Homemade

Have you ever tried to make your own shaving cream?

We did.  Here's how our's turned out & what you'll need.

•  1 cup conditioner
• 1 cup shampoo
• 5 tablespoons lotion
• 5 tablespoons baby oil

We used an empty shampoo bottle, rinsed it out and then started putting in the ingredients.  We just spooned them in, starting with the conditioner, shampoo, lotion then the baby oil.  Closed the lid and shook it really good.  You are supposed to let this sit about an hour before using it.  We did.

This is supposed to resemble 

 which is what both of our daughters use and they love it!  This homemade version worked just fine for me, however the girls didn't like it.  The original is much thicker and the homemade version is rather runny.  I'm sure you could play around with the ingredients, but my girls have decided that shave cream is like cheese.  You don't skimp and buy the "off" brand!

Here's where we first got the idea to try our hand at making our own via Pinterest.
