SAPINDUS MUKIROSSI berries/nuts 🌿 are a berry shell, wild grown in India, that naturally contain a cleaning agent that works like detergent. grown on the Sapindus mukorossi tree, the natural cleaning agent found in these berries is called saponin. Saponin works as a surfactant, breaking the surface tension of the water to penetrate the fibers of your clothing, lifting stains from the fabric, and leaving dirt suspended in the water that is rinsed away!
DIRECTIONS to make a liquid soap for use as body wash, dish soap, laundry detergent, cleaning spray: bring 6 cups of water to ~15 berries to a boil, then lower heat and let simmer on lowest setting for 25 minutes or up to 1 hour. Allow to cool and add essential oils or herbs of choice [lavender, frankincense, lemon, tea tree, sage etc.] strain + store in a glass jar. keep at room temperature for up to 7 days, or keep in the refrigerator for up to 30 days
for a body wash, follow the same preparation, and add jojoba oil, almond oil, or plant oil of choice to add extra moisture for your skin *store in a glass pump bottle for easy dispensing
