You will need....
A few napkins (I found mine for $3 at the local thrift store)
3 Tablespoons Organic Coconut Oil (from any health food or grocery store)
3 Tablespoons Rose Water (from an Asian grocery store)
Scissors
Mixing Bowel and Spoon
A waterproof bag/container to store the wipes in (I used an old travel make up bag that I wasn't using-you can buy these super cheap from thrift stores)
Coconut Oil is an antibacterial oil that has immense health benefits.
Rose water is antibacterial and antiseptic and has a beautiful floral scent.
Both these products are natural and work wonderfully for sensitive skin.
As with all new products, do a skin test prior to using them in case of an allergic reaction.
Step 1: Lay out all items, ready to go
Step 2: Cut napkins into suitable size for individual
wipes
Step 3: Measure Organic Coconut Oil and place
in mixing bowl
Step 4: Measure out Rose Water and place in mixing
bowl with Coconut Oil
Step 5: Mix together to create and oily syrup like
consistency-you may need to heat up the
Coconut Oil first if it is too solid
Step 6: Soak wipes in mixture. They don't need
to all be completely soaked, just enough to
be moist and oily
Step 7: Fold wipes together so they are easy to
pull out, one by one
Step 8: Place moist and oily wipes inside your
waterproof purse or container
And Voila!
You have now made your own Zero Waste Baby Wipes!!
These can be used for so many things.
I use these mainly for changing my son Romeos' nappies,
but they can also be used instead of hand sanitiser and
many other things.
A Few Things.....
These are very oily so wash them separately in the machine.
You made need to re-soak the wipes after they have been washed.
Also beware of other people getting SUPER jealous of your
awesome ZERO WASTE WIPES.....
And remember...
Compassion is Invincible!
