DIY toilet paper spray recipe
Making your own DIY toilet spray is simple, quick, and easy. Gather all of your ingredients and supplies right away. This recipe uses a 2 oz bottle. It's a great size to toss in your backpack, or purse, or to leave right on the toilet bowl.
Equipment
- 2 oz. glass spray bottle
- wooden spoon or whisk
- glass measuring cup
- teaspoon
- glass bowl
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 oz. distilled or boiled water
- 1/2 teaspoon fractionated coconut oil
- 1/2 tablespoon aloe vera gel
- 1/4 teaspoon castile soap
- 5 drops lavender essential oil
- 5 drops tea tree essential oil
Instructions
- If you are using boiled water, then you will want to do that first so it can start to cool right away. You can boil your 2 ounces of water on the stovetop or microwave the water in a glass measuring cup.
- First, measure out 1/2 teaspoon of fractionated coconut oil and 1/2 tablespoon of aloe vera gel and add to the glass bowl. Add 1 1/2 oz. of distilled water or boiled and cooled water to the glass bowl and mix.
- Then, add 1/4 teaspoon of castile soap to the bowl and mix again. The mixture should go from water and oil separated to a white emulsified mixture.
- Next, pour 5 drops of lavender essential oil and 5 drops of tea tree oil into the mixture. Stir. If children will be using the spray, then I would use 10 drops of lavender essential oil instead.
- Then put the small funnel on the glass spray bottle. Pour the diy toilet paper spray into the funnel, pausing if the mixture needs a few seconds to go into the spray bottle. You may also need to slightly lift the funnel, depending on the neck of your glass bottle.
- Last, add the spray top to your glass spray bottle and this toilet spray is ready to use!
Notes
I usually boil about twice as much (or more) water than I need, just in case something happens or I decide to make something else with it! In order for the boiled water cool faster, place it in the fridge or freezer while measuring out the other ingredients.
