WOW. Now I really know nature has it all. I’d never heard of these clean as a whistle little munchkins until I attended a soapmaking class a few weeks ago… The information shared was AMAZING. Afterwards, people lined up for ages to purchase soap setting boxes, natural ingredients to make soap with…AND the best thing ever! SOAPNUTS. They look delicious don’t they, & yet they are, SOAP?? Yes. Soap, in a nutshell! I’m still wowed out that these actually grow on trees. Anyway… All you do is boil 6 of them up in half a litre of water for 20 minutes & you have your very own, liquid soap. Strain before filling a pump ‘foaming’ bottle & keep near the kitchen sink, bathroom vanity or laundry to wash your hands without chemicals!
Isn’t that simply 100% genius from mother earth? I think I’ll add a little essential oil to mine…& apparently, you need to use it up within two weeks. That’s coz there’s no nasties!!!! No evil preservatives. MMMM I like this soap.
I bought Soapnuts because I thought it would be so cool if it worked for doing my laundry…..but have not used them yet…. so you are happy with the results? Xlonneke
I love it Lonneke! I haven’t tried using the liquid soap on laundry, but I think it works really well as a hand soap for the bathroom, kitchen etc, or even for removing greasy substances off pots & pans.Xx
