what kind of natural Liquid soap do you use to make hot pepper spray for your plants?
if I need soap it’s either a bar of Ivory that has been soaking in a little water in a jar …. or Murphy’s Oil soap or Baby shampoo…. never a dish detergent or one with grease cutters and heavy fragrance or bleach or antibacterials….. plants don’t react well to those…. a SOFT soap… Fels Naptha, Dreft, Ivory, Lemon JOY without additives…. NOT Dawn…. too much stuff in that one….
What’s the best NATURAL soap bar for sensitive, fair, acne prone skin?
I have slight acne on my chest and neck, leading up to my chin. I’ve been using dove for quite a while, but I find it leaves too much of a residue on my skin, and I want something with more natural ingredients,
but something that I can buy at the drugstore, preferably under $8. (I’m on a budget!!)
My skin is EXTREMELY sensitive and natural ingredients treat it best.
Recommendations?
use the Clearly natural soap use the unscented or Aloe vera this are
great for oily skin & sensitive skin this are natural organic you find at
Whole foods stores it cost $2 bucks are great this will clear up your
skin natural and gently.
Tips for Natural Skin Care
Our skin is the reflection of our health and vitality, physical, mental and emotional wellness. A radiant and glowing skin indicates good health, positive attitude and vibrates self-confidence. On the other hand, a dull and blemished skin shows an unhealthy body, stressful lifestyle and carelessness towards one’s own personality.
Who doesn’t want to look good, and good looks start with good skin. You may think it’s not such a big issue; there are several products in the market to make the skin beautiful and glowing in a jiffy. But as you use them, you must also be realizing that it is not so. These cosmetic products produce temporary effects on skin, have lots of side effects, and are very costly and not suited to all skin types. Then, what’s the way out? Here’s where we come to our topic of discussion, to care for the skin in a natural way that is natural skin care.
Natural skin care is not just about using skin products produced without chemicals; it’s an ongoing process of a result of a healthy life-style, right diet and off-course right skin products to be applied directly.
First of all, natural way of caring for skin starts with some life-style changes we need to take care of. Getting enough sleep: ‘Beauty sleep’ is not just a saying; its meaning goes far beyond that. As the rest of the body, for healthy skin, sleeping adequately is a must. At least 7 – 8 hours of sleep (hours vary for person to person), ensures a relaxed mind and body, normal blood flow, takes care of all wear and tear during the day, energizes you and brings the glow back in the morning. Dark circles around the eyes, blotchy skin, and lifeless appearance of face are all side effects of not getting enough sleep. So switch off that TV, log-off your laptop, and get from the party on time to catch a good night’s sleep.
Get Moving: Now that you’ve got enough sleep, its time for some exercises as well. Be active, walk, jog, exercise, hit the gym, do stretches during office hours too, take the stairs, do anything to keep moving. Inactivity affects the skin by promoting bloating and puffiness, cellulite and loss of muscle tone. Exercise also helps us to relax and de-stress, both necessary for a healthy skin.
Drink lots of water: Water helps to detoxify the body’s system, bathes the cells, eliminates waste products, help in digestion, purify blood and the list goes on and on. The point is to have at least 2 liters of water a day, avoid carbonated and sweetened drinks and have fresh juices and soups as additional source of fluids.
For a shiny and smooth skin, drinking honey mixed in warm water in the morning helps a lot. Secondly, natural way of caring for skin by eating right.
Let’s discuss some basic points:
Have lots of fiber: Eating food that is rich in fiber help a good digestion and constipation is totally taken care of. This eliminates the root of many skin problems like acne, psoriasis, spotty skin etc. we must have lots of fruits, fresh veggies, whole grains, and salad. The idea is to cut on processed food and fast food because these contain almost no fiber. Eating things in their natural form is the mantra to get the most benefit out of it.
Cut on excess sugar: The more we take sugar, the more sugar enters our bloodstream. Over some time, this results in a process where the glucose molecules damages protein molecule by sticking to it. This causes damage in collagen, cartilage and ligament, thus forming wrinkles. So, the next time, you are adding the second spoon of sugar to your tea/ coffee or going to bite on your favorite sweet…think again!!
Get some good fats: These are the fats needed to build cells, membrane, hormones etc. Lack of the good fat can lead to eczema, acne and dry skin. The sources to get these fats are cold-water fish, walnut oil, flaxseed oil, nuts; also you can try fish oil supplements.
Apart from these basic dietary requirements, we need to have a balanced diet containing Vitamins, Minerals, Proteins, Fats, all essential ingredients which comprises an adequate diet. This is absolutely vital for a healthy body and mind along with a smooth, glowing skin.
Last but not the least, we come to the most interesting part of out discussion. Natural skin care products, to be applied regularly for best results. According to the classic definition of natural skin care products, these are products found and used in their natural or raw form without any chemicals and manufactured in such a way so as to preserve the integrity of the ingredient.
There are many products, which can be bought from the market, manufactured by reputed companies. But best is to spend a little time and prepare some easy recipes for taking care of common skin problems and daily cleansing and toning.
Skin Care Tips:
· Stop using soap on your face (if possible, on body also). Use gram flour and milk to make a paste. Apply it gently and rub a little, then wash off with water. Believe me, it’s much better that any soap!!
· Massage body with mustard oil 10 minutes before bath, and then take a warm bath. Your skin will be moisturized and smooth.
· Massage your body with milk. Milk moisturizes your skin naturally.
· For daily cleansing, mix sandal wood powder with rose water and add 4-5 drops of milk in it, then apply on face and body. After 10 minutes, take a warm bath.
· Warm honey and mix with lemon juice, then apply on face. Let it dry, and then wash off with warm water. It refreshes and cleanses your skin.
· For preparing natural bleach, mix lemon juice in milk. Then massage it on your face and body. It bleaches you skin naturally.
· To remove sun-tan, mix cucumber juice with tomato juice, rub on skin, wash off with cold water.
· Mix milk cream with flour, apply that paste on to your skin, then wash off to get a smooth skin.
These are the basic ways of caring for skin naturally. The glow and radiance that comes with the natural care practice is for all to see and is everlasting. Just remember: Beauty is not skin deep…still it starts with the skin!!

ingredients for an all natural soap without lye?
im looking to make an all natural soap without using lye, can anyone give me the ingredients?
I’m the owner of The Natural Bar Soap Company, on line, and make all of our soaps. In order to make your own soap, completely from scratch, you will need to use lye. Oils need to react with lye in order to "saponify" (become soap) through a chemical process called "saponification." Without lye, oils remain oils.
If you want to skip using the lye yourself, you can purchase all natural "Melt & Pour" soap base (google it, and be sure to get all natural) and add additional ingredients such as herbs, clay, etc., to "make" your own version of all natural soap. However, you won’t have as much control this way, as to which oils, and how much of them, are in your finished products.
Lye, although unfamiliar to many people, sounds worse than it really is. With proper safety precautions such as latex gloves and goggles, you can safely use lye. I made my first batch of soap in college, after hearing a lecture in an organic chemistry class. Now I’m addicted! Lye can be bought on line, relatively inexpensively, and with a properly calculated recipe, your soaps will be amazingly gentle, moisturizing, and cleansing, without all the synthetic "junk" found in many commercial soaps.
Hope this was helpful!! Good luck!

Is ok to wash apples and tomatoes with GreenWorks natural dish soap?
Hiya Paranormal Kitty!
It would’nt hurt if you clean those two veggie with that type of soap.
Just make sure that you rinse them off really good under cold water,
and wipe them dry with a clean dish towel.
Yeah, paper towel. Good answer, let’s cut down some more trees
to dry the just organically cleaned veggies; that makes real sense.
Follow your heart, it’ll tell what’s right and what’s wrong.
Mother earth is always talking to everyone’s heart,
just many don’t or refuse to listen.
Peace to you.

Pick a name that is available on the web, short, and easy to remember. If your company is not on the internet nowadays, it may as well not exist.
Make sure the .com, .org, and .net suffixes are available so you can glom onto them all at once.
For this name all the suffixes are available.

Aromatherapy Soap – More Than Just A Nice Smell
Aromatherapy soap can be used in the shower or bath to create a rejuvenated or relaxed. The great thing about these soaps is that they contain therapeutic oils from plants and herbs.
A therapeutic aromatherapy soap is made from natural ingredients so it is gentle on the skin and excellent for reducing acne. It’s also excellent for dry skin. In fact harsh soaps can actually be the cause of dry skin. Aromatherapy soap is also an excellent choice for sensitive skin. Try lavender.
Rosemary mint is an aromatherapy soup with rosemary and spearmint that can be used by either women or men. It’s a nice choice if you are looking for a rejuvenated feeling when you’re done in the shower. Add a little rose for women.
If you want a sensual aromatherapy soap that’s perfect for an evening with the love of your life try patchouli, rose, and geranium. It’s also a good choice for dry skin. In fact if you want a soap strictly for dry skin replace the rose with hemp seed oil.
If you’ve managed to get a sunburn use peppermint and aloe vera aromatherapy soap. It also brings relief for insect bites too. If you want relief from your sunburn and a soap that’s calming try lemon poppy seed with peppermint. It’s a great combo.
If you want an aromatherapy soap for sensitive skin or skin eczema try a lavender or lavender and hemp oil combination. You want to stay away from floral scents if you have sensitive skin as this is likely to be an irritatant.
There are plenty of other aromatherapy soaps on the market but what’s important is that you purchase an aromatherapy soap made from all natural ingredients because products that have artificial or unnatural ingredients won’t produce the same results.
Read carefully! Too many like to advertise their soap as natural and then in the fine print you’ll find chemicals used to preserve it. That is not what you want. And if you aren’t sure don’t be afraid to ask.
You can buy your aromatherapy soap locally or for the best selection check what’s available online. There are so many great choices. Many of the soaps sold online are home made an added bonus!
You will likely pay a little more for your aromatherapy soap but it’s worth it. There is no other soap that can produce the results of these natural soaps.
If you want you can make your own aromatherapy soap. It’s really quite easy. What’s most important is that you have all natural ingredients to work with. Poor quality ingredients and your soap will crack or break. You an buy aromatherapy soap molds and ingredients online and then you can some fun making your own soap. Once you get real good you could even make some soap gifts.
Aromatherapy soap is a great way to take that boring shower and turn it into something extraordinaire. It’s a great way to take that relaxing bath and make it a spa experience. So what are you waiting for?
