Hi Vanessa,
I just wanted to tell you that I love this body wash. I have VERY sensitive skin, and have tried every body wash on the market for sensitive skin … and they all make me itch and break out in hives. I stumbled across your page the other day, and thought … I should give this a try. What have I got to lose, right?

I live in a small town, so I had to order the ingredients online, and also ordered three, 32oz plastic dispenser bottles to put it in (pretty ones, in cobalt blue with both squeeze dispenser lids as well as pumps!)
So… the ingredients arrived, and I excitedly shredded my soap. I actually bought 4oz bars of Kirk’s unscented castile soap, since I’m sensitive to perfumes. I adjusted the amount of water down to accommodate the smaller bar of soap, and used a touch less glycerin. Once everything was mixed, I put a lid on the pan and sat it aside for 24 hours. Much to my disappointment, after 24 hours, I found myself with what visually appeared to be nothing more than a pan of water. No milkiness, no bubbles, no nothing. I had what you might call a “grumpy face.”

Then I remembered reading that several people encountered the same problem, and you’d suggested placing it in the refrigerator … so that’s what I did. Overnight.
Yeah. And the next morning I had a milky, slimy, solid chunk of … something really disgusting in my pan. I made another grumpy face.
Then I remembered someone mentioning something about using their hand mixer to break up their slimy chunk, so I thought … I wonder how my blender would work. Bwah-ha-ha.
I cut my big slimy chunk into smaller slimy chunks, and slid them into my blender (which was really gross) and then hit the button.
Oh… my… goodness. Eureka!

The result was a light, frothy, rich and creamy, milk-white liquid that was absolutely lovely. It actually reminded me of a thick vanilla milkshake, and I came really close to licking my fingers a couple times as I was slowly pouring it into my beautiful cobalt blue dispenser bottles (available on Amazon, 3 for $15.69.) Of course, I couldn’t wait to take a shower and try it out, so I quickly ran outside and furiously planted a flat of purple petunias in my yard … just so I could get dirty.
The body wash is WONDERFUL. It’s thick and creamy, and lathers just enough so that it feels like I’m actually scrub-a-dub-dubbing with commercial “sudsy” soap (we’re so programmed to respond to bubbles). It washed away nicely, and afterwards my skin felt soft, smooth and clean. It was very nice. No grumpy face to be seen anywhere.
It’s too early to tell how my skin will like it over time (I’m so sensitive!), but so far … I love it.
Thank you for sharing your recipe. I don’t normally follow blogs, but I’ve bookmarked yours … because you got rid of my itchy skin (and my grumpy face.)
Right on, girl!
