I re-use an empty Foaming Hand Soap dispenser for all liquid baby soap I buy, and I've found it makes liquid soap go way further.

Shampooing my baby's hair or washing a slippery baby is much easier when I can squirt foam soap out of a dispenser.

I usually put an inch of liquid baby soap (Johnsons, Aveeno, etc.) in the dispenser, fill the rest of the bottle with water, give it a good shake, and it's ready to use.

I have also bought an empty Cuisipro foam pump dispenser from a kitchen/bath store, which also works well.

Many products now come in foam pump bottle styles, which can be rinsed out and used for this purpose.

I've been saving lots of money by stretching one bottle of liquid soap about five times instead of using it straight from the container.

Thanks to Suzie Mah for this Frugal Baby Tip!

    I have been wondering if you could reuse those things! I remember a friend that had something from Pampered Chef that made foam soap with just a little liquid soap and water. I really love the foam soap. It doesn't get up under my rings when I wash my hands the way other soaps do. Thanks for this tip!
