When littles ones are learning to wash their hands properly foaming hand soap saves mommies a lot of hassle. But the price of it is ridiculous, especially when you have a 4 year old who thinks it’s hilarious to fill the sink with foam (otherwise known as pouring $5 worth of foaming handsoap down the drain while I’m not looking). I also want to avoid ingredients like triclosan so making my own takes care of that.

Would you believe me if I told you that one bottle of your $2.00 dish washing liquid will make almost 50 bottles of foaming hand soap?  True story. Works out to be about $0.03 a bottle. If you already have a foaming handsoap dispenser, you’re golden. This DIY will cost you pennies. Let’s get started!

– any foaming handsoap dispenser

– 1 tbsp of your favorite eco dish washing liquid

– a measuring spoon (or eyeball it)

– warm water

Measure or eyeball about 1 tbsp of dish washing liquid.

Pour into your empty foaming soap dispenser.

Or skip those above steps entirely and just pour about 1tbsp of dish washing liquid directly from your bottle into your dispenser  😉

Slowly add warm water to your dispenser, leaving enough room for the pump. Swirl it gently to mix together.

End result? Foamy hand soap that won’t make you angry when your children use 43 pumps to wash their hands.
