This DIY dishwasher soap is so powerful it can probably beat any one you get from the store! It also smells heavenly thanks to the addition of essential oils. You just need to place a couple tablespoons of this natural dishwasher soap in your dishwasher next time you want to do the dishes and they will come up fresh and spotlessly clean!

I’m going to be honest with you, every time someone told me to try all natural cleaning products I was hesitant. I used to think they were not that powerful and that they couldn’t get the job done like the store bought ones, with their shiny tags could. Oh, boy! I was so wrong!

This recipe calls for a couple of all natural ingredients you probably alredy have on hand or can get at your local supermarket, nothing weird or complicated here! Baking soda cuts through the grease so it’s the main reason your dishes come out clean and shiny. Dish soap helps to create the foam so every single spot gets tackled. Vinegar is a powerful antibacterial and finally salt gets rid of all the water stains so your dishes and glasses come up sparkly!
