Are you sick of me writing about homemade cleaners yet? If so you should probably skip over this post. My sister-in-law knows I'm into natural products and gave me a bottle of
Methods foaming hand soap in my stocking this year at Christmas. It lasted me three months and I loved it! I was just about to toss the bottle out and realized the label peeled right off leaving me with a plain cute bottle. Hmm. This got me thinking, maybe I could use this bottle to make my own foaming soap. I've made homemade hand soap but never considered putting it into a foaming bottle. SUCCESS! I'm so pumped right now. Get it?! Pumped. Har-har. I bought a huge bottle of castile soap 9 months ago (mentioned
here) and still have over half a bottle left. I looked up a few recipes online for foaming hand soap and settled on this one. It's GREAT and works out to be about $1.00 per bottle to make. Me likie.
*Update: We've been using this soap for a well over a month and we absolutely love it. I won't be purchasing hand soap every again (unless it's for the bottle!). I warn you that tea tree scene is strong the first day but complete dissipates after that.
Ingredients
1 foaming soap bottle
water
castile soap (I used Lavender)
tea tree oil
Method
Fill 1/3 of your bottle with castile soap. Put about 10 drops of tea tree oil and and fill the remainder of the bottle with water. Voila!
