DIY Shaving Solution

I'm not done yet! My goal is to make pretty much every cosmetic product I use as cheaply and easily as I can. And of course, to share it with you :)


What you need:
5 Tbs of your every day lotion
5 Tbs baby oil 
1 Cup shampoo
1 Cup conditioner
* optional* 1 tsp Vitamin E oil (Most pharmacies carry this- find it near the oral vitamin supplements)



What to do:
Mix it up in a big bowl and let it sit for an hour. Pour it into a pump bottle for easy use.

Tips and hints: You can substitute the baby oil with sesame oil- or any body oil you already have. Use any scent of lotion, shampoo, and conditioner that  you prefer OR use fragrance free and add a few drops of essential oils.  Use a recycled lotion bottle for your pump bottle- I did!

Why did I use my secret ingredient Vitamin E but not my other: Glycerin? Check out the ingredients list on your ingredients- most lotions and other beauty product contain Glycerin or Glycol. If yours don't feel free to substitute 1 Tbs of lotion with 1 Tbs of Glycerin.
