Ingredients

  • foaming soap dispenser (this brand has worked very well for us over the years)
  • water
  • natural liquid soap of your choice (the brand that I linked to is one good option)
  • 1/2 tablespoon vegetable glycerine (for extra moisturizing) (optional)
  • a few drops of your choice of essential oils (optional) (read my post on Which Essential Oils are Best? – Part One to see why I recommend this company)
  • few drop olive oil (optional for better foaming and to extend the life of the soap pump)
  • Optiphen Preservative (strongly recommended--use .5-1.5% or 1/4 teaspoon for an 8 ounce container)

Instructions

  1. Fill empty foaming soap dispenser with water, approximately 4/5 full.
  2. Fill remaining space with a liquid soap of your choice (and glycerine, essential oils, olive oil and preservative, if using) being careful not to get too close to the top.
  3. Shake gently to mix and use. Note: you definitely do not want to add the soap first. If you do, the soap will foam up as you are adding the water to fill the container and you will end up with a foaming, half-filled container.

Notes

  • Citrus oils like lemon or orange are wonderful for this soap, but of course use whatever you like.
