These recipes are incredible! As a mother of two little girls I try to find the most “green” way to clean my home. I don’t have much time but after work I prefer to spend all my free time with my kids – cooking and preparing homemade products for cleaning. I wanna be a good example for them! So I show them how to live in a close relation to the Planet Earth without destroying it! I prepare almost the same recipe for a hand soap but instead of borax I use lard. It makes the skin so soft and hydrated! I will try your recipe as well! Best wishes!
