9 ways to use Dr Bronner's Castile Soap in the bathroom
We love multi purpose natural cleaning products and Dr Bronner's castile soap is one of our favourites for being extremely versatile.
Dr Bronner's Pure Castile Liquid Soap is a natural and highly concentrated liquid cleanser that is made without any synthetic preservatives, detergents or foaming agents. It is made using a combination of water, and a variety of oils, including coconut oil, palm kernel oil, olive oil, hemp oil and jojoba oil.
The palm oil supply chain is 100% controlled by Dr Bronner's. They do not rely on outside sources of sustainable palm oil, they control their own supply chain and have confirmed that there is no deforestation or issues with the habitat of the orangutan. When grown and controlled correctly, palm trees yield a much higher output of oil than a coconut tree does.

Castile Soap in the Bathroom as a body wash
If the bottle is already in the shower to wash your face, it's easy to just wash your whole body with it. Apply one small squirt into your hands and apply to your whole body. Rinse with warm water. You can also use a wet washcloth or our sisal body cloth to help generate suds.
Castile Soap in the Bathroom as a shampoo replacement

Add roughly 2 Tbsp Dr Bronners Castile soap in an average sized tub. Use Lavender Castile soap if you want a nice relaxing fragrance. Note it won't bubble up as much a as a dedicated bubble bath will, but it still cleans!Â
