Thank you so much for sharing this! I just combined this method with a recipe I found for creamy body wash (incorporating shea butter and a fast absorbing oil) and it came out so rich and exactly the texture I’ve been hoping to duplicate!
Careful with ylang ylang! It DOES cause headaches in some people. So, if you start getting headaches after using it, stop and use a different floral! That said, it’s also excellent for hormone balance and as an aphrodisiac… a very strong one!
You made this the other day and it came out extremely thick actually it was too thick to use. So I just experimented add extra Castile soap and vegetable glycerin then use my whipping blade to whip some air into it I loved the way it came out.
That was smart! Yeah these DIY recipes don’t always work the same for each person. I’m thinking it may have something to do with hard and soft, but I’m not sure.
Thank you for sharing. I love simple, limited ingredient recipes. I almost always use honey in my body washes. I love it! It has helped my skin tremendously. Depending on if it's winter or summer I use coconut oil and fractionated coconut oil, as well.
Hi Sara 😊 Hello from Oregon! I'm excited to get your book AND make this shower gel! I already have the Castile soap, essential oil and yes, I will definitely use the honey in this recipe 👍🍯 I'm brand new to your channel so I just wanted to thank you for this recipe and wish you well 😊
I just finished a diy body gel I made using a different recipe. It was nice, but I’m looking for a different scent and more lather. I can’t wait to try this one!
Thank you for sharing mine did not work with table salt it would not dissolve it boiling hot water, which I thought was very weird. So I tried sea salt which worked much better. It started clumping after adding the Castile soap, so I used mixer. It was a little more watery than I thought but soaped up really well in the shower.
This is by far the best body was I’ve ever made. It soaps up perfectly and I did the flowery scents and it smells amazing. Thank for sharing. I subscribed and am looking forward to more great DIY products.
@@susylopez9308 Hi! When I tried using Kosher Salt the first time I made this it clumped up like crazy. But when I used table salt it came out perfect. So yes, the type of salt makes a big difference in my experience. You might be able to just add some water back to your recipe and shake it up to make it work again.
@@MyMerryMessyGermanLife No. I tried adding water, table salt but it turned into a lard consistency. I ended up whipping it up and using it as a whipped soap Lol. I didn’t want to waste product. would love to add epsom salt, i need to find a way. I did make it with table salt and it came out perfect. Take salt is definitely the right ingredient.
Great for 1st timers, but I have several issues with it, 1st Glass in the Bathroom not a great idea. 2nd there is water in the recipe, if your not going to use it with 6wks, then you need a preservative or it's going to go moldy. Get yourself some Optiphen+ and add it to this recipe.
Terrible results. I've tried it twice and it starts off well, then separates after 2 days and you get nothing but a runny liquid, and when that has finished, a super thick sludge that has trouble coming out through the nozzle. In my opinion. This is a poor diy formula that, because it doesn't contain some type of stabilizer, it ends up both separating and disappointing. Even after I shake the heck out of it. I don't understand how there could be so many positive comments on something that just doesn't work.
I couldn’t resist giving this another try using table salt (which I guess is “fine” salt) and I’m delighted to report that it worked. Thanks again for getting back to me. 😀
@@yukikanegawa7470 nope, I've had the same issue. And you should too. No stabilizer and the thing just separates and becomes useless after a few days.
Can’t wait to try this recipe! I’m just now discovering Castile soap and all its uses! I was wondering how long this is good for sitting in the shower? I made a honey scrub before and realized after about a week it would get a different consistency so started making smaller batches. I was also wondering if it stays emulsified or tends to separate? I used to make hand soap and it would always separate from the water I could never get it to stay bonded. Thank you!
Exactly what I was searching for thank you so much! Also, in the video you mentioned you would put links to some pre-made all natural soaps from amazon in the video description but I can't seem to find them, would love to know if there are still any body washes on amazon you would recommend.
Love your recipes! I’m fairly new in making my own products,but would like to know if it’s necessary to use some type of preservative in this recipe? Thank you much .
Hi Joanna! If you want to add some rubbing alcohol to it you could. Also natural preservatives are sold on Amazon if you'd like to try those. But I've not had it go bad, even after a month or so.
Since water and oil don't mix, you should use a preservative even though honey is a preservative on its own but not when mixed with many other ingredients. There are many natural preservatives that you can use (optiphen for example) because it can mold.
Hello, I used the recipe exactly like in the video except, Your printed recipe called for a carrier oil- I used sweet almond. I tried it on my hands and they are very DRY. Did I do something wrong? Should I add something because I am AA (dark)? Maybe the aloe vera?
Dear Sara, Can you please let me know whether I can use melted glycerin soap with double boiler method instead of castile soap? 2. Can fresh aloe Vera water be used? 3. What is its shelf life without putting in fridge?
Hi! I’m honestly not sure about the glycerin - you could make a small batch to see? Fresh aloe Vera water I think would be fine. The shelf life is about 1-2 months.
Hi good day to you.. I hope you'll be able to read this.. I just want to ask if its OK for people suffering from Atopic Dermatitis??? Thank you.. Watching your vlog from the Beautiful Tropical country of the Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Can you use vegetable glycerin? I've tried this recipe numerous times and it remains liquidy. I'm trying to get like a shampoo consistency but it's too watered down Edit* I've tried many different recipes. Not sure what I'm doing wrong
The secret is in the salt, let the water and salt to sit for like 5 minutes before you put the Castile soap, it makes huge difference, and yes, you may use vegetable glycerin
I didn't get the same results. I used pink Himalayan sea salt, organic, raw & unfiltered neem honey. Pure therapeutic grade lavender oil. Water was boiling, added salt then castile soap. It didn't thicken. What went wrong? Pink salt? Neem honey?
Hi, I tried making this but mine turned out a bit too thick. I added 2 tbsp of honey as the recipe says below the video. I rewatched the video to see how yours turned out and you added 2 tsp of honey. That's probably my mistake now. Please tell me which measurement is correct. Also, please let me know how to thin it out so it can come out of my dispenser. Also, can I use an immersion blender to mix it all together? Have you tried it? Just curious. Thank you very much!
Is the water in your recipe plain tap water or distilled. Also, would I add Leucidal liquid sf or vitamin E oil for preservative? Enjoyed your video...thanks so much!
Hi & thank you for this video!!! I will definitely make it with the honey. I was looking for a DIY for an exfoliating hemp eucalyptus gel when your video popped up so… could this be made with thicker salt for exfoliating? & just add hemp seeds? Or is salt too rough? Thank you!!!
I was wondering if you have tried this recipe using other types of salt? Like pink Himalayan salt. I did try the recipe using pink Himalayan salt and it didn't thicken like a gel. My salt was fine and fully dissolved. I'll give it another try using the same salt you shared. Just wanted to see if you happened to test the recipe with other salts.
Can u use unscented castile soap..and add ur own fragrance or essential oils i went to order on amazon and i see mostly scented and im worried if i got a scented it would affect my scent..i see you used lavender..so does it matter wht scent yoy get..i was wondering wjy not just get unscented..cuz if i got lavender i worry it wont go with very many essential oils i want to use..this part confuses me im a newbie to making my own soaps and body wash
I made the shower gel for the first time. It was a little thin, and instead of waiting for it to thicken up on its own, I added more of the soap. I put it in a bottle. Unfortunately, a few hours later, it was way too thick. Can you tell me how (if possible) I can make the shower gel thinner. Your directions were great by the way.
Hey, I just followed your recipe and made this shower gel . I did not have the aloe vera but I did add the honey. I live in India and I had got the lemon essential oil from online. Even after adding 8 ml to this , it smells of caustic soda, not of lemon🍋.can you please suggest something to make it smell more lemony? What about adding natural citric acid or lemon zest?
I love that oil, too! And also, I always thought others were wrong when they pronounced Ylang Ylang as ee-lang ee-lang but I just looked it up on dictionary.com and see I was wrong! Thanks for letting me know.
I've been lioking for this type of video using castile soap and salt. I was wondering, does this not need any type of preservative? I'm just saying cause it's water based
Mine didn’t thiken up so well any thoughts. Boiling water first then salt then Castile soap. Is there something I can add after to fix thanks for video 😁
I only used on my hands to try out on my skin and felt some residue and very dry skin, I didn't have aloe vera, but added a tsp olive oil. What do you think caused it? FYI - Our water supply is on harder side.
Hi Sangita! Hmm, Castile Soap can feel drying to some people and it is based in olive oil so it can leave an oily residue, but that part is good for your skin.
Sure! I've not ever added turmeric to my beauty recipes - it'll likely color your shower or bath yellow and might be hard to clean. I would use dried rosemary, lavender, eucalyptus, chamomile, rose - something like those!
Hi, I made it but almost immediately when I added the castile soap it thicken it so much and looked like when the milk is bad. It separated the soap and water. Why did it get like that and how can I fix it. I don't want to throw it away.
This recipe is off somehow. Like you I tried it and when adding the Castile soap to the salt water it immediately became very thick almost to a butter like consistency. I didn't want to waste it so I mixed with a hand mixer with the rest of the ingredients and it came out like a body butter. I thinned it a little with some water and got a light, foamy body wash type consistency but it was so light it was a real pain to try and get it into a bottle. It works and lathers well but I already see that it's starting to separate. I guess I'll have to shake it up every time I use it 😅. I think it's the salt ratio that is off (too much salt). I'll try again when this batch finishes adding a little salt at a time till it's the right consistency and hopefully get it right.🤞
Hi thank you for all the recipe and couple things happen one I added a lot of YL E oils but some how the smell is not still good and as soon as I added the soap to the hot water it got solid and a bad smell I don’t know if Castile soap should not be added to boiling water maybe?

Oh wow, that sounds awesome! I love Shea Butter.
Hi there, I was wondering if you could share more detail about how much shea butter and the type/amount of oil you added to this recipe? :) thanks!
Can you send or post that recipe? I'd like to try it.
How do you stop the formula from separating from the honey? When I make this the honey sets at the bottom
Do you have to wait until the salt water is cold to add the cost or so? Mine didn’t turn into a gel
This is the thickest body wash recipe I've tried. Thanks. It actually works!
My water was boiling then used fine salt you recommended and it still didn’t dissolve and didn’t thicken. I still love.
Careful with ylang ylang! It DOES cause headaches in some people. So, if you start getting headaches after using it, stop and use a different floral! That said, it’s also excellent for hormone balance and as an aphrodisiac… a very strong one!
Yeah true - it does have a strong scent!
And the opposite of an aphrodisiac for the people with the headaches! 😂
Hi. Thank you so much for such wonderful recipe. Could you please tell how long is the shelf life of this gel?
I would absolutely use honey in my shower gel. This is super easy. I love this

Did it stay clear after whipping it?
Thank you for sharing. I love simple, limited ingredient recipes. I almost always use honey in my body washes. I love it! It has helped my skin tremendously. Depending on if it's winter or summer I use coconut oil and fractionated coconut oil, as well.

Hi there, I am wondering why has my shower gel gone white and very thick ? (Consistency of thick whipped cream) Claire x
How long will the body wash last since it have no preservatives ??
It has water and oil, I wouldn’t use it longer than a couple weeks. Made the same mistake with my first DIY soap.
Mine was thick not sure what happened can you till me
I would use sweet almond and grapeseed oil, will try a smaller amount of honey lol
That's fine. That's the beauty of these recipes - make them however you want!
does it go bad, eventully, if so how long does it last (without using the honey)?
Hello. Would any salt be good to use? I have sea salt, and the granules are a but bigger that mortons
Wonderful video...👍👍👍 Can i add turmeric or other herbs in this shower gel... Kindly reply
Sure! I've not ever added turmeric to my beauty recipes - it'll likely color your shower or bath yellow and might be hard to clean. I would use dried rosemary, lavender, eucalyptus, chamomile, rose - something like those!
Mam from india.good vedio,so please share a good quality castle soap recipe.🙏

Very interesting! Will try this one soon! 😍
How long does this recipe last?

Can you raw honey? We have a bee hive ,and we’re always looking for new ways to use it.
Thank you for this. But do we need natural preservatives too?
Yeah you could add them to make it last longer. Essential oils are supposed to act as a natural preservative, but I’ve never tested it to make sure.
Hi thank you for all the recipe and couple things happen one I added a lot of YL E oils but some how the smell is not still good and as soon as I added the soap to the hot water it got solid and a bad smell I don’t know if Castile soap should not be added to boiling water maybe?
Oh dear! I'm sorry it did that. Yes, maybe it's the reaction between the hot water and the Castile Soap.
What is the shelf life of the product.. Looks nice and simple
About one month, I'd say.
Thank you 🙏
You’re welcome 😊
does thick mean it will lather a lot
Yes, it's thick and it lathers very well!
Does using an exfoliant along with Castile soap guarantee a really good lather in your shower gel or body wash??
No an exfoliant won’t add lather. 😄
Do you have a shampoo recipe?
What is the Honey replacement for oily skin?
Is this normal table salt?
Can you use distilled water
Do I need to use a preservative?
Ma'am please tell me its shelf life... Do we need to put any preservatives?
Yeah the shelf life is about one month, so use a preservative if you want it to last longer. 😀
Himalayan salt.
Is it work ??
