Basking in Bronner's



I love this stuff so much- it's a castile soap made from saponified oils, very natural. And, there are so many things you can do with it! 

1. Lather your body in it while in the shower. (The peppermint makes you feel tingly, like you've been kissed by a mint fairy.)
2. Wash your clothes. 
3. Dilute it REALLY well and brush your teeth with it. 
4. Clean your house; countertops, tiles, floors, dishes.
5. Put some in a spray bottle, use it as deodorant.
6. A tablespoon in a gallon of water, use it as a pesticide in your garden.
7. Shaving cream.
8. Breathe freshener and mouthwash.
9. Body rub and foot bath.
10. Rinse and spray off vegetables and fruits.
11. Camping soap. Use it on everything, it's biodegradable. 
There's a wonderful documentary about this stuff, Dr. Bronner's Magic Soapbox, that gives the history and biography of Dr. Bronner. He's a pretty interesting guy. He escaped Nazi Germany and came to America alone- where he then escaped from an insane asylum and made his way to California to make soap. His "moral ABC's" are all that writing on the soap bottles- his way of spreading his love.
