Launching Evorganics line of personal care products

Ha ha, it's next to free so I don't bother to market it.

Step 1: Greasy

Coconut oil.  First of all it's a kind of reverse conditioner for hair or skin.  You massage straight into your scalp or skin, then you try to rinse it off as much as possible.  So it is self equalizing.  People have been looking for the conditioner just right for them.  That's a wrong or expensive approach.

Some use it to kill bacteria responsible for dandruff.  Some use it to repair damaged hair.  Some use it to soften tough skin.  In any case, I don't advice to leave it on for more than a few minutes.  It should also work if you do it more often.

The research is to dilute oil with glycerin and then water.  You can apply a lot less that way and feel better in the process.

This step is optional of course if you hair don't need conditioner.  I used to but I don't after switching to Evorganics.

Step 2: Soapy

I would suggest Dr Bonner's liquid soap.  The best part is that it can be diluted with water to a concentration that you like.  Avoid this step if you can.  The body should produce the right amount of body oil given the chance.  You don't want to strip off all the body oil. But if you put oil in your hair, probably you want to use soap to feel better.

As with all other steps, you should feel good about it.  But don't judge when you are wet.  It will not be squeaky clean as we are all brain washed to feel.  Say when your hair are dry, you should feel like having shampoo and then conditioner.  That's why you don't need them because you will feel the same with Evorganics.

Step 3: Salty

Baking soda solution in purified water (or tap water of course).  One teaspoon per cup is salty enough for your tongue.  Use it to rinse your hair.  Baking soda can dissolve grease in bulk, which is different than soap that only works on the surface.  It is pretty safe, used in and out of the body in medical applications.

Rinse thoroughly with water after each step.  If they can be combined I would have combined them.  Combine Greasy and Salty will result in soap.  That's why some morons on youtube cry foul, generating skunk in their hair.

This step is optional if you don't feel that your hair is dirty at all.

Step 4: Fruity

One teaspoon of citric acid crystals for several cups of water to suit your own taste.  If you can drink it, it won't be too harsh for your hair and skin.  This is an alternative to the more common vinegar rinse.  It's acidic but smell nice.

People use citric acid (or vinegar) to cure or prevent dandruff.  I think it's believable but don't leave it on over a minute.  It has cleaning properties at opposite of the pH scale of baking soda.  So you will have best of both worlds.  Mixing fruity and salty will give you carbon dioxide bubbles, and cancels each other.  But that's what some morons do in their washing machine.  Citric acid is also an excellent water softening agent.

I think I feel a lot of difference between vinegar and citric acid.  With citric acid, I feel my hair is shiny, fluffy, and the greasy feeling on my face disappeared at an instant.  But maybe that's just psychological.

This is optional if you don't feel your hair or skin dirty, and you don't need to prevent dandruff everyday.

People use lemon juice to lighten their blond hair and skin.  I agree that lemon juice contains more things and the process is more complicated.  I don't think that dilute citric acid and immediate rinsing will do anything to your hair or skin.

Step 5: Sweety

One teaspoon of glycerin per cup.  It's extremely common in personal care products as a water soluble moisturizer.  You know if you wash with just water, you will feel bad and dry.  I was hoping to compensate that by adding a moisturizer.  I'm not sure it do anything but I don't feel bad at all washing my hair and body with just glycerin water.  You can even leave it on as a moisturizer or conditioner.

Sweety combines with fruity to produce a little bit of polyester for making cloth fibres.  So don't combine.  This is the only essential step, or otherwise you are not even washing anything.  Glycerin also dissolves oil so it has it's cleaning powers.  It is also used in washing out ear wax.

You must add enough water to glycerin, say half and half, or it will take water from your skin.  Otherwise, the more glycerin the better but this is the only ingredient that cost some money.
