RE: Ditch the toxic Shaving Cream! My natural, EASY, alternative:
I usually just shave with soap but with my new (and really sharp) stainless steel razor, I think I need something more lubricating and moisturizing - this is a great idea! I don't think coconut oil is a good idea though because I've heard of it causing problems in the pipes just like you said. Have you thought of using jojoba oil? I hear it's really good for skin/nails! Also, I used to use baby oil as a body oil which worked wonders, but have stopped since it is packaged in plastic and I'm trying to find plastic free options lol!
Yes, I used soap before too, but it is quite drying and I have sensitive skin so it wasnt good for me...
I like jojoba oil, but it is more expensive and not carried in my local grocery store, so I get the avocado which is much cheaper comes in glass jars. And I love adding in the EO's which help soothe the skin and smell SO good.. ♥
Makes sense! I don't think I've seen avocado oil before, I'll keep my eyes peeled! That would probably be good to use in DIY natural makeups too!
Probably so!
I find it with the rest of the oils, near the olive, I think. :)
