There's lots of hand wash formulas at Susan Barclay Nichols's Point of Interest.

Also Humbleebee And Me

It's very simple to make. But I think you should search there as both blogs are very informative

Sure,thank you

Here's a really basic gentle handwash from my collection ....

Phase	Ingredients	%
A	Xanthim Gum/Guar Gum	1.5
A	Vegetable glycerine	20
	you can mix gums with water but I find
	using glycerine is better. I heat my glycerine
	then add gum and whisk and whisk. Allow to cool as working with phase B
Phase B
B	Decyl glucoside	6
B	Coco Glucoside	5
B	Cocamidopropyl Betaine	10
B	water-soluble extracts	1
B	Distilled water	55
B	preservative	1
B	essential oil fragrance	0.5
	you don't really need to heat surfactants like you would in usual formulas instead add surfactants then water then whisk in the glycerine + gum mixture stir gently until combined.
phase C	pH testing
C	citric acid or l-arginine as required
	to lower pH: add citric acid solution as needed to raise pH use a 10% l-arginine solution

I have lots of formulas but this is a pretty simple one. I use Solagum™ AX (Acacia Senegal Gum & Xanthan Gum) as a thickening agent when making "natural" formulas.

Hope this helps.
