Pine Needle Foam Soap

White Pine Foam Soap

• 60 ml (1/4c) castile soap
• 30 drops Pine Needle essential oil (Pinus)

Combine the castile soap and essential oils in the bottle and shake well. You’re done!  This recipe only makes 2oz or 1/4 cup. 

We recommend starting with the above recipe to see if you like the soap.  The average commercial pump soap bottle is 8oz. If so you can triple which will almost fill at cleaned commercial pump soap bottle.  We believe in recycling everything.

There is a reason that a lot of natural cleaners smell like conifer essential oils—the conifers are great at getting rid of germs! This is true of Pine and its friends in the conifer group, like Hemlock (Tsuga canadensis), Balsam Fir (Abies balsamea), and Black Spruce (Picea mariana).

Here is a list of essential oils you can use for disinfecting and cleaning:  

• Cinnamon Essential Oil 
• AB Protection Essential Oil Blend
• Thyme Essential Oil
• Tea Tree Essential Oil
• Oregano Essential Oil
• Peppermint Essential Oil
• Eucalyptus Essential Oil
• Clove Essential Oil
• Lemon Essential Oil

Hydrosols & Floral Waters

What is a Hydrosol?

A hydrosol, also known as a plant water, hydrolat, essential water, and herbal distillate is the liquid byproduct of steam distilling an essential oil. Hydrosols have many of the same therapeutic benefits as essential oils, but are much gentler and have a softer aroma than essential oils.

In other words, it is the water that is distilled with essential oils. When the steam from the distilled water passes through the plant material, it takes with it the volatile oils from the plant. The two travel through the tube at the top of the steam vessel (typically copper) and down through the condensing tube. Once the water and oil have separated, the essential oil is siphoned off the top and what you have left is the hydrosol.

Hydrosols are moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, mildly antiseptic, and are a wonderfully fragrant addition to skin care. Due to their benevolent nature, hydrosols offer a myriad of treatment possibilities when essential oils might be too strong.

Our Hydrosol's are currently available in Rose & Lavender 2oz Spray, 2oz Refill, 4oz Refill & 8oz Refill.

Can be used as the liquid in any of our Clay Masks!

DIY Eyelash Serum

I've been asked several times about eyelash serum.  So I've done research and we now offer Organic Castor Oil (comes with a lash brush).

Basically you'll brush your lashes and make sure the roots have a light coating (the part touching the eyelid).  But for the more adventerous we have found a basic recipe:

1 tsp Organic Castor Oil
1 tsp Emu Oil (you can use Organic Almond Oil from grocery store)
1/2 tsp Organic Coconut Oil
10 drops Vitamin E (about 2 capsules)

Mix all ingredients and store in a small dropper bottle or air tight container.

To use, squeeze one drop on to your finger or a cotton swab and gently massage into lash line. I prefer to do this at night to let it work overnight before washing my face in the morning.

Use daily for best results.

TIP: This can also be used on eyebrows to help with thinning eyebrows.
This will last up to a year as long as it is kept in an air tight container and not contaminated with a liquid. You can wash lash brush in hot soapy water and let air dry.

Gemstone Roller
