Homemade Lemon Lavender Laundry Detergent Recipe

Ingredients:

1 bar of Dr. Bronner’s lavender hand soap
1 cup washing powder
1 cup baking soda
1/2 cup citric acid
1/2 cup laundry scent booster granules
10-20 drops lavender essential oil
10-20 drops lemon essential oil
1-2 tablespoons white vinegar
Airtight container

Instructions:

Grate one bar of soap into a large bowl with a cheese grater.
Once the bar of soap is grated into the bowl then add washing powder, baking soda and citric acid & stir together
Now add laundry booster granules and thoroughly combine all the ingredients
Add essential oils (you can use any scent that you like)
Add 1 tablespoon of vinegar – at this point it will fizz, that is the vinegar reacting with the baking soda. Mix everything together really well.
The vinegar helps soften the clothes. If the mixture isn’t too wet, you can add more than 1 tablespoon, but I wouldn’t advise adding more than 2 tablespoons.
Store the mixture in an airtight container.
Use 1/4 cup per load.
