Spray some Tropical Island poo spray in the bowl before you go, and your senses will be whisked away to your own personal tropical paradise, where pooping smells as great as it feels.
The Recipe for Tropical Island DIY Poo Pourri
You will need:
- 15 drops Lemon Eucalyptus essential oil
- 15 drops Sweet Orange essential oil
- 15 drops Tangerine essential oil
- 15 drops Cypress essential oil
- 2 teaspoons rubbing alcohol
- 2 teaspoons vegetable glycerin
- 1 small 4 ounce spray bottle
Distilled water
- Carefully place essential oils in the bottom of the spray bottle. If you accidentally get more than exactly 15 drops of each scent, don’t worry. It will just smell better.
- Slowly mix in the rubbing alcohol and vegetable glycerin and swirl gently. The rubbing alcohol helps dilute the oils and makes them spread better over the surface of the water.
- Fill the bottle up the rest of the way with distilled water. You can also use tap water, but depending on your location some impurities in tap water might interact with the essential oils, which is why we recommend distilled water.
- Shake and spray!
