Distilled Water

Preparation:

Follow these simple steps to create your luxurious body wash:

 
STEP 1:
 
First, add half a cup of water to a pan and let it reach the boiling point.
 
STEP 2:
 
Then, add half a tablespoon (5 grams) of neem leaf powder to the water. If you are using neem leaves or crushed neem tablets, add them accordingly.
 
STEP 3:
 
Boil the water at a simmer till it becomes half its original quantity. You will get a concentrated form of neem leaf decoction.
 

STEP 4:

While the water simmers, take a separate bowl and add one big cup of distilled or normal drinking water.
 

STEP 5:

Add half a cup of rose water to it. Rose water lies in the category of distilled water. So, if you want, you can take 1.5 cups of rose water instead of Adding half a cup of rose water to distilled water.

Once the decoction boils into half the original quantity, strain with the help of a coffee filter. If you do not have a coffee filter, use a cloth to strain the decoction. The reason is to filter out the powder (we do not want powder in our body wash!).
 
STEP 11:
 
Add ten drops of essential oil. Your bodywash is ready!!
 
Once you mix it nicely, you will notice foam forming. It will give you the lather that you expect from a body wash. You will also see how beautiful the body wash feels to the touch!
