Homemade Natural Dandruff Shampoo

We have one family member with eczema on the scalp and one family member with dandruff.  THIS shampoo works well for BOTH.

     Dandruff Shampoo

Combine all ingredients and put in the dispenser of your choice.  I use a pump because it is easier to use in the shower for the boys.  It only takes a small amount, just enough to cover and wash the scalp with.

Lavender Vanilla Body Scrub

Sometimes you just want that scrubbed clean, soothing feeling of a good ‘ole body scrub.  Well have no fear, I will tell you how to make your own.

     Lavender Vanilla Body Scrub

  • 1 c sugar (I used Raw Cane Sugar)
  • 1/2 c coconut oil
  • 1/2 t pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 t Vitamin E oil
  • 15 drops Lavender essential oil

Mix all ingredients in a bowl.  Stores for 2+ months right on your countertop.  Mmmm Mmmm smelling it now is making me want to go jump in the tub!

After using my mixture, I decided I really wanted to change the consistency.  I added 3T of baking soda, and am liking it much better :
