5 soap nuts (available here)
3 cups of water
5 drops lavender essential oil (optional)
Instructions
If you have one, place soap nuts in a small muslin bag.
Place in a medium saucepan with 2 cups of the water and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
Add 1 cup of water and simmer for 10 more minutes.
Remove from heat and let cook.
Squeeze out the bag until it suds. Rinse with cool water and squeeze in to the pan again.
Store in a glass jar in the fridge until use.
Notes
To use: Massage a small amount in to hair and let sit for 5 minutes. Rinse well. Can also be used as a soothing wash for skin, especially in those with eczema and psoriasis.
