homemade handsoap


In order to simplify our lives and reduce exposure to chemicals I've begun making many of my own cleaning and skin care products. In the next step of my families journey, liquid handsoap is the next to go. I also love that I can choose organic ingredients to make this even more healthy for my family!

In an 8 oz foaming soap dispenser mix 2-3 tablespoons of Dr. Bronner's (or preferred) liquid castile soap, 1 tsp vegetable glycerine, 5 drops of Thieves / On Guard essential or other anaseptic property essential oil (lemon, Melaleuca) and then fill with water.

*You can reuse soap containers to be even more thrifty!
