A few years back I attended a home, health and beauty seminar at Dr. Angela's office. I never knew or even thought about the fact that I eat clean food, gluten free, soy free, dairy free, I avoid corn and other products yet daily I could be putting these same things I don't want in my system on my body! Everything touches your skin and can be absorbed, laundry soap, lotion, deodorant, toothpaste, etc.Since then I have been making my own laundry soap. It's so easy. I know the 4 ingredients and what's in them. No chemicals, no dyes. Just something that gets my clothes clean and is safe for my skin. This past Christmas break, Brookie came home from school and asked me if I would help her make some laundry soap to take back to school, she noticed from the time she left in September until now that her skin was itchy and the only change she had made was using store bought laundry soap on her clothes.
So Jim whipped up a batch for us to share. The other thing I really like about this soap is the fact that it's literally dirt cheap!! I paid less than $10 for all of the ingredients and it will last me 3.5-4 months before I'll have to make it again.
Ingredients:6 cups Borax
4 cups baking soda
4 cups washing soda
2 bars Fels Naptha, grated
Mix all ingredients together and store in a large tub.
Use 2 Tbsp per load.
