It is extremely difficult to make shampoo from scratch. It is generally made in a commercial facility.

Liquid shampoo is often too harsh for hair care.

The Crafter’s Choice Shampoo Base has been formulated for hair care. The pH is slightly different than a traditional shower gel.

The most popular additives are the Crafter’s Choice Pearlizer and Silk Amino Acids.

To my knowledge it is not possible to make a good all natural shampoo that would meet the needs of most consumers. The Crafter’s Choice Shampoo Base is Paraben Free.

The Crafter’s Choice Hair Conditioner Concentrate is considered the best on the market. It is easy to use and feels fabulous in the hair.

Castor oil is well regarded as being a great scalp moisturizer. Jojoba oil is also popular because it doesn’t leave a greasy feel to the scalp.

Jojoba Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Mineral Oil and Lanolin are all popular ingredients in cuticle creams.

I find that cuticle creams supplied in 1/2 to 2 oz sizes are most popular.

I would include bath salts, a pedicure brush, foot cream and cotton socks. Try adding a few colors of nail polish purchased in the closeout section of the dollar store. Look for a simple bucket and wrap with fancy paper. Call the gift set the “Totally Pampering Spa Experience”. Great for teen sleep over parties!!

The amount of flavor used will determine where it is placed on the ingredient label. You will use the term “flavor” as the ingredient name.
