Foaming Hand Soap

You can't get any easier than this quick and easy project. No heating, melting, blending, setting...so come on, check it out!
It makes an awesome foaming hand soap you can either use as a waterless hand cleaner, as a soap if you have water on hand, or even on a baby's bottom for a diaper change. My girls bring their to the gym. After their gymnastics class, they insint on having a snack...and this does the trick.

I put Thieves oil in the recipe, an awesome oil well worth looking into! (Filled with a mix of clove, eucalyptus, lemon and rosemary oils that Health Canada regards to be 'naturally occurring substances that are used to restore or maintain good health). You might want to check out the legend behind the oil as well, some good stuff there.

The products on the left will be covered in upcoming posts, lip balm, soothing after-workout balm, chest rub, deodorant, roller-ball mixtures, and MORE! We may even touch on make-up...if you feel up to it.

DIY Foaming Hand Soap

Ingredients:

Foaming Pump Bottle
Castile soap (Dr. Bronner's or Green Beaver)
Vit E oil
Water
Pink Himalayan Salt
Essential Oils (Lemon and Thieves)

Now bear with me for the quantities...
If you only want a bottle like the one pictured above, then visually, divide up your bottle into fourths.
Put 1/8th of a tsp salt in the bottle, and add 4 drops of thieves and 2 drops of lemon oil to the salt and shake. (This prevents the oil from floating on the water and allows it to blend into the mixture).
Fill 1/4th of the bottle with Castile soap. (Normally, I'd use unscented, but I had citrus on hand.) Add 2-3 drops of vit E oil, and fill with water to the 3/4 fill line. Do not fill your bottle, because once you add the pump, it will likely overflow.

If you want to make more, you can do this:
Pink Salt
1/3 C unscented castile soap
2/3 C distilled water
3-5 drops vit E oil
10 drops of Thieves oil (or a Lemon-Thieves combo)
