Say what? I used to love using skintastic and other foaming shave gel. As I moved more into natural products, understanding what i was putting on and in my body and taking care of me, I realized the undecipherable words and pressurized canisters were not the way I wanted to go. If you know we, you know most anything that comes into my house needs to have a second life before hitting the trash can. I keep all my Mrs Meyers bottles to either refill or for future uses. One of which is this amazing, ingredients that you can pronounce, shave cream.
I found this original here. I went thru a couple different versions and this was the best! It lathered up just enough to “see” what you were shaving! hahaah!
Shaving Lotion
Ingredients
- ½ Cup Oil (olive, grape seed, almond etc.)
- ¼ Cup Honey
- ¼ Cup Liquid, Castile Soap
- 10 Drops of Essential Oils (Optional)
Instructions
- Combine ingredients in a bowl and rapidly whisk for several minutes until all of the ingredients have fully emulsified.
- Transfer to a pump or squeeze bottle.
- A Little Goes A Long Way! You only need a pea-sized amount to create a nice lather!
Verdict:
I love this stuff! You can use different oils and flavors of castile soap.
I takes just a couple pumps, lather on your legs and the hair is shaved off!
Only con is the thickness of the cream can leave residue on the blade that takes a couple rinses to remove it.
If you try it, let me know which oil and what flavor of soap you tried and liked.
