Care to share your DIY wipe wash solution?

We were using Lusa organics wipe wash mixed with water on ds's cloth wipes. However, I recently ran out and was thinking of trying my own homemade wipe wash. Do you guys have any good recipes?  Tia!

We just use water. I did use a mix of wate and CA baby (old version) but found water to be just as good. 

 I did like using a solution for BF poo.

I tried several different homemade solutions using camomile tea and essential oils, or baby soap.  Finally switched to just water.  It worked just as well and was much better on Chase's sensitive skin.

Water, a little squirt of Dr. Bronner's liquid baby castille soap and about ten drops of grapefruit seed extract oil into a peri-bottle. I like making my water just a tiny bit soapy because I use that to wash our wands when we are out and about and since I already carry the dry wipes in the diaper bag it's just easy. I add the GSE oil because 1) it disinfects and 2) I truly believe it has kept yeast away. A while back DS had two bad episodes with yeast and nothing worked until I used GSE oil so adding it to the water is a preventative measure.

In a spray bottle, we use 90% water, 10% olive oil and a couple of drops of TTO.
