Natural Antibacterial cleanser
Dec. 2nd, 2006 08:04 pmA natural antibacterial cleanser that helps you clean your home without
hurting the planet. The aroma of the essential oils makes the cleaning
experience a pleasure.
Ingredients:
1 cup baking soda
2 tablespoons (or more) liquid Castile soap
2 teaspoons tea tree essential oil
1 teaspoon peppermint essential oil
1 tablespoon white vinegar
Blending Procedure:
1. Measure the baking soda into a bowl with a tight fitting lid.
2. Add approximately 2 tablespoons of liquid Castile soap. Mix well to
create a paste-like consistency. If you need more liquid soap to do this,
add it a little at a time until the mixture is like a paste --
Pliable but not soggy.
3. Once you have a consistency you feel like you can work with, add the
essential oils and mix well again. The addition of vinegar last helps to
boost the cleaning power.
4. To use, scoop out a little of the cleanser and use a sponge or other
cleaning tool to gently scrub your tub, shower and sink surfaces. A little
goes a long way and the antibacterial effect of tea tree gives you extra
peace of mind.
