Detergents for the home

Dear hostesses, how often do you study the composition of the products that you use for cleaning, washing and washing dishes? No? But this is in vain. If necessary, read the information on the label. But there was a time when our grandmothers and great-grandmothers washed and washed kitchen utensils using only household soap. But they were much healthier than us. Is not it? After all, such a soap does not contain almost any chemical additives, which are filled with flavored and multi-colored toilet soaps. In addition, it lathers well, and fights bacteria very successfully. And why do not we, modern housewives, take care of our health and do not make our own detergent for washing dishes on the basis of this "brick", which is unprepossessing in appearance and has a very unpleasant smell. For example, to make a simple gel for washing dishes, you need no more than a third of an hour.
And for the realization of this idea, some refined, scarce or expensive components will not be needed. Only quite affordable and cheap tools. As a result, you get homemade gel, which not only rinses dishes well, easily breaks down fat, but also copes well with dirt on the stove.
To make the gel you need only 4 components:
• 25 g of laundry soap;
• 40 ml. glycerin;
• 500 ml. water;
• 15 ml. vodka.
The process of making homemade gel is very simple:
Pour water into the bucket, set on fire and bring to a boil.
In the meantime, cut the right amount of grams from a large bar of soap and rub this small bar on a grater with small cells.
Put soap shavings in a spacious bucket and fill with half of the boiled water. Mixing thoroughly and gradually pouring in the remaining water, bring the soap composition to complete dissolution of the chips.
To speed up the process, you can use a steam bath. Give the soap solution five minutes to cool, then add the remaining two components (glycerin and vodka).
Mix thoroughly again - a homogeneous soapy mass is obtained, which, after complete cooling, can be poured into a convenient container for use.
At first, the resulting composition will turn out to be liquid, but do not worry, as it cools, it thickens and acquires the consistency of a gel. When used as directed, it will form a plentiful foam, which is easily washed off with warm water.
Perhaps, unlike store-bought products, one drop of which is supposedly enough for a mountain of dirty dishes, the consumption of home gel will be slightly more. But when you consider that you can prepare 6 liters of gel from a bar of soap weighing 300 g, a home dishwashing detergent is much more economical, and not as harmful to health as its industrial counterparts.
Take a step towards health!
