How should I dilute and use this soap for skin and hair?

Because Dr. Bronner’s liquid soap is three times more concentrated than many conventional soaps, small amounts go a long way. For face and body, dilute to avoid over-drying: a few drops mixed with water or apply a small pump to a wet washcloth. For hair, mix a diluted solution or use as a pre-wash scalp rinse.

• Face/body: 1–2 drops on wet cloth or palm; lather and rinse.
• Shampoo: 1 part soap to 3–10 parts water depending on hair type.
• Scalp: dilute with water and massage gently; rinse thoroughly.
• Patch test first on sensitive or acne-prone areas.

Can this product safely clean around the home and do laundry?

Yes—its concentrated, biodegradable formula works for multiple cleaning roles without synthetic detergents. For general cleaning, add a little soap to water for mopping, sink washing, or wiping surfaces. In laundry, use conservative amounts: a little concentrated castile soap cleans lightly soiled loads, and it’s especially useful for hand-washing delicates.

• All-purpose cleaning: 1–2 tablespoons per quart of water for surfaces.
• Mopping: 2–4 tablespoons in a gallon of warm water for floors.
• Laundry: 1–2 teaspoons for machine loads; more for heavier soils.
• Dishes: 1–2 drops per dish or dilute in sink water for dishwashing.

Is Tea Tree Pure-Castile soap safe for pets and acne-prone skin?

This soap is used by many pet owners and people with acne-prone skin, but because tea tree oil can be strong, it’s best to dilute carefully. For pets, use a mild dilution and rinse thoroughly; avoid contact with eyes and consult your veterinarian for very young or sensitive animals. For acne-prone skin, do a small patch test and adjust dilution to avoid irritation.

• Pets: dilute heavily (many parts water to 1 part soap); rinse well.
• Acne-prone skin: start with a light dilution and monitor skin response.
• Avoid direct eye contact and keep away from mucous membranes.
• If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a professional.

The liquid soap is biodegradable and the bottle is made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic to reduce landfill waste and resource use.
