Homemade Powders:
Simple body powders can be made by using 100% cornstarch, and mixing in 1/2 teaspoon essential oil per half cup of cornstarch.
Carpet deodarizers should be 100% baking soda.
Mix 1/2 cup baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon essential oil.
Foot powders and flea powders should consist of equal amounts of cornstarch and baking soda. If making a flea powder, use double the amount of essential oils for better flea control.
We provide 5 oz. powder shakers on this page for your convenience.
Massage oils and scrubs:
Massage oils are made simply by mixing 1/2 teaspoon essential oil into 4 ounces of carrier oil. You may purchase your carrier oils here.
To make a homemade sugar scrub or "body polish", in a small bowl, mix just enough of your massage oil into the sugar until it becomes a spreadable paste. You can substitute the sugar for Sea Salt or even table salt. (You may want to add a little more essential oil to the scrub, since the addition of the sugar may dilute the scent.)
You can easily make your own natural beauty products with these simple recipes. You can personalize your own products by scenting them with your choice of essential oils, or you can purchase our unique essential oil blends. Either way, making your own natural beauty products is simple and fun.
