Make Your Own Liquid Gel Soap

Make your own liquid gel soap!!



Ingredients
2 cups soap flakes or grated bar soap
1/2 Gallon water
2 Tablespoons glycerin

Great for hand soap or bath soap.


Grate 2 cups worth of bar soap, you can use up any small piece you have laying around or any earth friendly bars!

In a large pot combine all ingredients. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the soap flakes have dissolved. This took me about an hour, I kept forgetting about it and then going back and stirring it and checking it.


Transfer the mixture to a clean 1/2 Gallon container and cover tightly. For a thinner soap, increase the water to a gallon. This makes a LOT of soap. I filled my large bathroom pump, a small bathroom pump and half of one of those Soft Soap containers I had saved for this purpose. Lucky me, make sure you have a giant container ready!!
