Ingredients for making 1L of washing-up liquid:
• 0.80L hot water
• 1 tablespoon black soap (25g)
• 50g grated or shredded white Marseille soap
• 1 tablespoon bicarbonate of soda (25g)
• Optional: a few drops of your favourite essential oil
Utensils :
• 1 grater
• 1 soup spoon
• 1 measuring glass
• 1 weighing scale or measuring spoon
• 1 funnel
• 1 empty 1L pump bottle
The different stages in making your homemade washing-up liquid:
Step 1: Heat the water in your saucepan. Maintain a high temperature without boiling the water.
Step 2: Grate a cube of white Marseille soap into shavings using a grater, or pour the Marius Fabre shavings directly into the pan, then dilute them in the hot water. Stir until all the Marseille soap shavings have melted.
Step 3: Add the tablespoon of black soap and bicarbonate of soda. Stir gently until completely dissolved.
Step 4: Leave the mixture to stand in the open air for several hours without stirring. Your washing-up liquid will harden slightly to resemble a viscous paste.
Step 4a, optional: Add a few drops of essential oil.
Step 5: Pour the mixture into your empty pump bottle using your funnel.
Your homemade washing-up liquid is now ready!
