DIY Essential Oil Liquid Hand Soap

You're going to love how easy it is to make this liquid hand soap!  Just a few ingredients, that you probably already have around the house, and it's done!  You will save on your water bill, too!




DIY Essential Oil Liquid Hand Soap

10 Drops Grapefruit Essential Oil
1/4 cup Liquid Castile Soap - Unscented
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Organic)
2 cups Water

Combine all of the ingredients into a glass pump bottle.  Shake!  That's it.  Seriously... why haven't I made my own products before?  It is ridiculously easy!  And honestly, you can use any essential oil you like.  I just happen to enjoy Grapefruit EO to wash my hands with.  It smells great and has some beneficial properties! {See below.}

To use:  I recommend pumping a couple of squirts into your hands, rub/wash hands together and then turn on the water for a rinse.  No need to run water, wet hands, scrub under the water...  there is enough water in the hand soap to provide the right amount for rubbing and scrubbing.  So you will save water from the tap, too!   BTW - the olive oil is a great addition to this soap, providing a little moisture retention for your hands.  This is not a drying soap.
