I started getting red bumps from Jason aloe vera soap. A really good cheap one that I have always wanted to make into liquid is a bar soap called "Bee and Flower Sandalwood". I know, everyone groans at the idea of sandalwood. I promise, this is not the hippie sandalwood oil that makes you barf. This is a soft perfume quality, light, yet intoxicating sandalwood which is actually how sandalwood is SUPPOSED TO SMELL.What you have been smelling that makes you hate sandalwood isn't even sandalwood. Its oils and chemicals mixed together in an attempt at making something that smells kinda like it so they can sell it to stoners. With Bee and Flower Sandalwood, I get compliments from ladies and the men all the time. It's also cheap as heck. Go on eBay and its less than a couple bucks. Just remember. A little goes a long way.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03118143794277177705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1706493589747646669.post-36517724205686940092015-01-06T10:22:31.395-07:002015-01-06T10:22:31.395-07:00Glycerin is a natural byproduct of the saponificat...Glycerin is a natural byproduct of the saponification that creates real soap in the first place. Most commercial bars are often stripped of most of their natural glycerin in order to add it to more expensive cosmetics, moisturizers, and many pharmaceutical pills.

Store-bought liquid soap is really bad for the environment because of the CO2 from driving what amounts to millions of tons of heavy water-soap being transported - from factories to depots to supermarkets to homes. Then many millions of plastic soap dispensers being discarded (more transport and use of raw oil-based materials). Buying dry soap, adding tap water, then re-using dispensers is ideal for reducing our carbon footprints. I hope many, many people will take up this idea.

Its now thickened a lot and they use a hand mixer to blend it together. It comes out creamy. And they use 1 gallon of water to 1 8oz bar of soap. Makes about 1 gallon and a half of liquid soap.

Vinegar rinse solution is ratio 3 TBS of white vinegar to 1 cp warm water in recycled shampoo bottle each time I shower. My hair has never been so thick, shiny and soft. I have honey blonde hair that is down to my knees, and I never get tangles using this method. I use a wide tooth comb starting from the bottom of hair up, never tangles because I don't pile my hair on top of my head when I wash it. IF there is a tangle it is from a piece of lint from the towel. I pop my towels hard before using them, this helps to rid the towels of lint. If I get a tangle in my hair after it has dried it is always a piece of lint in the center of the knot most likely from a towel, my blanket I cover with to watch tv or from my sweater, or from a piece floating in the air. Some no-commercial shampoo group people use apple cider vinegar but for me it just didn't get the extra oil out. I do not use the baking soda wash they recommend because it leaves a white powder residue on your hair, especially if you have hard water. I have been commercial shampoo/conditioner free for almost a year now, the silicone is out of my hair that took about a week to get rid of, the silicone coats the hair shaft and stops water from the core of your hair shaft drying my hair out from the inside out. My hair is no longer falling out, and has grown and thickened up nicely. Especailly now that I use a liquid soap recipe like this method, minus the glycerin in place of my shampoo and the white vinegar solution in place of my conditioner.Sandra Haleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13439737947343698033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1706493589747646669.post-34919897955888263692013-08-13T18:15:55.932-06:002013-08-13T18:15:55.932-06:00How can you "flavor" this soap?

That's what most recipes suggest. <br /><br />Other soaps usually have chemical ingredients, including 'scents' -- natural soaps use only essential oils for scent if they're scented at all. There's probably a natural soap maker near you, and there are loads of internet sites (including mine, I admit).Janehttp://www.smallbones.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1706493589747646669.post-16345446710757676982013-03-05T08:19:13.066-07:002013-03-05T08:19:13.066-07:00I made this soap using the 2cups soap, 2Tbs glycer...I made this soap using the 2cups soap, 2Tbs glycerine, 10 cups water recipe.
