Safe Alternatives To Harmful Bathroom Sprays

Did you know that most commercial bathroom sprays and air fresheners contain chemicals that can be detrimental to your health? Let’s face it, we’ve all been in a situation where the bathroom didn’t smell like spring roses and it can be quite embarrassing at times. But there’s no need to worry - about that smell or about your health - because with a DIY recipe, you’ll be able to get rid of that foul odor fast!


Put a Few Dabs on the Roll
The first safer alternative to toxic bathroom sprays involves choosing your favorite essential oil. All you need to do is put a few droplets of the oil on the inside of the toilet paper roll and the scent will release into the air as you pull sheets of paper. It’s that simple!

DIY Poo Pourri
The second option is to create your own Poo Pourri spray. Again, the process is extremely simple and will have your bathroom smelling fresh for hours. Follow the steps below:
  1. Find a small spray bottle. You can purchase one anywhere toiletries are sold or you can use an old hairspray bottle.
  2. Use distilled or bottled water as the base of your spray. Tap water will work too, except it may have traces of other minerals that could alter the scent.
  3. Mix in a bit of rubbing alcohol or witch hazel. This will will the water and oils mix better.
  4. Use 100% natural Essential oils. Find your favorite scent and add a few drops to the mixture. You may find that you want to add more for a stronger scent.
  5. Spray the bowl before using.
