My foaming hand soap was such a hit that I decided I would make some holiday scented foaming hand soap recipes! They are a great way to bring your favourite holiday scents into your home without spending a ton of money and without adding unnecessary chemicals!
I have listed the different scents below and if you scroll to the bottom of the post you will see the soap base recipe!

10 Holiday Scented Foaming Hand Soap Recipes with Essential Oils
Some of these blends use citrus essential oils. If you choose to make a blend with citrus, I would recommend using a glass foaming hand soap bottle. You can see some examples HERE.
Base Foaming Hand Soap Recipe
WHAT YOU NEED:
- 2 Tablespoons of Dr. Bronner’s Castile Soap (I get mine from Amazon HERE or Costco)
- 1 1/2 Tablespoons of Grapeseed oil (this is what I used but I think fractionated coconut oil would work just as well if that is what you have on hand).
- Essential oil blend of choice as listed above
- 1 1/2 cups of water
- A recycled foaming hand soap bottle (If the blend you are using includes citrus essential oils, then use a glass bottle like the ones seen HERE).
HOW TO MAKE IT:
- Rinse and clean your foaming hand soap bottle.
- Add 2 Tbsp of Dr. Bronner’s soap, 1 1/2 Tbsp of grapeseed oil and eo blend of choice (see recipes below) into the empty bottle.
- Add 1/2 cups of water to the bottle.
- Screw the pump top on to the bottle and you are ready to use!
HELPFUL TIPS:
- Do not shake the bottle once you add the water. You will notice that the soap interacts with the water as soon as it is added and shaking could cause the bottle to overflow with soap suds.
- Some of these blends use citrus essential oils. If you choose to make a blend with citrus, I would recommend using a glass foaming hand soap bottle. You can see some examples HERE.
