Clean Earth Essentials Detergent Bar: made using recycled oil!
Locally made using recycled oil from cafes and restaurants, this detergent bar (approx. 110g; or 1L of liquid soap) closes the loop in household waste. Used oil from cafes and restaurants is filtered, cleaned and then mixed with other minimal ingredients, making a solid bar that you can use in the kitchen, laundry, or any other space that else needs cleaning.
Instructions: use the detergent bar for dishes or as a laundry detergent. For dishes, simply scrub the bar into a dish cloth/scrubber to lather on the product, then use the cloth/scrubber to wash your dishes. For laundry, use a grater to shave the entire bar into small pieces, place the grated soap in a bowl with 15g bicarb soda and 1L of boiled water, then stir until combined. Once completely cooled, store in a bottle or jar and use the liquid detergent as you would any other in your washing machine.
