I made a quadruple batch of my beloved dish soap. I scented it with lemon and orange essential oils, heavier on the lemon, of course. And I added one softgel of vitamin E for winter dish hands.
I am not as happy. The vitamin E makes it a bit more greasy that I like. My glasses are a bit smeary. Ewww!
I added about a cup and a half more water to the entire batch and made sure the water is super hot, using gloves to wash the dishes and this has helped.
Sooo, no more vitamin E oil in the soap. I will save it for the lotion bars that I can use after getting the dishes done. Lesson learned.
I still will only use this dish soap. Making the large batch was just as easy to make and is being stored in a 1/2 gallon mason jar. I won't have to make a new bottle every week now. I can make it stretch 3-4 weeks! Yay!
