Foaming Hand Soap DIY

Here’s what you’ll need:

Foaming pump dispenser

Castile Soap

water**

Essential oils – I really like Citrus Burst in the Summer

Here’s what you’ll do:

1. Add water about 2/3 full
2. Combine 3 tbsp castile soap
3. Add essential oils, about 30 – 40 drops total
4. Replace cap, shake well

**If you choose not to use a preservative you will need to store it in the fridge. Optiphen plus is a preservative which reduces the instance of bacterial growth in water-based products. We recommend that a preservative is used in any water-based products that you make at home. This is a great choice since it contains no parabens, no formaldehyde, and are not formaldehyde contributors.

A few soap “recipes” to get you started:

• HOLIDAY: Combine Orange Sweet, Clove Bud and Cinnamon Leaf
• SUMMER FRESH: Combine any citrus (Lime, Lemon, Grapefruit Pink, or Orange Sweet) with Peppermint or Spearmint
• KITCHEN: Lavender and Spruce
• GERM FIGHTING: Use Germ Destroyer Synergy or Germ Fighter Synergy
• IMMUNE BOOSTING: Use Immune Boom or Immune Aid Synergy
• SOFT & SWEET: Chamomile Roman and Lavender

Enjoy your foaming hand soap. I love knowing that I am providing a healthy environment even through my cleaning products. Using this hand soap is a gentle yet effective way to ensure that proper hygiene is happening at my house! My kids love to choose their scents and it helps encourage them to wash their hands!
