Highlighting Shampoo - A Natural Shampoo Recipe.
For this highlighting shampoo recipe, you choose which herb
you would like to use in it.
1/2 cup Water
1/3 cup Fresh chamomile, lavender, or rosemary
1/2 cup Milk shampoo or liquid castile soap
2 Tbsp. Glycerin
To Make This Highlighting Shampoo: Mix water and herbs together in saucepan and heat to make strong infusion. Steep
for at least 20 min. and then strain. Add shampoo and glycerin to the herbal
water, stirring well. Pour shampoo into bottle and let mixture sit overnight to
thicken. Makes 8 oz.
Castile soap is made from 100 percent
olive oil and is used to soften and moisturize the skin. Castile can be
found at health food stores, some drug stores, craft stores or major
department stores. Glycerin is a gentle moisturizer that is
available in clear and opaque. Glycerin can also be found at health food stores,
some drug stores, craft stores or major department stores.
Here's a quick,
inexpensive and easy packaging idea for your natural shampoo recipe: Removing labels off empty glass jars.
Relish jars, olive jars and baby food jars all work well. Spray paint the
lids with a granite spray. Shampoo packaged in a cobalt bottle or a brushed
aluminum bottle always presents well. Or, place your natural shampoo recipe
in decorative bottles. For an added touch, write the recipe on a little card
and tie the recipe onto the bottle with ribbon or raffia.
