Homemade antiseptic wipes
2 cups water
1 cup rubbing alcohol (at least 70% strength or if you just want to clean and not necessarily disinfect you can use vinegar
1 tbsp liquid detergent or washing up liquid
Micro fibre cloths
A large air tight jar, spray bottle, or size you’d like to use
6 drops lavender oil
Double or triple these amounts to make as much as you’d like.
Submerge cloths in liquid, secure lid and shake.
Take out and use one at a time, or spray mixture and use cloths to clean surfaces.
DIY cleaning wipes
The recipe below is not necessarily antibacterial and germ fighting, rather primarily focused on cleaning surfaces.
1 glass jar
4 cups warm water
2 tbsp. castile soap
10 drops lemongrass essential oil
10 drops lavender essential oil – or any other combo of oils you desire
Reusable cloth wipes
Method:
- Add 1/2 your water to the glass container
- Add your soap
- Add 10 drops of each oil and mix well
- Cut your reusable wipes in half
- Roll each one up and put into your container standing up as seen in pics above
- Add the rest of your water
- Close the lid tightly and shake well
- Use, rinse, put back into container and reuse over and over again!
I will be trying one of these out this weekend, they look great!
