I agree that it's easier to just buy detergent from the store than to make it. But this craft is the easiest I have ever read on soap making. You don't have to wait a couple of months for it to set, it's ready when you are. I hope none of these ingredients hurt my skin and or clothes. Thanks for the idea.
