What did you learn by making your own cleaning products? What is the biggest difference in making vs buying?
I found it's very easy to make your own cleaners. Today, I made a gerneral all purpose spray cleaner; bathroon cleaner, foam handsoap and room spray (forgot to include in my picture) Hand Soap recipe for 80z container: 2 tbsp unscented castile soap, , 1tbsp carrier oil (I used jojobja oil); 1tsp vitamin E oil, and added essentils oils of your choice (I used rosemarty, lemo & lavendar) amd fill with distilled water leaving space at top.
Shared my participation in our July Plastic-Free EcoChallenge on my FB page...a great way to remind others that we can all take small actionable steps everyday to reduce our environmental impact ….small actions matter!
