Are you washing harmful detergents into our waterways each time you clean your hands? It has become the norm to wash hands with a liquid
soap contained in a pump bottle. Problem is, these days the term "soap" is as slippery as the sudsy substance itself. Household name brands of liquid hand soaps
are not soaps at all, strictly speaking. They are chemical-laden detergents...and
they are not good for the environment or for us.
Problem: you want to
live green. You don't like using these products, but you can't stand the thought of going back to messy, slippery bar soap. You're not alone -- yuck! So how about going the DIY-route and concocting your very own eco-friendly liquid hand soap? You can store your finished product in the regular old pump-action bottles, but you'll have peace of mind knowing it's Earth-friendly.
The website Green Living has a suggested "recipe" that, mercifully (for those of us short on time), sounds pretty straightforward. You basically use a cheese grater to grate all-natural bar soap, which is then melted into hot, distilled water.
