The solid shampoo comes in the form of a pebble or a bar of soap.
And when rubbed with water, it lathers like soap!
It takes up less space and can be easily transported.
The solid shampoo is also zero waste, as it requires no plastic packaging.
The only concern is that homemade shampoo bars contain surfactants that can be dangerous for the skin...
Fortunately, here is the easy and quick recipe for solid shampoo without surfactants or aggressive SCI . Watch:
- 160 ml of coconut milk
- 80 g flake Marseille soap
- 60 g of aloe vera
- 1 teaspoon of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of argan oil
- 10 drops of peppermint essential oil
- 10 drops of lavender essential oil
- 10 drops of Atlas cedarwood essential oil
- 1 ice cube tray or soap molds
1. Melt the coconut milk, Marseille soap, aloe vera and vegetable oils together in a bain-marie.
2. Once the mixture is homogeneous, remove the bowl from the bain-marie.
3. Add the essential oils.
4. Pour the preparation into the soap moulds.
5. Put the molds in the freezer for 20 minutes to solidify the preparation.
6. Remove the mold from the freezer then carefully remove the shampoos from the mold.
7. Put them on a plate and let them air dry for 24 hours before using them.
There you go, your shampoo bar without aggressive surfactants for the skin is already ready :-)
