 This is my D.I.Y recipe for shaving lotion. I've used this recipe for years and years and I haven't had any cuts since I start making it. I used to buy shaving cream and I would be cut a couple times by the time I got done shaving my legs. With this DIY shaving lotion I never had that problem. 


All these products are from of course... The Dollar Tree! You can use any brand of conditioner, baby shampoo, lotion and baby oil you would like. Here is the measurements for this quick DIY shaving lotion:

(1) Cup Conditioner
(1) Cup Baby Shampoo
(5) Tablespoons Of Lotion
(5) Tablespoons Of Baby Oil


I also got my product mixing measuring cups and spoons from The Dollar Tree. I keep these things in the bathroom so they never mix with my measuring cups and spoons from the kitchen. The container is just a used old plastic jar from a hair product. I love to recycle!


Put everything in a jar (preferably recycled :) take any object to stir (I'm using a craft stick) and mix all the ingredients up until smooth. Let the mixture sit for about (1) hour.


It's an hour later and your mixture is ready to use! It will get thicker as time goes on so stir it up before using. 


This is one of my favorite DIY projects for self care. You can shave your legs and under arms in minutes and feel smooth afterwards. I love using it right before I get in the shower. This DIY shaving lotion last so long! I did the video to make a batch in the video below in 2018 I didn't have to make it again until 2021! Talk about savings! Here is the video:

 I feel like I've done this post on different blogs a million times. I always rewrite it because it's one of the cheapest coolest at home spa like treatments you will ever give yourself. I'm choosing to do the DIY Lotion Paraffin Treatment on my feet this time because my feet are extremely crusty right now. You can also do this DIY treatment on your hands the same way. Here is all you need to do this DIY lotion paraffin treatment and you might already have all of this in your home right now!

That's it! (2) Plastic bags (I have plenty from my grocery shopping) Any type of lotion (This one was from the dollar tree but I say go all out and splurge on some nice lotion your really like or even make some!) Lastly a pair of big comfy socks to warm your feet up.
So we are going to wash our feet off clean and put LOADS of our chosen lotion on the feet. Be very generous this is the "Paraffin"
Slide each foot into a plastic bag and tie the bag or tuck it in
Final step we are going to put on our comfy socks over the plastic bags to create that warm lotion that will now act like "paraffin" leave your feet like this for at least (20) mins the longer the better. If you can stand an hour go for it. Also you don't have to sit down you can walk around. It will be squishy but you'll create even more warmth by moving around. Watch a show or just kick back and relax until your ready to reveal those toes.
Nice soft feet in about (20) minutes! I love this DIY Lotion paraffin treatment! Not just cause it cost pennies but my feet really do feel good afterwards and I know if they get ashy again I know what to do. Make a at home spa day with DIY feet and hand treatments. Who said being pampered had to be expensive. This is self care on a budget budget. 

Thank you for stopping through! Make sure to try this DIY and share it!
