I recently started using Dr Bronners and I'm completely obsessed!! I didn't even know it was so amazing or popular when I bought it.
Prior to purchasing, I was strolling along in my local Walgreens. This was several months ago and I looked at one of the bottles… I had seen these soap bottles dozens (maybe even hundreds) of times over the years, but until then I had never picked a bottle up to read what all that writing was about.
As soon as I started reading it though, I knew this was something I had to try… I didn't get it right then because they only had the large bottles and I didn't plan to buy one. So I waited until I found a smaller bottle on sale.
The first time I used it was just to try washing my hands….I could tell there was something magical going on with this soap right away.
So I took it in the shower to try as a shampoo. I only wash my hair 1-2 times a week so it can get a bit oily at times. The oiliness requires a small pre-wash and a second regular wash because the oils kind of 'eat up' the first bit of shampoo, lol. Well, this was not the case with Dr. Bronner's. Even though my hair was indeed oily enough to soak up any other shampoo for my pre-wash, Dr Bronners suds materialized immediately, just like they always do. And as you said, they don't last long, but they rinse out so easily and you get that clean feeling right away. I'll never understand how they've done this with the simple ingredients in this soap.
I followed up with a very small second shampoo and was pleasantly surprised at how my hair felt and how manageable it was once it dried. I don't blow dry or anything, but I do add a bit of mousse to my fine, long, straight hair while it's still damp.
Once my hair dried, I had nice volume and texture. It was quite shiny
& manageable as well. It did feel different than usual, but it was a good kind of different. I rotate almost every time I do a shampoo so I'll definitely add this to my rotation.
I can't wait to try it on makeup brushes!!!
I've used it on my plants, only in a slightly different way & with excellent results. I have a spray bottle with measurements and I add ½ tablespoon of the liquid soap to 16oz. tap water and spray all over the leaves, dirt and pot. The results were better than using a homemade neem oil mixture…. And it smelled a whole lot better than the neem also 😂
I checked inside my little humidity tent the next day and the whole environment inside was just cleaner and brighter. It worked extremely well in that regard and I haven't seen any aphids since!!
I'll also use that same spray bottle solution as an all-purpose cleaner for small, daily messes. I have the Lavender and want to try the Peppermint or Rose next.
I should also say that I did use it as a body wash the same time as I tried it as a shampoo and it did work just fine. However, I do like my luxurious sudsy body washes so I prefer to use something that lasts a little bit longer as far as suds go. Additionally, my skin tends to feel a little bit dry after Dr. Bronners rinses off. Body washes with richer lather aren't as drying so I prefer something else for body wash….but it certainly does work, and there are probably plenty of people who would prefer that type of fast & immediate clean, dry feeling.
The last thing I tried it for is shaping and holding eyebrows up in a feathered, brushed up position. Results were incredible. I didn't even have what you're supposed to have, which is the Dr bronner's bar soap, so I just used the little bit of slightly hardened residue around the lid of the liquid soap. There are some great tutorials here on YouTube that show the technique I'm referring to, but I personally loved the results that I got. Again, I used the little bit of hardened residue from the liquid formula, so I imagine the results would be even better if I did have the actual Dr Bronner's bar soap.
Sorry to write a mini novel here but I hope that somebody gets some good info from this and decides to give it a try. I've been saying it over and over for the past couple of weeks that this stuff is truly magical 🌬️🌟⚡🩸🙌🧚🏼🧜🏽♀️🔥🌵🌴❄️🌈☄️🦜🦦🐙🐚🐝🦋🍄🦄🐉🕌🗿🏛️💉💉🛸👽🧬🧫🏺🗝️🔮
Yes i use it for makeup brushes too!!
Where is your dry brush from please ?
This would of been good to watch my English bull terriers years back .. it was hard to find a soap for there skin type
Just started to be comercialized here in Portugal but still hard to find….
Please try it as shaving cream. I am AMAZED
Have you tried it on your hair yet? If so, how was it? 😊
Do you use it in your hair? I looks amazing!
Almost a little embarrassing to say but I’ve seriously never consider the pop tops on cans and possible contamination. I mean how many people have touched that can lol
Can you use it for body wash? I find that it dries up my skin.
I used to clean a nasty window and it is great
People who use Dr Bronner's to shower look so clean to me, they have this special glow.
I used it undiluted on my bathtub when I first moved in to my apartment. It had a nasty film all around from lack of scrubbing from previous dwellers. It removed it on contact. My husband was not impressed he had just bought scrubbing bubbles to the the tiles and there was a lot of scrubbing on his end to remove the gunk. I however just had to wipe and rinse 🤣.
I use the Baby Unscented, diluted 1:5 ratio, for hair washing. At first it was a little weird but then your hair takes to it. This with a ACV, 40/60 mix got rid of my scalp eczema!!!
Use the almond as body wash , peppermint and lavender as cleaners!!!! LOVE them all!!!!
Trader Joe 13.00 Whole Foods 15.00 just a FYI I love these soaps
I made my first purchase of Dr. Bronner's Soap (1 Gallon). I originally bought it to use with my herbicide and insecticide blends. I used to farm in California. Your 1:1 solution with a foam spray pump works really well in the shower, washing hands etc. I appreciate your breaking of the code for easy use.
From Wholefoods market I got Dr. Bronners liquid castile soaps in the largest bottles the peppermint one, lavender one and almond one, you like the same ones as me I first started using this one when Isaiah's mom said she loved it and used it and have been using it ever since she mentioned it as a body wash, I dilute it in a foaming pump for a hand wash, use to wash my Aveda Flax makeup brushes and other makeup brushes, and twice a week I use literally one drop to wash my eyelids with diluted, one drop is good for regular eye makeup wearers when properly diluted cleans well and the rest of the time I use a moisturizing face cleanser Aveda creme cleanser and in the hand foam pump I wash fresh produce and cans off with Dr. Bronners too before opening cans, groceries at Wholefoods, Pirates Booty aged cheddar snack… I have tried Dr. Bronners as a laundry detergent it's ok but I prefer Mrs. Meyers Honeysuckle laundry detergent or any others by Mrs. Meyers hers smell so pretty
I heard it should be diluted 1:20, not 1:1. That's a big difference. Have you tried diluting more?
She is speaking so clearly that I feel I could hear what she is saying in spite of the second language to mine. I saw Dr. Bronner's soap in the Insider's video for the first time.
(edit) I corrected some grammatical (?) errors.
Is this product available in South Africa
Take HEED To WARNING:
DON'T use Dr. Bronners soap
They LIE about Yehushua on them Dr. Bronners bottles, pls STOP using them.

Canadian? Sounds like it from how you say out and in a pinch.
If your water isn't soft and suds don't last like you say, try using boiled rainwater or distilled water. You use soooo much less!
Is it good for body?
Thanks for sharing 🌈
Lady! Please Stop! I agree Dr Bronner products are very good, however, it’s a big no to cleaning the outside of cans with soap. It is compulsive obsessive behaviour. See a doctor.
It's popular among backpackers. Back in the day I used it. Wash hair, brush teeth, wash face, wash dishes, wash clothing, and body wash. Honestly it wasn't particularly good aside from how it's multipurpose. I still use castile soap however I use it really just as hand soap.
A question I've had for a long time about Castile soaps: during rinsing and before drying with a towel, my hands seem to have a slippery film on them. I assume that that is from the oils. Should it be rinsed off completely, or left on, to nourish and/or protect the skin? If relevant, I live in a region with soft water.
Just started using it. I love how it makes my pots and stainless steel sink super shiny. It almost reminds me of Murphy’s oil soap. The unscented is the only one I use.
I cannot get an answer to my question anywhere. Can’t I use the dr bronners Castile soap undiluted on a wet sponge to wash my dishes? Once you add water to something it opens up the chance for bacteria to grow. Micro bacteria too that can’t even be seen. If i’m washing dishes in running water anyway (and i’m always wearing gloves), why can’t I use it directly to wash the dishes without pre diluting it. I understand it doesn’t need preservatives on it’s own, but once water is introduced to the product then it changes the rules. I just want to know if it’s an absolute must to pre dilute, and what the issues would be if I used the Castile soap to wash dishes with only the running water to dilute it on the dishes themselves – like regular dishsoap
FYI. Suds is a chemical added to soaps( make bubbles), suds do not clean. You may like this video too about Dr Bronner's https://youtu.be/4Sw-crbRuic
You don't need lots of suds to clean dishes.
Daiso makeup brush soap works well
