Introduction
Creating your own dishwashing liquid and toothpaste at home is an eco-friendly, cost-effective, and chemical-free alternative to store-bought products. By using simple ingredients, you can ensure a safe and effective cleaning solution while reducing your household waste. In this guide, we’ll show you how to make these essential cleaning products with natural ingredients.
Dishwashing Liquid Recipe
Ingredients:
1 cup liquid castile soap
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoon white vinegar
10 drops essential oil (lemon, tea tree, or lavender for fragrance and antibacterial properties)
2 cups warm water
Instructions:
In a mixing bowl, combine the baking soda and warm water, stirring until dissolved.
Add the liquid castile soap and white vinegar, mixing gently to avoid excessive foaming.
Stir in the essential oil for a pleasant scent and additional cleaning power.
Pour the mixture into a clean, reusable dish soap bottle.
Shake well before each use.
Tips to Use and Store:
Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
Shake before use, as natural ingredients may separate over time.
Use a small amount on a sponge or directly on dishes for best results.
Variations:
For a thicker consistency, add 1 teaspoon of cornstarch and heat the mixture while stirring.
Replace vinegar with lemon juice for extra grease-cutting power.
Add a teaspoon of salt to increase the scrubbing effect.
