Conventional mouthwash can be filled with questionable ingredients. This easy, cost effective DIY: Mouthwash is another way to use your oils, stay away from toxins, and keep your wallet happy.
DIY: Homemade Mouthwash
What You Need:
- A container to keep your mouthwash. I recommend a dark glass bottle if possible.
- 2 cups distilled or boiled water
- 10 drops essential oil/s of your choice. Feel free to use a combination of oils if you choose (my recommendations below).
How To:
- Simply mix the distilled/cooled boiled water with the 10 drops of essential oil in a bottle and you are done!
- To use: simply take a small sip, swish around and spit.
Cost Breakdown:
In this DIY there are only two costs, the container that you will hold your mouth wash and the essential oils. Because containers will vary I will show the cost breakdown for the essential oils instead.
