Basic Hand Soap Recipe

Published by faye12 under Soap Making Posts Edit This

This is a basic recipe for making your own hand soap at home.  You will need to choose essential or fragrance oils to add to it.  I highly recommend using essential oils.  Some of my favorites are lavender, chamomile, and grapefruit.  You may add more then one but be sure to go easy, you don’t want to add too much or your soap won’t turn out.

Clear glycerin melt and pour soap base

Essential oil

Melt the soap base in a double boiler.  When it is completely melted, add your chosen essential oil and mix well.  Pour into your mold or molds and let set completely.  Unmold and cut if necessary.  Wrap in plastic for storage.
