Having liquid soap at sinks around the home can be really convenient and really help prevent the spread of nasty germs. Although it can prove to be quite costly.
-
So today’s tip is is a thrifty solution to this little dilemma.
-
Here’s how you can turn a bar of soap into liquid hand soap:
-
Ingredients:
-
1 cup of soap flakes – 10 cup of water – 1 Tbs glycerin
-
Equipment:
-
Cheese grater – A large pot – Measuring cup and spoons – A spatula for stirring – A soap container with a hand pump – A container to hold excess soap – A Funnel
-
Directions:
-
First, grate the soap. The soap particles do tend to float in the air as you grate so wear a mask to avoid breathing it in. When you’re done, the soap flakes look like grated Parmesan:
-
Combine 1 cup soap flakes, 10 cups water, and 1 Tbs glycerin in a large pot. Turn on medium-low heat and stir until the soap dissolves. This happens fast, about a minute or two.
-
Let the soap cool completely, then pour into the containers using the funnel.
-
This recipe makes a lot of soap (about 6 bottles worth). So put the excess in a large bottle and store it under the sink. Then simply refill the pump container from the big bottle with a funnel as needed.
-
You can also use this soap as body wash. To make it smell nice, add a drop or two of essential oil to the mix.
