10+ Non-Toxic DIY Beauty Replacements!!!

DIY Eyelash Grow- with Essential Oils

I was spending about $70 every couple months on lash serum to boost my eyelashes. I knew it wasn’t all-clean organic products but I could honestly not quit!! If I went a week or two without it, I swore my lashes would shrink. Well I finally found a replacement to my expensive eyelash serum! And I am in LOVE with this DIY Eye Lash Serum! Works just as well and actually better. It is a combination of essential oils and organic castor oil that is food for my lashes! Castor oil helps by encouraging hair growth from the follicles that have become dormant. According to an article on Stylegraze- “when we apply them to lashes and eyebrows, all these factors contribute to stimulating blood circulation in skin, especially around the eyes.” Get the easy recipe below and see my results! ***Young Living has a new lengthening and volumizing mascara that I LOVE!!!

Ingredients

  

• Organic pure Castor oil
• Empty clear mascara tube
• 6 Lavender essential oil
• 6 Cedarwood essential oil
• 6 Rosemary essential oil

Instructions

 

• In your empty clear mascara tube, fill approximately 3/4 of the way full with the organic castor oil. 
  
• Add your essential oils to the tube. (I did top off my jar with castor oil, be careful not to overfill, since you have to have space for the wand to go in).
• Apply DIY lash boosting serum to eyelashes daily at night, after you clean off your makeup 

Notes

Rosemary is another essential oil you could add to the mix or instead of.

Be careful not to get the serum in your eyes.

You can start with one drop each of essential oil if you are concerned about the amount. I personally have been fine using about 12-15 drops total with my castor oil

Natural Teeth Whitener with Essential Oils

This is a pretty basic DIY. But life changing if you have sensitive teeth and do not want to whiten your teeth the traditional way with carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide. Simply add a drop of orange essential oil right to my tooth paste, every day! It actually tastes great and has whitened my teeth! Or wintergreen and peppermint are good options too! Essential oils may help whiten your teeth because the chemicals contained in certain oils are sufficiently powerful to remove nasty stains on the teeth. Some essential oils contain compounds like limonene which is a natural whitening agent that can work on both the skin and the teeth. As well as lightening your teeth, many essential oils have powerful antibacterial properties that make them a good, natural choice for preventing tooth decay or gum infection and they can even help leave your breath smelling better for longer. YES!!

I also use Young Living Whitening Toothpaste, LOVE it. Free of additives and is, again, plant-based and entirely nontoxic! Thieves Whitening Toothpaste gently removes stains without damaging tooth enamel with a combination of effective and gentle ingredients one of which is calcium hydroxyapatite. This ingredient closely mimics thetooth’s enamel, making it ideal for maximum cleaning and stain removal with minimal abrasion. 

DIY-Heat Protection Spray with Essential Oils

Do you find your hair feels dry and lacks lustre after blow-drying? Are your curls not lasting as long as they used to? One of the main reasons why this would happen is simple: your hair is most likely damaged. To prevent this from happening, it’s so important to use heat protectant spray on your hair before applying heat. And the essential oils will support your hair!! 

Heat Protectant Spray

Shield your strands with this heat protectant spray, made with Clary Sage and Geranium essential oils. Easy to make, this DIY spray will have your hair feeling full and healthy!

DIY Detangler and Leave-in Conditioner with Essential Oils

We use a detangler almost everyday for my girls. I was excited to find a recipe for a non-toxic detangled that doubles as a leave-in conditioner and also has health benefits. I use Young Living Lavender Mint Conditioner, combined with distilled water and Essential Oils. I have pretty dry hair, but my girls hair is pretty normal.

DIY Mermaid Anti- Friz Spray with Essential Oils

My sister is a cosmetologist and was drawn to oils for so many reasons, but to support healthy hair was on the top! Her clients often complain about their dry, itchy scalp. Or their thinning hair. It is so important to be selective with what you put in your hair to keep it healthy. She found this recipe, called “mermaid hair”. And has been using it on her daughter and clients. Now I personally use it daily, it does not leave your hair feeling greasy, rather shiny! I also use it on my girls to help keep lice away and to smooth the flyaways.

DIY Perfume with Essential Oils

There are a lot of secret ingredients that come in conventional perfumes and colognes that are not disclosed on the labels. Some of them are so harmful that they have the same equivalent of spraying your body with cigarette smoke or car exhaust. Essential oils are often in perfumes, but not essential oils are the same, fragrance can be  found in most conventional perfumes are completely synthetic and are made in a lab. Side note: Always be wary of the word “fragrance.” Do your research on where your essential oils come from (why I only use Young Living). 

Blend Ideas-

• balance: lavender, ylang ylang, cedarwood, bergamot
• good fortune: lavender, lemon
• spring fever: lime, grapefruit, geranium 
• cottage garden: geranium, lavender
• flawless: geranium, patchouli, frankincense
• peachy: orange, valor, cedarwood 
• angelic: white angelica, frankincense

DIY All Natural Perfume

5 from 8 votes

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients

  

• 1 100 ml Glass Perfume Bottle
• 50 drops of essential oil I used a combo 20/15/10/5
• vodka enough to fill up your jar

Instructions

 

• Add your essential oils to your perfume jar
• Let the oils sit for 48 hours
• After 48 hours add in your alcohol 
• Let perfume bottle sit for a month before using

Notes

*I chose my perfume blend based off my favorite scents! Or look up your favorite perfume and see what the main essential oil is they add to it and try to re-create!

*Adjust the oils to your bottle size

*After you add the alcohol, it is best to give your perfume a month to really set and infuse. The oils will truly mix with the alcohol, and the alcohol itself will lose whatever scent it may have had on its own. It’s hard to wait, especially when you are excited about it, but so totally worth it!

 

*Homemade perfumes are typically your choice of oils (base note, middle note, and top note) in an alcohol base. When you smell a perfume, top notes are typically the first to reach your senses, followed by the middle notes, followed by the base. Some examples of base notes- Cedarwood, Sacred Sandalwood, Ylang Ylang. Middle notes-Geranium, Lavender. Top notes (my favorite) orange, lime, bergamot.
