We were just discussing ways to remedy body odor when you are allergic or sensitive to most soaps on the market. Glycerin based soaps, vegetable oil based soaps are the safest, but not always the way to cure body odor.

One of the ways that I've read to cure this problem is to use Tomato Juice! Pour a couple of cups of tomato juice in your tub of water and soak for about 15 minutes. It's worth a try!

Have any of you made your own soaps? If you have let us know what you use in them.

Thanks for posting this Teri! I think I'll wait and look for some other soaps before trying the juice!

It would be great if someone could tell us how to make our own soap! Another good thing to research...thanks for all of your help!

lol Shelley!

I don't know if I'd like to try that one either - it sounds pretty gross!! But, ya know when I find things, I like to share it with everyone!!

PS I used to make my own hand soaps - using glycerin. I have a kit though that came with the molds to form the soaps...you can melt glycerin (maybe found at pharmacy, or a Hobby shop) and mix it with oatmeal or anything you'd like!
