Make liquid soap out of bars
by Jen
Casasugar found out that liquid soaps frequently contain chemicals that aren’t good for you or the environment, and found a way to make liquid soap out of bars. The steps are ridiculously easy – it takes a while because at one point you have to let it set overnight, but the actual labor doesn’t require much time or any expertise.
CasaSugar’s version adds nothing to the bar soap ingredients (except water). For suggestions on fun, healthy ingredients to add to it, check out DIY Life’s coverage. By taking a cheap, pure but possibly harsh bar of soap and adding a moisturizer, you can also save money and still come up with a soap that’s good for your skin.
DIYLife mentions adding essential oils for scent. You could also add jojoba or sesame oils for both moisturizing and antibacterial properties.
