Homemade Baby Wash Recipe
Baby skin is so gentle, smooth and radiant naturally. It is preferred not to wash it at all as it contains natural oils to protect it. I did wash my babies with only water and also used some gentle soaps here and there. I made this recipe for my monthly DIY swap with a group of my girlfriends. One of the ladies is pregnant and we chose a baby DIY theme. This recipe is very gentle and perfect to wash off the smelly cheesy baby throw up.
I like to use mostly edible ingredients in all my DIY. I love the softness the coconut milk gives to this baby wash. I even tried it as a face wash for myself and I think it’s one of the best face wash I have ever created. Who said you will spend more $$ making DIY?. I totally think the opposite as this example of a baby wash is going beyond it’s original purpose, therefore it saves me money.
Here are some benefits of coconut milk for mommy beauty
- Natural Make-Up Removal: Mix two parts of coconut oil to one part of coconut milk. This will help remove the make-up and moisturize the skin.
- Helps Curing Sunburn: Apply coconut milk on the affected area. It will not only moisturize the area, get ride of redness, but soothe the pain as well.
- Hair Conditioning: Mix free tablespoons of coconut milk with an egg yolk and massage it onto the inner roots of the scalp. Wrap your hair in a towel and leave it for a few hours. This acts as a wonderful deep moisturizing tonic for your hair.
- Skin Moisturizer: Have coconut milk or apply it on the skin. It helps both ways to gain smooth skin texture.
- Wrinkle-Prevention: Coconut milk has high levels of Vitamin C and Copper that reduce wrinkles and improve skin elasticity.
