Dr. Bronner’s 18-in-1 Pure-Castile Soaps

I've been a fan of Dr. Bronner’s 18-in-1 Pure-Castile Soaps for a few years.  I love that they are vegan, not tested on animals, non-gmo certified, fair trade and organic.  The minimal ingredients are a big win as well - especially when that includes some essential oils!

The company itself is very into social activism and philanthropic work - do-gooders :)  They refer to themselves as the "Fighting Soap Company" - I like that.

Major causes they have focused on include:

• Organic integrity in personal care
• Promotion of authentic Fair Trade
• Re-commercialization of industrial hemp in the U.S.
• Labeling genetically engineered foods (those containing GMOs)
• Animal rights and protection

With a resume like that, this is a company I want to support!

I like to refer to these soaps as magic soap, because there are so many ways to use them:

• Face
• Body
• Hair
• Food
• Dishes
• Laundry
• Mopping
• Windows
• Pets
• So much more...

I am currently using the Almond version (smells yummy) for hand soap, as it's so hard to find non-antibacterial soap these days.  I also love it as a body wash and it suds up nicely to use in place of shaving cream.  Love this little multitasker!
