That was so simple! Other channels are so complicated by using elmosifers and glycerin and so many other ingredients, it's many ingredients. This I can do! Thank you!
I found this come up on my phone today and I'm so thankful for this I'm going to try this recipe. I love Castile soap and so I'm excited to try it with the oil. I deal with dry skin and here in Minnesota during the winter it's extremely dry so this will be fun to try
Wow, love it. I too, don't like the idea of honey in a wash, just like it in food. I'm going to add eucalyptus oil. I'm also thinking of adding sea salt for a scrub too Thanks for the great recipe. Be blessed!
Thanks! I'm on a fixed income, but I've learned this would be cheaper and very safe for myself in the long run. BTW, I love the smell of cinnamon, cocoa & coconut! So appreciate your post! 👏🙃🤞🍀 Wish me luck! Great job! 😊
This is excellent. Simple, but seems luxurious. Thank you again, Anja. (I made a bottle for a girlfriend who is coming to visit and added peppermint oil. ) Stay well.
This is great! And you can adjust the amount of oil depending on your skin and the weather. Do you find you don’t need to moisturize as much when you use this?
Yes! You can absolutely play with the ratios. Most of the time I only wash my face, my armpits, and my private parts with this body wash and I haven't needed a moisturizer. Hope this helps 😊 ~ Anja
Oh omg is this good for face as well????? I have super dry sensitive type skin. Is this good for skin? Also do you have an all natural sunscreen for sensitive skin? Thanks
I want to try this! Thanks for sharing! What is the shelf life? Is a preservative needed? I have sensitive skin so I'm wondering if I can use this. Thanks so much!
I am so glad you like this body wash and it is good for sensitive skin! I am not sure how long it lasts because we go through it so quickly but definitely more than 3 months 😊 ~ Anja
While I have never made this with coconut oil, I am sure it's worth a try. I just find jojoba oil easy to use since it has no smell, is liquid even below 70 degrees and is very similar to the human sebum. Hope this helps!
@@OurGabledHome thank you for replying.. This is the simplest body wash I found here in TH-cam.. I'm worried it might be too oily but I learned that Jojoba is the perfect oil for our skin and its not oily feel... So I will try your half by half mixture and I will let you know how was it... Again, thank you.. God bless and More Power to your channel.. From Albay, Bicol, Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭 BTW, I'm allergic to Aloe Vera.. Its itchy for me.. I don't know why...
@@rosaliesolanonunez9294 I tried 16 oz of castille soap and 16 oz. jojoba oil and it turned into a yellow goop that won't pump. I think I'll try the 3/4 castille and 1/4 jojoba.
Can you please show us how to make this in the bar form. I love the bar it lasts much longer. And how to make laundry detergent please and thank you!!!
Yes, there will be a bar soap recipe soon! For the laundry detergent, check out this video: th-cam.com/video/wd5Y54omXmo/w-d-xo.html Happy making 😊 ~ Anja
Hi . I am a new subscriber , found your lovely channel because of Mary @ Mary's Nest . Your body wash sounds great but I am concerned about slipping in the shower also will all that oil have a negative impact on plumbing ? Thank you !
Hi Yvonne, I am so glad you like my videos! I have had this body wash for years and have never slipped. There is enough liquid soap in it. We also have no problems with our plumbing - and we live in a 1910 home. Hope this helps and thank you so much for your comment 💛 ~ Anja
Unfortunately Castile soap doesn’t work well if you have hard water and leaves a film all over your body . I can use a cotton swap with hitch hazel afterwards and it take of a black film . I’ll uses the jojoba oil and see. Thanks
Do you think organic castor oil would work? I had read somewhere that it was good for dry skin I think as a body wash with baby soap it would spread better Seems to be thick on its own Thank you
@@OurGabledHome Made this today 😊 SO lovely and silky. My foaming bottle that I have is not liking to work with me so I will go on the hunt for a bottle that will, this does not stop me from enjoying what does come out of the bottle, even my husband who is hesitant to try 'new things' thought this was really nice and mentioned that he might use some in the shower so I would know what was happening to the level in the bottle 🤣
I hope that I understand your question correctly: are you asking if it's cheaper to make bar soap or liquid body wash? If that's the case, I am not sure what the answer is. It would mostly depend on where you get your ingredients and the quantities. I get a very big bottle of castile soap which will be less expensive per oz than a smaller one. Hope this helps 😊 ~ Anja
Castile soaps destroys my skin. Many years ago when I started making natural body care products and cleaning my home and laundry with all natural ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, peroxide and such, I tried the baby castile soap and it also destroys my skin. I'm not sure why.
Thank you for a simple recipe!! So many of the other videos on here require so many products and I can't afford all of them!
Simple is one of my tag lines ... I am so glad you like this body wash recipe 💛 ~ Anja
Fabulous! And so simple! That's what I love about you...you make things simple and effective...love love it!!❤️
Aww ... thank you so much! Yes, I love making things simple 😍 ~ Anja

Right? Still what I use every day. It also works great as make-up remover 😊 ~ Anja
@@OurGabledHome What? A makeup remover 🤯 WHOA! GAME CHANGER!!! Thanks for that info!!! GOOOOLD!!!
@@IAmLeePeace Let me know how you like it!
@@OurGabledHome 😃 will do! Thank you again!
I made this and my skin has never been so soft! Thank you 😃🙏
Nice! That is why it's still my favorite body wash after all these years 😊 ~ Anja

Olive oil and lemon juice.

Hi Patricia, I am so happy to hear you like this body wash as much as we do!! What a nice gift for your friend 💛😊💛 ~ Anja
How fantastic! Your recipe, is just what I needed! Thank you for posting! 👍🏆👍⭐
Yeah ... I am so glad you like this! Thank you for your nice comment!
I make my own as well. Honey is for lather, and you only need a drop in that bottle any more, and you will have a residue.
Nice and thank you for sharing 👍 ~ Anja
Today's project!! I can't wait!
Nice! Have fun and enjoy 😊
Thank you, I like simple.
Thank You so much for sharing this, so simple and easy to make.

Most people use coconut oil, whats the difference between jojoba and coconut oil when u mix it in castile soap?
While I have never made this with coconut oil, I am sure it's worth a try. I just find jojoba oil easy to use since it has no smell, is liquid even below 70 degrees and is very similar to the human sebum. Hope this helps!
Wii be definitely trying this
Hope you will try it 😊 ~ Anja
Hello good day to you can I do 3/4 Castile soap 1/4 Jojoba? I love this so simple 2 ingredients only
Sure, that would be great, although maybe not quite as creamy.

I got a loofah type bath mat & all my fears of slipping in the shower ended!
Unfortunately Castile soap doesn’t work well if you have hard water and leaves a film all over your body . I can use a cotton swap with hitch hazel afterwards and it take of a black film . I’ll uses the jojoba oil and see. Thanks
Can you use EVO as an alternative to Jojoba oil?
I wouldn't see a reason why not. You can just mix up a small amount and see how you like it.
Do you think this would work well as a shaving gel too?
Yes! In fact, I use it for shaving all the time 💛 ~ Anja
@@OurGabledHome Awesome, amazing how it really gels together!
Could you come out with some simple, cost effective , natural body scrub recipes and lotion?
Sounds great and I will keep that in mind for future videos 😊 ~ Anja
Hi I'm just curious would I be able to use any Castile soap or would it have to be the baby one
Hi Sara, I love using Dr Bronner's unscented but you can use any castille soap for this recipe 😊 ~ Anja
Do you think organic castor oil would work? I had read somewhere that it was good for dry skin I think as a body wash with baby soap it would spread better Seems to be thick on its own Thank you
Hi Debra, I haven't tried it with castor oil but you could mix it with jojoba oil so it is not quite as thick. Hope this helps 😊 ~ Anja
@@OurGabledHome Thank you That is a good suggestion 😀
Castor oil can promote hair growth.
@@OurGabledHome Anja Thank you I decided jojoba oil would be the better choice 😁
Can i use ordinary organic castille liquid
Yes!
I now have the ingredients and will be making this maybe tomorrow if it is not too hot here. Looking to 35C ack!
Hi Kerry, sounds great! Happy making and stay cool (35˚C is seriously hot!!!) 💛 ~ Anja
@@OurGabledHome Made this today 😊 SO lovely and silky.

Great video. Thanks. Where can I find the pump bottle in your hand?
Oh, that's a reused bottle from a Dr. Hauschka product but you can find other pump bottles in stores and online 😊 ~ Anja
@@OurGabledHome Thanks for your quick reply. Much appreciated.
is liquid or bar body wash cheaper to make?
I hope that I understand your question correctly: are you asking if it's cheaper to make bar soap or liquid body wash? If that's the case, I am not sure what the answer is. It would mostly depend on where you get your ingredients and the quantities. I get a very big bottle of castile soap which will be less expensive per oz than a smaller one. Hope this helps 😊 ~ Anja
Does the oil and Castille separate?
Sometimes a little bit. Just give it a good shake then!
Castile soaps destroys my skin. Many years ago when I started making natural body care products and cleaning my home and laundry with all natural ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, peroxide and such, I tried the baby castile soap and it also destroys my skin. I'm not sure why.
That is interesting. Best to stay away from castile soap then 😌 ~ Anja
What is suppose to be ileminated in your ingredients if I used sour
Many commercial body washes contain unhealthy ingredients ~ Anja
I thought you had to dilute the Castile soap because it’s concentrated
Here's the full blog post to guide you: ourgabledhome.com/simple-2-ingredient-body-wash/😊 ~ Anja
I used 16 oz. of castille soap and 16 oz of jojoba oil and it turned into a yellow goop that won't pump out of my bottle!
@@OurGabledHome Your link doesn't work.
You don't use water at all in your formulation???
Correct. Only liquid castile soap and jojoba oil. It's very creamy and you only need a little bit 😊 ~ Anja
I love to dilute my Dr. Bronners!! It's very concentrated. So a little goes a LONG way!!!
Can you please tell about the Shelf life of this body wash?
I have had it for months but I usually make an amount that I go through in less time than that
There are no herbs or anything in it, so I would think the shelf life of the body wash would be the same as the shelf life of the jojoba oil.
Thankyou for the recipe, but please dont waste water!!
Waste water?
Merci !
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your support 💛 ~ Anja
