An all natural, very mild liquid soap for
everyday use in your
kitchen or bath.
Ingredients: (Makes 2 - 8 oz bottles)
All ingredients were measured.
2 cups of grated (cured) castile soap
1 tablespoon of palm oil
1 teaspoon vodka
1/2 tablespoon glycerin (optional)
1/2 teaspoon lemon essential oil (or any EO)
1/2 teaspoon grapefruit essential oil (or any EO)
1/2 teaspoon eucalyptus essential oil (or any EO)
2 1/2-3 cups of spring or distilled water
2 pump or foaming bottles
Over low heat and in a double-boiler pan, add grated
soap, palm oil, glycerin and water. Simmer until all the
soap has melted and is liquefied. Add vodka. Remove
from heat and let cool slightly before adding the
essential oils, mix well. Let cool completely before
pouring into bottle and check the consistency
(if too thick, add more spring water and stir).
Using a funnel, slowly pour liquid soap into chosen
bottle. Avoid any lumpy soap that may have not
melted from going into the funnel.

in the "cosmetic" scene - Vodka is better than special alcohol you can buy in drugstores - it does the job and is almost odorless
thank you Monique -
1Plus if you get frustrated, you can always take a little "sip" of the vodka to help you through the process, LOL.
2well - i prefer Gin to Vodka but only with the "Tonic" - not the skin tonic
3Well, if you want to be technical, then it has to be coconut rum for me or tequilla rose.
4I can see women from around the world trying to make natural liquid soap and getting drunk, LOL.
