010: The Complete Beauty Products Template

Make 6 DIY personal care products at home, including lip balm, deodorant, non-petroleum jelly, hand and body lotion, shampoo + conditioner.

We don’t need half the name brand products the beauty industry tells us we need.

We don’t need their plastic packaging, toxic ingredients and hefty price tags, either.

When it comes to sustainability, frugality and holistic health, making DIY personal care products at home is the only choice. It’s quick and easy, too.

On this week’s episode, I give you everything you need to replace 6 commercial beauty products with all-natural, homemade ones. We’re making Lip Balm, Deodorant, Non-Petroleum Jelly, Hand + Body Lotion and Anti-Shampoo and Conditioner, all with 5 ingredients or less and under 30 minutes.
