How to Make Liquid Hand Soap

Here's an easy recipe for making liquid hand soap.

It's not a sophisticated way of doing it, but it's good enough if you really want to make liquid soap without too much fuss:

Love the luxury of hand soap but hate the price? To make your own, you can use soap scraps or start with a new bar of your favorite brand.

Steps:

1. Grate one bar of soap.
2. Place the grated soap and 1 c. boiling water in a blender and set it on "whip."
3. Add 1 tbsp. honey and 1 tsp. glycerin and stir.
4. Cool the mixture for 15 to 20 minutes and whip again.
5. Add cold water to the mixture until you have 6 c.
6. Whip the mixture again.
7. Pour it into a storage container and let it cool. Do not place a lid on the container.
8. Fill a pump dispenser with the soap. Shake before using.
