Dr. Bronner’s - Pure-Castile Liquid Soap (Tea Tree, 4 Ounce) - Made with Organic Oils, 18-in-1 Uses: Acne-Prone Skin, Dandruff, Laundry, Pets and Dishes, Concentrated, Vegan, Non-GMO

I have used Dr. Bronners Peppermint Castile Soap for over 20 years. It is great as a shampoo and body wash. I also use it to bathe by dog to eliminate doggy smell. It smells great if you like peppermint and will make sensitive body parts tingly cool. You get used to it after a while. If you have normal to dry skin, you will need to use a moisturizer as this will leave your face feeling very dry. A friend uses it for oily skin and it works great. In the 1970s I could only find this product in small quaint shops in California. It was a favorite among the Hippie generation as it was touted as an all-in-one soap for bathing and cleaning virtually anything. It was also a favorite among the environmental/organic/natural groups also. There were no combination shampoo/body wash products at that time so it was a very popular product. I have purchased similar products at major drug stores and retailers but they did not contain the amount of peppermint oil and were very diluted. If I found a better product, you would not be reading this review. The label still looks like a witch doctor wrote it and has not changed much since the 70s. To date, I have not read the whole label but plan to do so someday.

This was recommended by the Sentinel Mouthguard company (excellent company) to clean my clear night mouthguard I wear for bruxism. I followed the directions listed on the Dr. Bronner site to clean a mouthguard. I thoroughly washed (using a Ultra soft toothbrush from Quantum Labs from my dentist) and rinsed my mouthguard every morning, left it to air dry, and then stored in its case during the day. Within 2 months I noticed they were starting to discolor from their extremely clear color when new to a slight yellow color. I went online to the Sentinel Mouthguard blog and found directions to “occasionally” use a 1:10 bleach to water solution to soak the mouthguard for 30 mins. I did this and they came out sparkling clear as when they were brand new. This confirmed that the Dr. Bronner soap is what discolored them. I definitely do NOT recommend using Dr. Bronner Castille Soap for cleaning a clear mouthguard. Their tout of 18 uses seems inflated and makes one wonder when used in the other 17 ways that it does the same issue, just not as noticeable. While doing my research as to the discoloration issue I found Dr. Bronner is not a Dr. This further murks the water and claims. Buyer be aware.

I am 63 and have had acne since I was 12. I thought I had tried everything and resigned myself to just keeping the break outs to a minimum. Started using this product and have not had a break out since. Wish it smelled better, but the results are amazing.

Title: Natural Soap, Naturally a Good Choice If you havent used Dr Bonners products before, than youre in for a treat. This was the 1st time I had ever used a Dr Bonners product. I initially purchased this product to test out the many benefits I had heard of tea tree oil soaps having on a wide variety of skin conditions from every day acne to rosecia. My initial impression of this soap was, one of relief as it is organic and did not contain laurel sulfate or sulfides which I am allergic and are so commonly present in many other soaps and cosmetics on the market. I was also very happy to find that it had a minimal scent, which was neither strong nor unpleasant. Many other product reviews for products containing tea tree oil, often complained about the powerful or unpleasant smell; however, that was NOT the case with Dr Bonners Tea Tree Oil Castille Liquid Soap. I was pleasantly surprised that the smell of this product, was one that was both clean and pleasant. Also, while the bottle came with a hefty price tag of approximately $13-$18 a bottle, it also came with an equally impressive product size, which helped to make that hefty price seem a little less oversized and far more understandable. While I had also read other reviews prior to my own purchase, all warning that as a liquid soap, a little bit, went a long way so only a small amount was needed. I was still foolishly unprepared for just how accurate those warning statements were, and just how little soap was needed for each use. Being used to using the many other cosmetic soaps on the market, which I guess all have the se additives to make them lather up. It took a bit of getting used to, when using a soap that did not lather or bubble at all, and which only took a very small amount, that spread so easily, smelled pleasant, and made my skin feel clean. In the end, I think I wasted far too much of my bottle of liquid soap, as I found it far too easy to over pour it, either from lack of familiarity of using nom-lathering soap or from simple misjudgment of the needed amount and/or lack of coordination dispensing from such a large bottle that was slippery and awkward to manage due to its size. However, it was also kind of interesting and neat to have a liquid body soap that could do a double duty, and act as my hair shampoo in a pinch! I tried it a few times on my hair out of curiosity, and while my hair felt clean enough, my hair also felt a bit too tangle-ish, so I would not wish to pass up using a conditioner afterwards to detangle after the shampooing. Overall, I do think there are certain benefits to ones skin from using a soap containing tea tree oil in it, and I certainly want to continue to use Dr Bonners Tea Tree Oil Castile soap, as my tea tree oil soap of choice; however, because I felt like I wasted far too much of my liquid soap, especially considering the cost. I have elected to switch from using Dr Bonners Tea Tree Oil Castile Liquid Soap at $13-$18 a bottle, over to using Dr Bonners Tea Tree Oil Castile Soap BAR SOAP at a much more reasonable cost, and controllable size (and less spill-able bar version) of $7 a bar of soap!! So long as I do not leave the bar of soap sitting and soaking in water (as with any other bar of soap, it would completely disintegrate if left to soak in water), then the bar soap version will take me a far more reasonable length of time to use up, versus the bottle of liquid soap. Plus, I will be or at least I will feel, as if I am far less likely to have wasted the majority of the soap, by accidentally dispensing too much of it each time, and wasting most of it down the drain, versus using it on myself as it was intended to be used. === PROS === * Multiple benefits to skin * Pleasant scent * A little soap goes a LONG way * Doubles as a shampoo * Can also be used as laundry detergent * Unisex, good for both genders * Large Bottle size * Organic/Natural Ingredients == CONS == * Non-lathering takes quite a bit of getting used to * Price of approx $13-$18 per bottle seems rather steep * Too Easy to waste the product by over dispensing the amount of liquid soap * Difficult to handle the bottle and dispense the soap during showering when hands are wet == I paid full price for this product and I receive neither discount(s) nor any product or manufacturer consideration(s) for my review/feedback.

I ordered it for cleaning my mu brushes but read the reviews and decided to try it on my skin. It works! Literally felt like exfoliator. I have sensitive skin so Im skeptical about anything that can potentially irritate it. But it was awesome. I only used it on one area- lower jaw line and neck because Ive been having breakouts there...maybe from the masks, possibly makeup or more than likely hcg injections but I felt super clean. Probably wont use daily some oil on the skin is good. Will definitely add to my regimen with other products.

Me gusta que no tiene olor, genera muchísimo espuma con poca cantidad de champú.

I wish I liked this product more but I wont buy it again. I used it mainly for cleaning dishes and pots and it seemed to always leave a filmy residue on them. The smell is pretty over powering if youre sensitive to smells. It also doesnt suds up at all. That might not be important but I dont have the confidence that its doing a good job cleaning.

works well

No bad smell and works

Get this between you crack and you will feel clean as all heck
