Even More Soap

I was on a roll from yesterday, so I made some more soap. But this time it was liquid soap. I used 1/4 cup grated glycerin soap and 1 1/4 cups water cooked on low until melted to make shower gel or hand soap. Then I took 1/4 cup grated glycerin and 4-5 cups water cooked on low until melted to make liquid hand soap for the foaming pump.

I realized there was a minor glitch with handmade liquid soap. No suds. And if there's no bubbles, we just use MORE. But then I may as well go back to buying soap again. So I came up with a possible solution. A foaming hand soap pump. The soap needs to be very thin, but it comes out sudsy! Yeah!!!

You can buy the pumps anywhere, even Dollar Tree. The problem is they already have soap in them. I dumped the soap into another container for my experiment and we'll have to use it later. I'll put it in the utility sink!
