Diaper Wipe Solution DIY

Diaper Wipe Solution

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon almond, grapeseed, or olive oil 
• 1 tablespoon liquid castile soap 
• 1 cup distilled or filtered water 
• 2 drops chamomile (Roman) essential oil 
• 3 drops lavender essential oil 
• 1/4 teaspoon Vitamin E oil as a natural preservative 
• Cloth wipes you have made or washcloth

Directions: 
Combine all ingredients, adding water first to avoid creating lots of bubbles. There are many different ways to use and store homemade baby wipes and solution. Choose the method that works best for you:

• Place cloth wipes in a re-purposed baby wipe container and pour solution over wipes until moist, but not drenched. (You may have solution left over.)
• Add solution to a spray bottle. Shake well before each use. Spray solution onto cloth wipes before using. You can also spray directly onto child’s diaper area, then wipe with a dry homemade wipe.
• Add wipe solution to a squirt bottle. Shake before use, and squirt directly onto cloth wipes.

Remember that homemade solutions spoil faster than commercial preparations. Make the wipes in small batches so you don’t have to worry about spoilage. Use wipes/solution within a week or two.
