Base Ingredients
  • 2.6 oz Liquid Castile Soap About 1/3 cup, gentle and biodegradable soap base.

  • 2.6 oz Carrier Oil Such as fractionated coconut oil for optimal hydration.
  • 0.5 oz Vegetable Glycerin Adds moisture, beneficial during dry seasons.

  1. Pour all of the ingredients directly into your foaming soap container in the order listed.
  2. Fill the container to the top with water to dilute the soap solution.
  3. Secure the lid tightly on your foaming soap container.
  4. Gently shake the container to mix all ingredients thoroughly.
