When I started doing DIY about ten years ago, I really loved making simple recipes. That hasn't changed haha! It has to be as quick as cooking, otherwise I lose my motivation and find it harder to incorporate DIY into my little projects!
In the last 3 years, I’ve focused more on cleaning product recipes and neglected body care products… so cleaning has surpassed taking care of my face… oh boy 🥴
So I’m starting 2023 with a bang and focusing a bit more energy on myself by taking care of my body and my soul!
Do you want to do the same? Here are my favorite recipes to use every day.

"Crocodile skin" winter butter
This butter has been my best friend for a long time! Without it, I’d probably look… like an iguana.

"Crocodile skin" winter butter
Winter is a difficult season for the skin. If it's not the cold that damages and dries it out, the wind certainly takes care of the rest! This rosehip and chamomile recipe is ideal for the face and hands, and therefore perfect for winter sports enthusiasts!

No-rinse diaper change water
No, this isn't for my daughter! It’s for ME! I like having a clean bottom after a number 2. In the department of revelations, that’s not too bad, right?

No-rinse cleansing water
My solution for countering the discomfort and irritation caused by diapers is to choose simple, natural products. But when an explosive number two from last night's peas makes itself known (literally) or a morning pee threatens mini's delicate skin, a gentle and effective cleaning is essential.

Yoga mat cleaner with very romantic orange blossom
Can we agree that a yoga mat smells like little feet? Unblocking your chakras is always easier in a beautiful atmosphere with an inviting scent!

Orange Blossom Yoga Mat Cleaner
Do you practice yoga daily or occasionally? Proper mat maintenance is essential—more than you might think! Since we rub our bare feet on it and leave sweat behind, we need to clean our mat to prevent the proliferation of bacteria and fungi (yum). This will keep it clean and extend its lifespan. Yay!

Homemade massage oil to soothe our little ones
This oil has been part of my daughter's bedtime routine since she was tiny (it’s even her in the photo that goes with the recipe 😭). Pretty great to have on hand and to incorporate into your habits.

I'm probably not the only parent on Earth who has ever thought, "Heavens, where does the expression 'sleep like a baby' come from?!" How ironic!
