Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Pure-Castile Soap —
I don't use the Peppermint Dr Bronners. Personally I use the Baby (unscented) for bath and body, and the Tea Tree for dishes and other cleaning. I love this stuff. At first I didn't, because I was using WAY too much. I now use a ratio of no more than 1 of soap to 4 of water. We use a foaming dispenser now which makes it so we can use even less soap to water and still get the benefits of the soap. What takes getting used to is that it really is *soap* and not detergent, which is what almost all commercial "soap" actually is - including shampoos. We use it on our skin in the shower and hands at the sink. It's amazing for my face. We haven't used it on our hair so I can't attest to that. It was leaving a film on our dishes, until I added a teaspoon of salt (hard water) AND lowered the ratio down to about 1:4 of soap to water. Again using the foam dispenser. It *seems* you need a lot more, because you have to put more on the sponge during washing, but you end up using a lot less because it really is very little soap that you're using. We've had 2 gallons of soap for about 5 months. We haven't used half of it. There are 3 adults and one teenage boy in our household, and we don't have a dishwasher. While it seemed expensive when I first bought the soap, it was definitely a good buy.
