Dr. Bronner’s - Pure-Castile Liquid Soap (Tea Tree, 16 ounce) - Made with Organic Oils, 18-in-1 Uses: Acne-Prone Skin, Dandruff, Laundry, Pets and Dishes, Concentrated, Vegan, Non-GMO

Title: Natural Soap, Naturally a Good Choice If you haven't used Dr Bonner's products before, than you're in for a treat. This was the 1st time I had ever used a Dr Bonner's product. I initially purchased this product to test out the many benefits I had heard of tea tree oil soaps having on a wide variety of skin conditions from every day acne to rosecia. My initial impression of this soap was, one of relief as it is organic and did not contain laurel sulfate or sulfides which I am allergic and are so commonly present in many other soaps and cosmetics on the market. I was also very happy to find that it had a minimal scent, which was neither strong nor unpleasant. Many other product reviews for products containing tea tree oil, often complained about the powerful or unpleasant smell; however, that was NOT the case with Dr Bonner's Tea Tree Oil Castille Liquid Soap. I was pleasantly surprised that the smell of this product, was one that was both clean and pleasant. Also, while the bottle came with a hefty price tag of approximately $13-$18 a bottle, it also came with an equally impressive product size, which helped to make that hefty price seem a little less oversized and far more understandable. While I had also read other reviews prior to my own purchase, all warning that as a liquid soap, a little bit, went a long way so only a small amount was needed. I was still foolishly unprepared for just how accurate those warning statements were, and just how little soap was needed for each use. Being used to using the many other cosmetic soaps on the market, which I guess all have the se additives to make them lather up. It took a bit of getting used to, when using a soap that did not lather or bubble at all, and which only took a very small amount, that spread so easily, smelled pleasant, and made my skin feel clean. In the end, I think I wasted far too much of my bottle of liquid soap, as I found it far too easy to over pour it, either from lack of familiarity of using nom-lathering soap or from simple misjudgment of the needed amount and/or lack of coordination dispensing from such a large bottle that was slippery and awkward to manage due to its size. However, it was also kind of interesting and neat to have a liquid body soap that could do a double duty, and act as my hair shampoo in a pinch! I tried it a few times on my hair out of curiosity, and while my hair felt clean enough, my hair also felt a bit too tangle-ish, so I would not wish to pass up using a conditioner afterwards to detangle after the shampooing. Overall, I do think there are certain benefits to one's skin from using a soap containing tea tree oil in it, and I certainly want to continue to use Dr Bonner's Tea Tree Oil Castile soap, as my tea tree oil soap of choice; however, because I felt like I wasted far too much of my liquid soap, especially considering the cost. I have elected to switch from using Dr Bonner's Tea Tree Oil Castile Liquid Soap at $13-$18 a bottle, over to using Dr Bonner's Tea Tree Oil Castile Soap BAR SOAP at a much more reasonable cost, and controllable size (and less spill-able bar version) of $7 a bar of soap!! So long as I do not leave the bar of soap sitting and soaking in water (as with any other bar of soap, it would completely disintegrate if left to soak in water), then the bar soap version will take me a far more reasonable length of time to use up, versus the bottle of liquid soap. Plus, I will be or at least I will feel, as if I am far less likely to have wasted the majority of the soap, by accidentally dispensing too much of it each time, and wasting most of it down the drain, versus using it on myself as it was intended to be used. === PROS === * Multiple benefits to skin * Pleasant scent * A little soap goes a LONG way * Doubles as a shampoo * Can also be used as laundry detergent * Unisex, good for both genders * Large Bottle size * Organic/Natural Ingredients == CONS == * Non-lathering takes quite a bit of getting used to * Price of approx $13-$18 per bottle seems rather steep * Too Easy to waste the product by over dispensing the amount of liquid soap * Difficult to handle the bottle and dispense the soap during showering when hands are wet == I paid full price for this product and I receive neither discount(s) nor any product or manufacturer consideration(s) for my review/feedback.

I mean, I really cant say much except... oh wait, YES I CAN!! This stuff is unbelievably useful. As a male college student, I work with a very low budget but I still would buy the acne clinique system, lotions, and s*** for my body to treat individual things I didnt like. acne set for obviously acne, certain lotion to keep me moisturized, and certain lotion to rid me of random blemishes and stuff. I would buy different body washes but all of them just made my skin angry in certain areas (Im a freak about my skin, and so ANY blemish is irritating to me). I bought Dr. bronners tea tree, and guess what?? Literally does all of that stuff for me. 1.) Its the perfect face wash for guys, maybe not girls idk. My skin would get oily easily while Im home in Hawaii and this stuff does great at oil control plus moisture But when it got to winter time and I thought this would dry my skin out back at school in Indiana, IT DIDNT! I dont know why but it cleared up all my acne, and I have flawless skin, all over my body now. Maybe my body just hated the chemicals, or maybe tea tree is just amazing (I also have lemon and notice that it also does a good job at keeping blemishes away). I also use this as a shampoo, and was shocked to realize that it is also the perfect shampoo for my hair. I have pretty thick hair though, and so it leaves it clean, smooth, and soft but it doesnt dry out and fro up. I also use this as a cleaner. I mix 1 part of tea tree, 1 part of lemon, and then 20 parts water in all. Cleans stuff like a boss, and people always comment how my place is so clean. I also use this as my laundry detergent. And once again, keeps my going out clothes nice and my regular every day clothes nice also. Its very gentle. I also use this for shaving!! Its perfect for shaving. It leaves your skin moisturized after and it feels really smooth. WARNING: I will say this, as soon as you wash your body with it, it kinda feels weird on your skin for like 5 minutes. Like you used a bar soap. But honestly, just wait 5 minutes after your shower and you will feel how good it is on your skin.

Great bodywash

Really like the antiseptic qualities of this soap ["TTO" hereafter.] I use in in a mix with Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Oil castile [liquid] soap ["PO"], as the PO tends to be a bit overpowering [invigorating to the skin, but the smell is strong enough to give you a headache] when used straight. OTOH, the PO is about 1/2 the price of the TTO, so using the PO. as an extender for the TTO has decided economic benefits. As the title of my review suggests, the Dr. Bronner soaps lather up nicely & so will last a decent length of time, but there's a trick to this: the "dispenser" caps provided will either dribble an inadequate amount, or if you give the bottle a squeeze, blort out too much, wasting product. The key is you *must* use a washcloth to get the best mileage out of the soap, and then transfer the soap into a re-purposed pump dispenser [mine came from a bottle of Walmart's "Equate" house-brand baby shampoo, originally.] Then you can get a consistent amount of soap dispensed onto the washcloth [one or two pumps, whatever you find works best after some experimentation] and distributed evenly using the washcloth. Showering becomes truly quick & efficient after that: in fact, there's barely enough time for my beard to soften up for shaving before I'm done with the preliminaries [ie, everything else!] Still wish it was a trifle less dear, but sometimes life's little luxuries are worth it. :-)

We are a family that deals with a couple of different skin issues. On a journey to rid our house of chemical laden products, Dr. Bronners obviously came up in research. I am so very grateful that we decided to switch to this. The tea tree soap is a great choice for skin issues because it is naturally antibacterial and reduces inflammation and itchiness. It is so soothing on our skin and has helped my partner with dyshidrotic eczema and myself with dermatitis herpetiformis. I have also replaced my face wash with it and my acne is nonexistent. Other uses include: antibacterial hand soap when diluted and used in a foaming dispenser, all-purpose cleaner, and fungus gnats that like to live in houseplants. They especially hate the stuff and my houseplants are much healthier.

I like that it's natural, good for skin, helps combat acne while being slightly moisturizing. Smell isn't quite pleasant but it doesn't linger once rinsed off. It's also not an offensive smell; simply not one I'm used to. It does require being diluted with pure water; otherwise, it's too strong & can cause some itching but that dissipates soon enough. Kinda' wondering if I added some other essential oils to mask the smell of the Tea Tree, would this diminish the effects or simply mask the scent?

Nice scent, a classic. I buy online because it's not always easy to find locally.

I am sure this product is what has started to send my pimples away !! I never had pimples ever not even growing up and somehow with age they just started for some yrs now on my face and they were bad and I mean bad with loads of black marks left behind !! but since I started using this to wash my face I barely see any pimples on my face literally none !! Once in awhile one may pop up when my period is close but that is it ! And I have just been using this a few weeks not long so I am so happy with this product ! I will Keep monitoring and see what happens over the next few months and take it from there. I just need work on the marks now.

Composition niquel. Désinfecte les boutons (tea tree) et nettoie bien la peau. Je l'utilise comme nettoyant visage après mettre démaquillée, tous les soirs et j'en suis satisfaite. A utiliser avec un produit très hydratant (huile de noisette pour ma part). Je recommande.

I’ve been using Dr Bronners Castile liquid soap for ages. I love the tea tree but it’s not always easy to find so I was very happy when I discovered it on Amazon. The supplier sent it very quickly so that was much appreciated.

Great strong smell But very runny. Like water. And after a few washes is very drying and leaves skin really itchy

We bought a bigger bottle and we are using it for our dishwasher, our washing machine, in the kitchen and in the bathroom. It works for everything just perfect and has a nice but not too strong tea tree smell
