Save Money DIY Foaming Hand Soap

I love being able to save money on products I use every day.  Here is a quick and easy recipe for foaming had soap that costs much less than purchasing from a store.  And you get to customize the smell!



Foaming Hand Soap Recipe
Ingredients:
1/4 cup Castile soap
1 tsp sweet almond oil (you can purchase Here )
2-3 drops you favorite doTERRA essential oils (see below for ideas)
fill to top with filtered water (for best results)
Add Castile soap and almond oil to an empty soap dispenser. Fill remaining with water

Essential oil combinations to try:
Soothing-Floral:
1 drop lavender for tissue restorative, calming, lessens anxiety and anti-microbial
1 drop geranium for balance, tissue regenerative, anti-bacterial and anti-depressant
1 drop ylang ylang for anti-depressant, sedative and balancing
Uplifting:
1 drop wild orange for anti-depressant, digestive, emotional balance and anti-septic
1 drop lemon for anti-depressant, refreshing, anti fungal and antiseptic
1 drop lime for anti-anxiety, antibacterial, and revitalizing
Holiday Cheer:
1 drop cinnamon for anti-inflammatory, purifier, and warming
1 drop wild orange for anti-depressant, digestive, emotional balance and anti-septic
1 drop white fir for antiseptic, anti arthritis and analgesic

 
Because quality is everything when it comes to essential oils, never buy your oils from the grocery store. Although they may be suitable for aroma, they aren't the quality you need for health purposes. This is why I support and affiliate for our favorite brand, doTERRA essential oils.
There are several ways to get your hands on wild orange, oregano and Clary sage essential oil: retail, discounted, or wholesale. 
But retail sucks.
So I recommend purchasing a discounted or wholesale account (similar to something like Costco) to get the best prices on this or other oils. Which is the best fit for you will depend on your needs. You may email me at angelaf.doterra@gmail.com for more information or visit my site here
