I love making things instead of buying them. However, I was discouraged that many of the ingredients I needed were not available in Taipei.
Or so I thought.
My husband found this store when he was searching for my Christmas present. They have everything you need to make your own natural toiletries and cleaning products...at great prices! The first floor has natural soaps, essential oils, shea butter, coconut oil, and other ingredients for cosmetics.
The second floor is like a high school chemistry teacher's supply closet. If you look up the Chinese name or formula for the chemical you want, you can find it here. I even found washing soda for our homemade laundry detergent!
This bottle of coconut oil (below) was 75元...or $2.59 US.
We were pretty excited about this discovery. This month's homemade projects include: toothpaste, hair gel, shampoo, conditioner, and dish soap.
If you're in Taipei and want to check it out the chemical store, here's the info:
