Shelf Life: 1 year
Benefits: Castile soap can be used to make tons of natural products, and hand soap is one of the most common recipes it’s used in.
Combining it with almond oil and vegetable glycerin will help to cleanse your skin, without over drying it. Eucalyptus is a natural germicide and tea tree is a natural antiseptic.
Tips and Tricks: Use a foaming pump for a less runny solution.
Variations: We like the smell of lavender in this hand wash, but it can be left out or replaced with another essential oil. You can also replace the almond oil with grapeseed oil or avocado oil.
Level of Difficulty: Easy
