Have you ever felt liquid soap bottles emptying in the blink of an eye? The money literally flows through your hands along with the soap foam. In fact, for effective cleaning, one-third or even one-fourth of the usual amount is sufficient.
According to Milli.Az, this method is quite simple: whenever a small amount remains at the bottom of the soap bottle, add warm water in a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio and shake well.
The soap base mixes perfectly with water without losing its cleaning properties. Diluted soap sometimes foams better than its concentrated form. One bottle of soap can last not one week, but a month or even longer.
Some people go further by putting a rubber ring around the dispenser's neck. This limits the movement when pressing the cap and ensures less soap comes out each time. However, dilution with water is a simpler and more effective method because you adjust the substance itself according to your need, not the mechanism.
Along the same logic, you can save on the following products as well:
- Shower gels
- Shampoos (if a lighter texture satisfies you)
- Dishwashing liquids
Using less soap also means buying less plastic packaging and reducing waste. This is a small but important step that reduces the burden you put on nature.
Do not overdo it with water so that the product does not completely turn into water and lose its cleaning structure.
