Does anyone make a liquid soap for a pump bottle? I have never seen goats milk liquid soap. There is probably a reason but I can't figure it out! Can I make a liquid soap from a bar of handmade soap? Would it be too gloppy for a pump? Would it go bad? I love handmade soap and natural ingredients. I also love keeping my sink area clean and visitors prefer not to use bar soap that has been used even just at the sink. (Silly I know, but true.) If anyone can figure out what I'm asking please help! Connie

I have made liquid soap including goats milk liquid soap. If made with goat's milk the color will be darker - darker than I like. The soap is not as thick as commercial which bothered me at first but not any more! I do love it and love knowing exactly what's in my soap.
I tried making liquid soap with grated soap. There are a lot of recipes on the internet for it, but I didn't care for it. I couldn't get a consistent product. One day I would think it was perfect and the next day it would be too thick. I do sell my soap so that wasn't good enough.
I make my soap with Potassium Hydroxide (bar soap uses sodium hydroxide (lye)).
Thanks Penny! That site answered a lot of my questions and helped me understand why i don't see more liquid soap for sale. I felt like the grated soap would be a problem based on the posts about liquid laundry soap! Connie
