It also feels amazing to use the peppermint scent as a body soap (so refreshing!). We first got turned on to it at the hospital. The nurses gave it to us to wash pump parts and bottles. A little goes a long way. Great stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-824028 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 13:01:45 +0000 sarac 824028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I diluted the tea tree oil soap about 3 to 1. The unscented I just use straight up, but just a little bit. I keep meaning to try the rose water variety. Be sure to look for it in bulk at natural grocery stores - much much cheaper that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823885 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 11:06:34 +0000 citymouse 823885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use it for a lot! Currently: Body Wash (It dilutes with the water in the Loofah) Hand Soap (Dilute with Water) Cleaning products, Detergent Booster, cleaning Makeup Brushes, etc... Agree with @Mrs. 64 that a little goes a long way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823712 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 09:35:46 +0000 autumnlove 823712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only use it to wash my hands and makeup brushes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823703 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 09:28:13 +0000 allison 823703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coacheswife123: I use it straight-up, and it works fine, but it is a little bit drying for me. I prefer the bar for bathing. I've started diluting the liquid, but I end up using 2x as much, so I don't think it really makes sense for me to dilute.</p> <p>I also use it for LO, but definitely dilute that.</p> <p>I really like it because the ingredients are organic and natural. No SLS, parabens, etc. I just feel better using it on my skin, knowing that whatever I use is absorbed into my body/bloodstream. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823623 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 08:24:56 +0000 mrs. 64 823623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use it for body wash and for shaving. It is so nice for shaving and a little goes a long way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823611 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 08:13:57 +0000 pl0508 823611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So do you always have to dilute the liquid soap ? Like, I couldn't just pour it on a bath puff and shower with it ? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823579 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 07:50:26 +0000 raintreebee 823579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@maybebaby: I just use the bar with a washcloth in the shower. It is incredible that a bar of natural soap cured what lots of prescription and OTC drugs couldn't! I would pay lots of money for that soap if I had to. :). Tea tree oil is an amazing substance. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823522 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 06:53:29 +0000 avivoca 823522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: @sarac: I am going to have to pick some up today! NOTHING has gotten rid of my sweaty boob rash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823514 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 06:44:14 +0000 maybebaby 823514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: Did you use it diluted/in a bath/how? Never heard of this, good to know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823400 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 00:09:17 +0000 sarac 823400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: SERIOUSLY THIS. I started using the tea tree oil one to cure summer sweaty boob rash that I'd had for years. Tea tree oil is an antibiotic, so it's great for tons of things like that. Eventually it started to dry out my skin a bit too much, and I switched to unscented. </p> <p>It's just a really good, mild soap. No residue, doesn't dry. Very natural. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823314 Fri, 31 May 2013 22:43:32 +0000 raintreebee 823314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>TMI but the tea tree oil ones cured an external yeast infection that had been plaguing me for a loooong time. I literally had tried everything. Dr bronners is a life saver for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823312 Fri, 31 May 2013 22:41:00 +0000 maybebaby 823312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use them in a lot of homemade cleaning products (counter cleaner, bath spray, etc.) I also put a tbsp or two in my bath to relax (lavender!) I know there are lots more uses but I haven't explored too much beyond these. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-use-dr-bronners-soap#post-823285 Fri, 31 May 2013 22:10:49 +0000 pl0508 823285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Explain the draw to me. They smelly yummy but that's pretty much all I know about them. What do you use them for ?? I'm a product junkie - but haven't tried this yet ! </p>
