A: Thank you for contacting Dr. Bronner's! While our soaps clean dishes very well, we do not recommend using our soap in the dishwasher and currently do not offer a soap specifically for use in the dishwasher. Our soaps are great cleaners for almost any household purpose, with the only notable exception being that they should not be used in the dishwasher unless you’d like to have a bubble party on your kitchen floor! Some customers say that our soaps have worked in their dishwashers, but we simply can’t recommend them as they suds too much. Even though there are no foaming agents, added for the sole purpose of creating more foam, the fact that our soaps are highly concentrated makes them high foaming. Our soaps do a great job of cleaning the dishes, but they could cause damage to your dishwasher because it gets overfilled with suds. If you do decide to try it, we suggest using a tiny amount of soap. To handwash your dishes with our Pure-Castile Liquid Soap, we recommend a couple of methods. The first is to fill your sink with water and add either 1-2 Tbsp. (15-30 mL) of our soap. If you prefer to use a dispenser, we recommend only using a foaming pump dispenser. Our Pure-Castile Soaps are quite concentrated and inevitably, the regular pumps always clog. For use in a foaming pump, dilute ¼ cup Tbsp. (60 mL) of soap into an 8oz container of water. You are aiming for a 1:3 ratio for the soap. The last way we recommend is to make an all-purpose spray cleaner by combining ¼ c. (60 mL) of soap with 1 qt. (1 L) water or in a spray bottle. Then all you need to do is spray the dirty dishes down and scrub them. You can find a full breakdown of how to make an all-purpose spray also of Lisa Bronner's blog, Going Green with Lisa Bronner (https://www.lisabronner.com/using-sal-suds-to-clean-dishes/). When diluting our products, please note that this does reduce mixture's shelf life. Generally, diluting with tap or filtered water results in a shelf life of about 2 weeks to a month, while dilutions with distilled water can last up to 6 months. Using distilled water can also reduce natural soap separation that may occur with hard water. If you have any future questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us!

A: Hi, thank you for reaching out to us at Dr. Bronner's! Our Pure-Castile and Sugar Soaps are great options for that post-swim shower! While our products don’t contain added vitamin c to eliminate or neutralize chlorine, our gentle soaps can help reduce the smell left behind on your skin, while also minimizing dryness from consistent or over exposure to chlorine. Baby Unscented Castile Soap is a great option, however we also recommend trying our Baby Organic Sugar Soap, to keep your skin hydrated. Our Sugar Soaps contain additional organic sugar and white grape juice that act as humectant ingredients. Please keep in mind that this may require some timely washing, such as possible rinsing and repeating. Please feel free to reach back out if you need any further assistance or have more questions about our products!

A: Thank you for reaching out regarding your Dr. Bronner's product! While we do not make any products specifically for sensitive skin, many of our soaps work very well for those with skin sensitivities. Here is a list of our soaps from least to most moisturizing: Pure-Castile Liquid, Pure-Castile Bar, and Organic Sugar Soap. We have received very positive comments regarding our Baby Unscented and Tea Tree soaps from our customers with skin issues such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, acne, oily skin, or general skin sensitivities. However, we all have different skin, so we would advise first trying our product on a small area of your skin to be sure that it will work for you. For our customers with many sensitivities who are unable to use our scented varieties, we recommend trying our unscented soaps. These products have no essential oils and our Pure-Castile Liquid Soap contains almost double the amount of olive oil, making them milder than the rest. As mentioned above, we do not make soaps specific to certain skin conditions, although they may help in some cases. We would still recommend that you first consult these products with your dermatologist, to see which products they may recommend that are more suitable for your skin. Should you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to us!
