered how to make my own soaps and lotions at a fraction of the cost with high quality essential oils, I was moving on to easy DYI projects!
This body wash is so easy to mix up. In minutes, you can have a moisturizing body wash that will tickle your senses. This body wash is made with simple ingredients that you can pronounce with no parabens, sulfates, or preservatives! I love how this body wash moisturizes my skin and leaves me feeling uplifted and energized. enJOY!

Tips
Interested in making your own hand soaps and body wash? Here are some tips and recommendations:
- I save money by buying my castile soap in bulk. (I buy from Azure Standard)
- I purchase my almond oil and vegetable glycerin on Amazon.
- This is the type of Vitamin E oil I use. It is highly concentrated. A little goes a long way.
- I use Young Living Pure Therapeutic Essential Oils. Choose the retail option (ID# 2924389) to order the lemongrass and ginger essential oil.

Sweet!!! I hope you enjoy it. Lemongrass and ginger have so many benefits (even though I initially got them to make body wash and lotion). My hubby really likes this body wash too. Bonus points 😉 Blessings.
