Customer Reviews of Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps Pure-Castile Soap, 18-in-1 Hemp Peppermint, 32 Ounce Bottle
Customer Review: Wonderful Soap
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using Dr. Bronner's for years! It is great for the bath, washing floors, cleaning my microfiber couch, washing the walls, cleaning the carpet ... just about everything that needs to be clean! Like the bottle says: DILUTE, DILUTE, DILUTE! This is strong stuff! For my hand soap dispensers I use a large squirt (maybe 1/4 c) and fill the rest of the way with water. It still makes plenty of suds. Similarly, I make an all purpose cleaner in a spray bottle using a squirt of Dr. Bronner's, a few drops of essential oils and water. It removes cat puke out of the carpet, pen off the couch (I have a toddler) and everything in between. Works better than the specialty (toxic) carpet cleaners you can buy. One reviewer noted it's not great for windows: True, you are better off with a vinegar mix on glass. If you buy this, you can certainly stop purchasing several products! I use this as shampoo for my two babies and occasionally for me. Again: DILUTE, DILUTE, DILUTE! this product is not meant to be used full strength.Customer Review: BEWARE !!! great Soap, usually... but this Vendor Watered down !!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
This particular Vendor I ordered through on AMAZON.com....sent me a Watered down version of a Soap I have been using for over 20 years, and I recognized immediately that is was like a thin liquid instead of the firm consistency it has Always had. Reached customer service and offered to mail this one back in exchange for a New one.....she said "no Bother....keep it.....something must have happened...like it spilled and perhaps they added water to fill back up".... she apoligized, was nice and said they would send a New One right away....and they were anxious to hear if Soap had actually changed or if it was Just that particular bottle.
New bottle NEVER CAME....and I Paid for the watered down version I have....cs' it actually cost too much to mail back. I Never write a review....don't have the time.....but I made Sure to write this one when it popped up in my email.....because I will NEVER Order this one from AMAZON again........ever. extremely dissapointed !!!!

Customer Review: Gross, dry film - Buyer Beware!
Summary: 1 Stars
Bought both the Peppermint and pure castille soap and was looking very forward to a clean shower. Used it first as a shampoo then a body wash--gross on both accounts! It became very difficult to move my fingers through my thick, curly hair, and afterwards hair felt coated in dry roughness and was unusually frizzy. Also used as a body wash, same effect. The water beaded right off my skin upon exiting the shower; I felt like someone had dipped me head to toe in dried wax. My skin was very tight and uncomfortable afterwards. I didn't experience the tingly sensations others mentioned, just a nasty film that coated my skin and stayed. I'm really disappointed in Dr. Bonners, since I've been making the switch to organic and harsh-chemical free products, I really expected to love this stuff. Instead, it clogged my pores and just made my skin and hair feel awful. After experiencing a terrible effect on skin and hair, I'm very hesitant to use it on anything else in my house.Customer Review: Magic soap
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this item for a better price but still thought I'd leave feedback. I have to admit that I love how 1-2 drops lathers sooo well. The minty scent is refreshing and it tingles which I love. As soon as you rinse it off the peppermint smell fades significantly but you are left smelling clean so that's nice. I pour about a tea spoon in 16ounces of water and make a hand soap for the bathroom. It's great to rinse Veggies with and cleaning surfaces. I am looking forward to using it as a bug repellent(spiders hate peppermint) I have not used it as a detergent yet but I will be trying that soon. The only thing I do not like is the message on the bottle. They take up soo much space with all that mess written there promoting their message instead of all the things the product is good for. I had to look online to find out what the various uses of this soap is for. I think everyone at least needs the small bottle of this product in their house or emergency supply kit.Customer Review: Ideal Liquid Soap for Showering
Summary: 4 Stars
Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Castile Soap is a very good natural soap without countless harsh chemicals like its counterparts. When purchasing this soap, I was looking for soap with natural ingredients that would not dry out the skin and that would be consistent. Some other natural soap I've tried will be good for one body part but not for another body part, i.e., it would be good for the body but not for the face or for other sensitive areas. Dr. Bronner's soap, however, is consistent and it is natural. One disadvantage of this soap is that it does leave the skin feeling dry after showering because it has no moisturizing ingredients. Adding some jojoba oil or almond oil to the solution helps with the drying though. I would recommend this castile soap to individuals looking for a safe alternative to the traditional soap with harsh chemicals that are so plentiful at the grocery store.
