The top reason I started making my own foaming hand soap is because store bought soaps contain chemicals and fragrances that I don’t want to put on my skin or my kiddos skin.

By making my own soap I know exactly what ingredients are in it and that they are safe for my family.

Supplies For Making Non Toxic Foaming Hand Soap

You only need 3 ingredients to make your soap and foaming soap dispenser(s). The initial cost may seem a little pricey but once you have these supplies they will last you a long time and save you money on soap in the long run.

1. Castile Soap (unscented)- I use Dr. Bronners Unscented so that I can choose the scent of my soap.

2. Distilled water- this water has had most of its impurities removed.

3. Essential oil- I like Young Living Essential Oils. My favorites for foaming hand soap are Theives, Lemon, Lime and Citrus Fresh. Choose your favorite essential oil scent.

4. Foaming soap dispenser – I purchased glass foaming soap dispensers from Amazon but if you have any at home already just use those! Please note: If you choose to use a citrus essential oil you will need a glass dispenser. Citrus oils can slowly eat away at plastic.

5. Funnel (optional)- Using a funnel can be helpful in eliminating spills while making your soap (speaking from experience) but totally optional.

How To Make Non Toxic Foaming Hand Soap

This recipe will make a little over 8 ounces of soap. You can double if needed depending on your soap dispenser volume.

STEP 1: Add 3 Tbsp liquid castile soap to foaming soap dispenser. (I use the funnel on this step)

STEP 2: Add 10-15 drops essential oil. Use less if you have sensitive skin.

Be sure to select a high quality essential oil. Some essential oils sold in stores have additives and fragrance. You want to select a pure grade essential oil to keep this recipe non-toxic. I personally use Young Living or Doterra essential oils.
