I've been making diy liquid soap for about 6 months now and I must say it is an experience everyone should try. One reason everyone should try making liquid soap is that you get to customize the scent, it's sort of like playing apothecary! Over the past few months I began recording the formulas of the essential oil blends I create to use specifically in the liquid soap; and well to be honest, those index cards are starting to pile up and get lost on my craft table. So I thought it's about time I share these blends on my blog. Below you'll find a completely random list of EO blends I've used in the liquid soap we use for washing hands and dishes. This list is a melting pot of EO blends DH and I mixed up and named, copycat formulas, and blends created by others. Also each blend formula below was used to scent repurposed 9 fl oz dish soap squirt bottles or approximately 1/4 of the diy liquid soap formula I blogged about a while back (check back later for update with link). Now on to the formulas!
