I use an old baby wipes container, put the ingredients in, top off with hot water, swish it around to mix it up and put my wipes in on top to soak it up.
When I use the aloe, I mix it with a wand mixer... it gets pretty foamy, though.
I haven't tried the ylang-ylang with the sandalwood, but I'm off to experiment now.
Recipe #1:
• One squirt
Dr Bronner's Almond Liquid Soap
• a few drops
Weleda calendula baby oil
• 2-3 drops
Sandalwood essential oil
• 1 drop
Rose oil
It is heavenly!
Here are a few more combos I like:
Recipe #2:
• One squirt
Dr Bronner's Almond Liquid Soap
• 1 drop
Tea Tree oil
• 2-3 drops
Ylang-Ylang
• Organic Coconut Oil
Recipe #3:
• One squirt
Dr Bronner's Baby Mild Liquid Soap
• One squirt
Burt's Bees baby oil
• One squirt
Aloe Vera Gel
• 2-3 drops
Geranium oil or
Bergamot oil
• 1 drop
Tea Tree oil
• 1 drop
Rose oil
I keep the ratios the same and I make pretty small amounts every other day.
Thanks to Tammy for this Frugal Baby Tip!

She used cloth wipes, even facecloths would do. You could also cut up an old receiving blanket to make wipes.
