Homemade 3-in-1 Face, Hand, & Dish Soap




You can make your very own soap for face and hands (and dish) at home and you will only need three simple ingredients. It's the Dr. Bronner's Baby Mild Castile Soap, tea tree oil, and sweet almond oil which are very versatile and can be used to make many more things. This combination is very cleansing and the tea tree oil is a natural antiseptic and preservative. The sweet almond oil is help moisturize the skin. (You'll see these items often in my other blogs) I recycled an old Dial foaming soap container and I filled it with 1/5th of Dr. Bronner's Baby Mild Castile Soap, 2 to 3 drops of tea tree oil, and few teaspoons of sweet almond oil. A little bit goes a very long way! I filled the rest of it with distilled water. Stirred not shaken. :) Voila! There's your face and hand soap.


Dr. Bronner's Baby Mild Castile Soap 12.99~16.99 US dollars
Tea tree oil 8.99~10.99 Sweet almond oil 6.99~13.99 US dollars (Depending on how many ounces you buy)
 You can purchase these amazing products on Amazon.com or your local natural grocery store.

Dish Soap:
You can also use this same formula as a natural dish detergent. Do the same thing but add a little more Dr. Bronner's Castile Soap in there (Try a third of the container instead of fifth) It will have a more liquid consistency than the typical dish detergent but it works great as a antibacterial degreaser. Make sure to take out the sweet almond oil. A little works a long way and this is safe for your hands as well!
