Lightbulb Chamomile Shampoo.........~

Ingredients:

4 bags of Chamomile tea (or 1 handful of fresh Chamomile flowers)
4 tablespoons pure soap flakes
1 1/2 tablespoons glycerin

Instructions:

Let the tea bags steep in 1 1/2 cups of boiled water for 10 minutes. Remove the tea bags and with the remaining liquid add the soap flakes. Let stand until the soap softens. Stir in glycerin until mixture is well blended. Pour into a bottle. Keep in a dark, cool place.

Glycerin: A transparent sweet liquid, a by-product of soapmaking. Glycerin is used in many cosmetic products. It acts as a humectant. Which means it retains moisture. You can purchase it at most drug stores or health food stores.

Chamomile - Anthemis nobilis L. (Roman) -Matricaria chamomilla (German) Relaxant, great bedtime drink, slows down central nervous system.

Storage:
Most recipes require refrigeration since they don't contain preservatives. Shelf Life is approximately 1 week.
