I made the misguided and unfortunate mistake of using this as a wash. My no no areas felt like they caught on fire and honey I was about to die. Learning from that I use it as a face wash now which is great for my skin. I have not had a breakout since using it. I also use it on my feet when I do pedicures and as my shampoo that I mix with aloe vera and castor oil which works on my black hair. It is really great especially on your face because it tingles.

I cannot live without Dr. Bronner’s. If you want to feel really clean and have an invigorating shower, or bath, this is the ticket. I use it with exfoliating gloves and I always feel like a new person when I get out of the shower. Somewhere, I also read a suggestion by Bronner’s, to lather up and the swathe yourself in a warm robe or warm, moist compresses for 30 minutes before rinsing. I’ve done this twice. It opens your pores and gives a skin detox like no other. You will never feel this clean with any other soap.

It’s SOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOD!! Idc what anyone says I dilute it down reallllll good and use it on my rear and lady bits and there’s a SLIGHT tingle but no burning, just don’t go in any holes and you should be good. I also clean the bathtub with it, mop the floors with it, clean the kitchen and dishes with t as well. Minty life is goalssss!!

I have been using this for a whole week now and it’s safe to say that I LOVE IT! The scent of peppermint is just at the perfect strength; it also cleans off oil very effectively.
I have replaced my hand soap, face wash, dish detergent, body soap and shampoo with this liquid soap. It makes my life so much simpler and minimalistic. Below is how I use it:
> Hand Soap: I use a foaming dispenser (an empty Dial bottle) and I added 20% of Dr.Bronner and 80% of water. It foamed up perfectly and it’s even better than any of the product that I’ve ever bought from a grocery store.
> Face Wash: Same as hand soap, the foam help cleans my face efficiently. However, it does dry my face up so I always moisturize after washing my face
> Dish Detergent: Same as hand soap, I find the foam help cleans dishes more effectively. It also removes oil easily.
>Body Wash: I use an empty soap dispenser and mix 50% of Dr.Bronner with 50% of water. Works perfectly.
>Shampoo: I have short hair, therefore I don’t use as much shampoo. I mix 30% of Dr.Bronner with 70% of water in an empty soap dispenser
I haven’t try it with floor/table/clothes cleaning so I cannot comment on that. For my experience, it works perfectly for my face/hand/body/hair/dishes and I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for an easy solution to all, or most, cleaning needs.

I purchased the peppermint scent because supposedly mosquitos don’t like peppermint … and mosquitos LOVE ME! It does seem to help keep them away. ANYWAY>>> this is a HUGE bottle and I shared it with my daughter and it still lasts a long time (you don’t need to use a lot at once). It’s thin, but lathers well. It does smell like peppermint and gets your skin squeaky clean. I definitely will reorder, but probably will get the unscented one next time. One reason is that the peppermint stings delicate areas – but it will open your sinuses! GREAT STUFF!

I first saw this on YouTube, the YouTuber I was watching used it to clean her makeup brushes, which is what I needed it for, I brought it a couple week later and used it for her first time today and I have to say it worked fantastic. You don’t need a lot I just used a little bit and used a makeup mat brush cleaner and presto clean brushes, does not take a lot of effort either. I used to use baby shampoo to clean my makeup brushes but going forward this will be my go to brush cleaner.

I’m 23 years old and over the last four months my acne had been consistently getting worse. As soon as one break out was clearing, another would pop up like clockwork. It took me a while to realize that the face wash I had been using was the cause (Deep Clean by Neutrogena). I don’t know if it was too abrasive or if the chemicals were to intense so I decided to look for a more natural alternative. I found this product through YouTube videos and I am so glad that I did. This product is an absolute Godsend! My skin has cleared in a little over a week of use, my pores have shrunk and my face just feels so smooth! The peppermint is very refreshing and cool to the skin. I also love that there are so many different uses for this product. I have tried a few different things (face wash, body wash, laundry detergent, floor cleaner, white baseboard cleaner) and I have yet to be disappointed. So pleased with this!

Amazing stuff with multiple uses. I’ve used it thus far to wash my face and shave with it, seems to have cleared up my ingrown hair problems I’ve always had since being forced to shave with a razor in basic training many moons ago. I noticed when showering with it I’m fresher in my private area longer than the usual shower gels provide, and the bathtub doesn’t leave a ring of dirt. A little goes a long way, ensure it’s diluted. A must have, can’t go wrong with this

I use Dr Bronners for my everyday hygiene needs, makes my hair soft and clean and fresh when I use it as a shampoo, makes my skin feel extra clean and healthy when I use it as a body wash, and my teeth and gums are becoming healthier I use a few drops on my tooth brush to brush my teeth and a few drops mixed in water to use as mouth wash (not the best taste but my teeth are sparkling feel cleaner than with regular toothpaste) the only issue I had was the lid was broken and some of the soap was spilled out during shipping

I brought this soap along with the tea tree, I did not dilute the soap to use it as a shower gel. I used about 2 drops on my wash cloth and wet the cloth with about a handful of water. I now have red scaring on my neck, chest and underarms. The soap (both) burned my skin. I am an AA women with med to dark skin and it burned my skin something awful!! I am not sure if I still want to use this soap. My co-worker informed my I should put 3-4 drops in a 16oz bottle and fill the rest with water. I have to tell you I am scared to even try the soap that way. Can anyone advise???

since our first purchase of Dr. Bronners peppermint castile soap we have never purchased anything else. Peppermint is our favorite though we have tried every other type. We do buy the unscented one for our 6yo daughter. The peppermint leaves a tingly feel so a little bit goes a long way. If you are new to castile soap, definitely worth giving this a try. My husband has always had a problem with breakouts on his back. once he began using dr. bronners after a few weeks he saw noticeable improvement. it definitely leaves you with a clean feeling without all the added stuff in other liquid bath soaps or bar soaps on the market. you get more for your money when you buy the two pack. and as i stated earlier a little bit goes a long way. it is best applied with a bath sponge or poof.

I was told to try this soap because I was getting a little bit of skin reaction to the liquid soap I had been using. This product is great.
I’ve tried some of their other products but the peppermint really does provide a little zing and gives you a little wake-up call in the morning.
I use it for total body soap. I use it after working out. I use it on my face. I use it on my hands. I have had no concerns and no issues with any skin reaction.
The only problem is I haven’t been able to find it in my local store. Amazon of course had it, delivered it, perfect result.
You do have to get a soap dispenser if you want to use it as a hand soap her in the shower. I picked one up at the local container store that look nice and there are no issues with it coming out of the dispenser.
Some people use this for shampoo and shaving cream. I have tried it is shaving cream. It is less than great. I am not going to risk it is a shampoo. I’ve even heard people use it as toothpaste. I’ll pass on that
Great every day so for the shower and hands. This product is a hidden gem

This stuff is awesome. I discovered this soap when I was in Maine about 30 years ago. I loved it, but I was a kid and it wasn’t readily available in my area. So I forgot about it. Then spotted it in a search and remembered how much I love it. I ordered a bottle and it was as good as I remembered. Foams up great and I love the cooling feeling of the peppermint oil. I’ve been using this soap for about 5 years now.

Pay attention here.
Do this a a requirement. I am a retired commercial diver. Worked it 24 years. Blue water, bay water, polluted ship canals, getting your pores clean to avoid infection was a mandate.
Only Dr Bronner’s did that. Anything else was just a scented soap that washed your skin but did not clean your pores
Throw all the soap ? out. Buy this. I’ve been using it since 1967.
Must be a reason “dontya think”?

This is my favorite soap, especially during the hot summertime. I promise God is in this bottle. It’s like a breath of fresh air, flowing over your skin all day! No other soap cleanses so well and makes me feel so fresh and confident, even after working 8-hour shifts in a funky warehouse. This is not a moisturizing soap, but it doesn’t leave your skin dry and itchy, either. Make sure you dilute it well before it touches your private parts, as the peppermint could cause things to get a little fiery down there. I also use this as a clarifying shampoo, a produce wash, a lingerie wash and a bug deterrent for my houseplants. Read the bottle! This stuff has so many uses. Get it!

Do yourself a favor and buy it now. I use this soap to shave, as a body wash and as a shampoo. It does all extremely well!
With this soap, my razor glides effortlessly over the skin and shaves the hair. I have never experienced any tugging, burns, cuts or dryness when using this to shave. It leaves the skin feeling clean, smooth and moisturized.
As a body wash, it works. The tingling sensation that everyone talks about, it is real! I didn’t feel it initially but minutes later, the tingles came on strong. It really does leave your body feeling clean, refreshed and energized.
I was concerned about the dilution dilemma at first. But then proceeded to use is just like I would any other liquid body wash, shaving soap and shampoo. It was perfectly fine. Not really sure what the big fuss is with that.
This is my new forever soap, shampoo and shaving soap. Highly recommended!!

I’m first going to tell u my skin type of my body and face because that’s what these reviews are lacking. On my face I have combination skin and my body is sensitive, dry, and acne/blemish prone. This soap along with using my african net is a miracle worker for my body, WAY CLEANER THAN USING A WASHCLOTH. This exfoliates the skin and removes all dead skin cells, which unclogs my pores. I’ve seen so much change in the texture of my skin as well as how much my bumps are minimized. My skin feels soft and that’s rare for my rough dry skin. THE LITTLE BUMPS ON MY FACE, BACK, AND CHEST ARE GONNNE! I couldn’t even get that using Salicylic acid. It’s been 2 months for me now and I highly recommend for sensitive skin and acne prone skin along with an African net bc unlike washcloths the net doesn’t trap dirt and exfoliates very well. You don’t need to use a lot when using the net and it’s non abrasive on the skin. NOTE: the peppermint will open up your pores and u will feel energized so don’t shower with this late at night YOU PROBABLY WON’T SLEEP 🙂

Washes and lathers every kind of skin squeaky clean.
It’s actually fun when a guest comes out and says the soap in the shower was great!
And that’s how I learned about it as well back in the day.
I don’t use skin lotions and stuff, but the girls like 100% how much better
their skin is ready for them after taking a shower with the liquid Bronners.
It doesn’t dry you out, or leave a residue.
It cleans your skin and hair perfectly to the ph it should be.
I have been using it for 40+ yrs and pack a small bottle with me
if i’m going to be staying out of town.
You’ll always feel right at home with the right soap.

I have been buying this liquid soap for years and years. I’ve tried other brands of liquid peppermint soap, but I haven’t found any I like as much as this. I just love the clean, fresh feeling you get from showering with this soap. The whole bathroom smells like peppermint. I don’t notice that it’s particularly moisturizing, but I don’t buy it for that. I use moisturizers. It’s easy to take traveling if you put it in a small plastic bottle with a tight-fitting lid. I’ve traveled with it many times and was glad to have it to use rather than hotel soap. As long as they keep making this, I will keep buying it. By the way, if you attempt to read all the wacko propaganda printed on the label, you will find it quite challenging to understand what the hell it’s talking about. But that’s OK. It claims you can use it to brush your teeth (don’t do it) or wash your hair (don’t do it) but just using it for showering or hand-washing is great.

This was a big bottle for the price. I used my soap for the very first time tonight.. can we say WHEWWWW! I didn’t like how it poured out. It was very watery, the scent of the peppermint burned my eyes, and it made my YONI screammm like I was being attacked by a K-9 dog! I didn’t try to bathe it on purpose with the soap. A little drizzle, rizzled down and it was on and popping. Overall, the soap opened up my pores and I’m smelling like a candy cane. ?

I wanted to try this product because I’ve been hearing so much about it . For the past 4 years the only soap i really used was Dove and i thought i was happy with it. But gave this a shot because i wanted something different. This soap is amazing and smells even kore amazing . You haven’t had a clean like this one ! I can officially say bye bye to Dove !
Kristyna –
I LOVE this soap. I’ve only used it as a body wash so far, and It makes me feel like a new person when I step out of the shower. It leaves me smelling strongly of peppermint for atleast a few hours, which is a really nice smell. It’s not overpowering. On top of that, I can tell this is a super natural product because I have very sensitive eyes and I accidentally flicked some of the soap in my eye while I was showering – with how powerful the smell was, I was expecting it to really burn. But it didn’t and my eyes didn’t even water. Completely painless. I love this soap!
What really sold me on it though, was when I washed my face with it. I have extremely bad acne, and most things that work for other people won’t work for me when it comes to my skin. However after using this soap one time on my face, it was a noticeable difference in the morning. My pimples were smaller, my face was less red and inflamed, and over all it just felt *better*. Super amazing.
Greg Mcateer –
I shower twice a day…always have, always will. I do not like soaps that dry my skin out and have added Dove moisturizing liquid…whatever, just to help not dry my skin out. I got this Castile soap (peppermint) for Christmas and it is amazing. A few drops on a shower sponge and it lathers up great, rinses very clean, and moisturizes amazingly. I have puppy bites and scratches that have taken forever to heal up, the Castile soap accelerated this process. You feel very tingly and clean after showering. I can’t see going back to anything else. Only problem I have is why haven’t I heard of this before. So many years wasted….

First let me start by saying I am a African American woman who bought this product on the recommendation of another AA woman.
Pros: I LOVE THE SMELL! And when i washed my hair, i needed about a dime sized amount for 1/4 of my hair and it lathered REALLY well
Cons: It completely stripped ALL the moisture and product from my hair and skin. When this product says its a degreaser, believe it! My hair felt dry and hard even in the shower with water running thru it!
Ill probably only use this to wash my hair when i want to strip all the old product from my hair. I think ill try cleaning the house with most if this instead.
Carras Perez –
I have severe allergies to chemicals and scents and this is one of the only products I can use! I use this as a body wash, shampoo, dog shampoo, surface cleaner (diluted), you name it! I do have to use a good conditioner as it does make my hair feel a little dry but I have to say the Peppermint is great for the scalp and my hair has been growing so much since I started using this! Give a try, read the bottle when you do, it’s quite entertaining, lol.

This is the go to soap for your entire body. Dr Bronner’s is the best. I’ve been using this soap since 1972. It was the first soap I used the day I got back from Vietnam. THAT was a darn nice experience after using Army soap for two years and no soap in the bush. I tried to get it when in Vietnam but could not get it shipped there. I do not know why. Probably didn’t want a bunch of GI’s running around smelling fresh and clean. Anyway, I would recommend this product to anyone, especially diabetics with sensitive skin and peripheral neuropathy. Good stuff.

If you use soap, Dr. Bronner’s is the soap for you. From washing your hands, washing the dishes, washing fresh vegetables, to washing your clothes, Dr. Bronner’s won’t disappoint. It’s concentrated, it smells great, and it’s easy on your skin. It’s a great spot remover for the laundry and it will remove that mildew smell from your towels that have been in the hamper too long. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.
S.C. –
Ive been using Dr Bronners for years, and I love it. With many soaps containing unnecessary synthetic ingredients like formaldehyde, I appreciate the all natural ingredients. I also think the company goes above and beyond most in ethically sourcing their ingredients. The peppermint scent is especially nice and the cooling sensation feels great in a hit shower and helps me get going in the morning.
I don’t think I’d recommend this product for people with especially dry skin, at least not on its own.
Beach Bummer –
An old favorite, just as good as it’s always been. The peppermint is really the only way to go (the others aren’t bad, but the peppermint is hands down the best).
I use this as body & hand soap, for shampoo (leaves my scalp feeling clean without irritation), as well as for cleaning. I recommend getting a soap pump as it is easy to pour out an excessive amount with the included dispenser cap…it lasts a long time as a little goes a long way.
Thinned down, it’s a thrifty way to refill a foaming hand soap pump.
It makes a nicely scented bath, just don’t expect a tub of bubbles from it.
The mint smell is pretty strong out of the packages but it doesn’t seem to linger excessively (it won’t leave you smelling like a candy cane factory)
timmythegeek –
Okay, this is like my 5th purchase of this soap yes I like it .
I like the scent.
I like the feel,
I like how a little goes a very long way.
I am not sure which ingredient is the one that wakes you up like a cup of coffee but it is great! I will say that I have tried a billion “mens” soap and this one is great! I use it as a body wash and it cleans everything, Oil, grease, grass and worse.
Trust me it even cleans off the hunting smells….
JennMom –
I pour 1 tablespoon of Dr. Bonner’s liquid castile soap in a foaming soap dispenser and fill it the rest of the way with filtered water to make my own foaming handsoap. Peppermint is our favorite scent. What a huge savings!
Susan –
I bought this after reading a success story from a Tumblr user who use this to fight her severe acne. Overall, I love this product. I use it mainly as a face wash, but it feels gentle and combined with the cooling effect from the ppermint it helps with after shower/wash redness.
Combined with witch hazel and aloe, this has done a good job at keeping my acne mostly under contro, as long as I used it at least once every day. A huge plus considering I used to have freally bad acne that required some of the harsher washes that irritated and dried out my skin so bad. This stuff is much more gentle and I’ve been using it every day for almost 2 years with no complaints.
Not to mention this stuff lasts forever!!!! Given I only have to use a very small amount for my face due to it being concentrated, the bottle is barely 1/5th of the way through even after all this time.
Lastly after learning more about this company and their other products, this soap as per instructions on the bottole and advice from others on the web can be used as eco friendly alternatives for so much things that need to be washed/cleaned.

Great product as usual! I love Dr. Bronner’s Peppermint Castile soap! It can be used for many things. Great when used with neem and water to get rid of aphids. 2 tbs neem oil, 2 tbs Dr. Bronner’s peppermint castile soap, 1 gallon of water. My aphid problem was gone in two weeks when sprayed under the leaves and on the stems of aphid covered plants.
