Homemade Hand Soap

Easy and cheap way to make your own hand soap!
  • 2 cups soap flakes or grated bar soap
  • 1/2 gallon water
  • 2 tbsp glycerin
Mix ingredients together in a large pot or dutch oven. Set over low heat, stirring occasionally until the soap has dissolved. Transfer to a jar and cover tightly. For a less thick gel soap, use 1 gallon of water.

Now, if you like the foamy kind, here's what you do! Take an empty foam soap dispenser, fill about 1/4 of the way with the soap, fill the rest of the way with water. Shake well and you are ready to use!

You can also scent using essential oils if you choose!
