Did you know it's super easy to make a powerful foaming hand soap with just 3 ingredients?? What's even better is that you can make it have any scent you want! I, of course, use the Young Living Thieves blend in mine. I may switch it up a bit from time to time, but it's hard to beat Thieves!! This blend has Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon, Eucalyptus Radiata, and Rosemary, giving it a rich, spicy aroma. Add it to some liquid Castile Soap and boom, a powerful cleaning combo!

My family loves this soap! It doesn't dry out our hands (even though we are all being sure we properly wash them!), it smells wonderful, and it's an amazing combo for all sorts of goodness.
If you make this soap, please be sure to share with us your favorite essential oil combos to use.

Germs...they are everywhere! It's fairly common to see some sort of sanitizing wipes everywhere you go to wipe down hands, shopping carts, everything! But, did you know that if there are yucky ingredients in those products, you may be weakening your immune system instead of helping it? Do yourself, and your loved ones, a favor and research the products you use.
I have done my research and found a product I not only trust, but it also works wonderfully, saves me money and is so versatile it can be used everywhere! So, what is this product? Thieves Household Cleaner...yep, it's amazing! I have used it EVERYwhere....dishwasher, laundry, bathroom, windows...the list goes on.
What's my favorite way to use it? I'm glad you asked! I love making thieves wipes. I usually make them disposable, however, I have used the same recipe with t-shirt squares for a washable option.
