Homemade Dish Detergent

Have you ever read the ingredient list on soap? If you have you have probably seen words like "Pentasodium Pentatate,  Ammonium C12-15 Pareth Sulfate, and Sodium Dodecylbenzene Sulfonate. I find these words extremely scary mainly because they clean dishes that I eat food off of. In the process of me trying to weed out the chemicals in the house I have found this amazing dish detergent that really gets your dishes sparkling.



What you will need:
 1 Cup Super Washing Soda or Baking Soda 
1 Cup Borax
1/2 Cup Kosher Salt
1/2 Citric Acid 
Lemon Oil

You can buy all of these at your Walmart or local grocery store which is pretty great!

Mix super washing soda, Borax, citric acid, and salt together with a wooden spoon. 



The uses for things like citric acid and borax are immense! I will be putting up a post using citric acid in a bath bomb and some laundry soap using borax.

Same with the Lemon Oil their will be more posts coming on how you can use that too!


Enjoy!!
