DIY Liquid Body Soap

Pin It


Another frugal find, taking bar soap and making into liquid soap. It actually triples the amount of soap!! CHA CHING. It really stinks up the place like soap, so I would suggest a well ventilated area. I had all windows open and the front door. Next time I'm wearing a mask. Worked out fantastic and will be doing the next round for Caleb in a manly scent.
 
Read the how to below, found this here

What you'll need:
  • 3 Bars of Dove Soap (any scent you like, I like Summer Care)
  • 6 Cups of water
  • Grater
  • glycerin {you don't need this, but I added it in}
Place water and 3 grated bars of soap into a pan on medium heat. Stir occasionally until all soap is dissolved. Transfer body wash into a large bowl to cool. Once the soap has cooled pour into containers for shower use.

wanted to add in: I only used 3 bars for the first batch and yielded quite a bit, I don't see why you couldn't use all six in a pack and double the recipe. Just make sure you have a large container to hold it all and store it.

Price Breakdown:
3 bars of Dove soap = $3.50 (for nearly 6 months of body wash)
Store bought Dove Body wash = $6.50 (for just over a month of body wash)
