Homemade Hand Soap
Reader Sandi shared her great frugal idea…how to make Homemade Hand Soap
I just wanted to send a different kind of recipe using some of the items that we get for free or cheap here on LRWC. We got some Softsoap Pampered Hands a few weeks back at CVS, and Ivory soap at Walgreens too. I was out of handsoap so I decided to make my own.
Here is Sandi’s Recipes:
Ingredients:
- 1 Bar Ivory Soap – Grated
- 2- 3 Cups Water (optional, brew a green tea bag) – amount depends on how thick you want your soap
Directions:
- Add grated soap to water and cook until the soap disolves
- Let cool
- Fill each soap dispenser about halfway with the melted soap and add more water
- Optional: Grind up some oatmeal and add to the soap and water before melting
