Must dissolve first!
You determine the dilution ratio based on how bubbly you like your hand soap.
Starting ratio:
Cut the bar into 8 equal parts.
Slice it lengthwise first, then cut it in half two times on the short side. This will give you 8 equal pieces.
- Drop one part (about 0.35 grams) into 2 cups of water.
- Let sit until dissolved.
- For unscented, add 5–10 drops of your favorite essential oils for scent.
- Fill your container and dispense as usual.
If you prefer a more bubbly hand-washing experience, use less water.
No real effort required—just drop the bar (or a piece) of the hand wash concentrate into water, and it will completely dissolve within a few hours. Use regular tap water; no hot water, stirring, or mixing is required.
Choosing a dispenser
We highly recommend using a foaming dispenser due to the thin viscosity of the liquid hand soap.
There are many pumpers on the market, so we cannot guarantee this liquid hand soap will work well in every one of them.
However, we encourage you to first refill a dispenser you already own.
💡 Customer feedback: Many have had success using Tangie’s refillable liquid soap in regular pumpers, squeeze bottles, and even mason jars.
This soap is not homogenized and may settle between uses.
You do NOT need to shake the mixture before using.
A gentle movement of the soap will quickly swirl it back together.
Pro tip: Grab your soap dispenser by the top of the pumper, tilt it forward slightly, then set it back upright before dispensing the soap. This small movement is enough to reintegrate the ingredients.
More for Your Money
No matter what dispenser you choose, you will get to refill it for less than $0.20 per ounce. Only $1.60 to refill a standard 8-ounce container!
Pack a piece for your travels and never have to use chemical-filled hand soaps at hotels.
Store the unused portions until you are ready to make liquid hand soap. Shelf life is 2+ years. After 2 years, the scent may not be as vibrant, but the efficacy of the soap will not be diminished.
Go ahead—take a piece when you camp. This all-natural soap concentrate can be used for hand washing, showers, dishwashing, and more.
Even though the soap is made with natural ingredients and is biodegradable, it is always recommended to use and dispose of it at least 200 feet away from any body of water.

This product saved me from throwing away my $70 simplehuman foaming soap dispenser, which wouldn’t dispense properly with Dr. Bronner’s liquid soap – but it does with Tangie’s! Even better, Tangie’s formula is much superior and there’s no plastic bottle taking up space in my cabinet. Will forever be a customer!

These bars are a great alternative to normal liquid soap refills, and pretty easy to use. No plastic, they take up much less space, and they’re roughly the same price per oz of liquid soap (after mixing with water). I especially appreciate the last part, because I feel like many zero-waste companies don’t make products that are feasible alternatives to their plastic counterparts (due to being 2-3x as expensive).
Angie Ringler –

I’ve bought many non toxic hand soaps- usually liquid concentrates- and they never foam well. I tried this on a whim & was so pleasantly surprised. It foams up so nicely! I put it in an automatic foaming dispenser & my child actually looks forward to washing her hands. Highly recommend.
Walton Burns –
Works well, foams up well, and I love the unscented option personally, as well as the whole no-plastic thing!
judymar –
This is the best hand soap that I have ever used! And no plastic, which is great.

Just tried this for the first time, and am loving it! Love that it’s unscented, and it foams up nicely in my foaming pump dispenser! I would highly recommend this!
Angie Ringler –
Just what we love hearing! Thank you for taking time to leave a review.

This handsoap works well. It foams up nicely and does as well as typical handsoaps at cleaning off dirt and odor.
We found that it is not quite as effective at cutting through grease and oil on hands as some of the soaps out there. But it does do the job and it does it without the petrochemicals and synthetics.
We used to mix the soap for multiple dispensers in one big container and then fill all the dispensers, but we found that it didn’t always diffuse equally and so the dispenser we filled first would get less-concentrated liquid from the top and wouldn’t foam up as nicely. So now we dissolve the soap directly into each individual dispenser.

Wonderful you found a easy and effective way to refill all your foaming pumpers. We here at Tangie, we also dissolve the hand wash concentrate directly into the dispensers. We simply to keep a small jar with pre-cut pieces of hand wash under the sink and drop one piece in when the dispenser gets low. We really appreciate your detailed review. It can add value to others decision process when making a new purchase.
