Q: Can I use this on VEGAN leather seats in my car? Does this contain alcohol as an ingredient? What is the dilution/ ratio to water?
A: Hi, thank you for your interest in Dr. Bronner's! While both our Pure-Castile Liquid Soap and Sal Suds Biodegradable Cleaner can work very well to clean leather car interiors, it is important to reach out to the manufacturer in the case that there is a special cleaner for this surface. Rest assured that if the finish manufacturer calls for a mild cleaner, both all-purpose sprays fit the bill. If you have a surface that is unusual, spot-testing is always a good idea. While Castile Soap is a great cleaner, Sal Suds is great for spot-treating carpets and for cleaning leather and microfiber furniture. It’s also great on cars and for degreasing engines. Depending on what you have on hand, either the Sal Suds All-Purpose Spray (1 Tbsp. in a quart of water) or the Castile All-Purpose Spray (¼ c. in a quart of water) will do a quick clean. If the leather needs to be nourished, you may want to consider a leather polish made from ⅓ c. vinegar with ⅔ c. olive oil and ½ tsp. pure essential lemon oil. Shake this up and rub it on with a soft rag. We do want to mention that if you are using our Pure-Castile Soap and have hard water, it is possible to encounter some mineral build-up. Rest assured that this is completely normal as the interaction of hard water, and even soft water, with any true soap (not synthetic detergent-based soaps), can leave behind a thin film of minerals that appears as residue or “soap scum. Please note that our products are not specifically formulated for interior car cleaning, and we have not tested them for all types of fabrics, including vegan leather. Our Organic Hand and Body Lotion, Organic Hair Crème, and Organic Hand Sanitizer are the only products we currently manufacture that contain alcohol as an ingredient. Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

Q: Is this castile soap safe to use with infants and children? If so, up to what age?
A: Hi Ns, Thank you for reaching out. If you would like to use our products for babies or young children, we recommend using our Baby Unscented Castile Soap. Please note that none of our products are tear free, so we recommend keeping this product away from the eyes. We also recommend adding a few drops of soap to a washcloth, or diluting the soap a bit.

Q: What's the difference between Pure Castile Soap vs the 18 in 1 Hemp soap?
A: Hello AC, the main difference is the scent. The Dr. Bronner's 18-In-1 Hemp Pure-Castile Liquid Soap contains peppermint and the Dr. Bronner's Pure Castile Soap contains lavender.

Q: Is this an anti bacterial soap?
A: Soap that is labeled as “antibacterial” is any soap or detergent that has had active microbial ingredients added to it. Because our soap does not have these specific ingredients added to it, it cannot be labeled as “antibacterial.” However, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration published a report indicating that soap and water is just as effective in mechanically removing microbes as antibacterial soap is at killing microbes. In addition, antibacterial soap can kill “good” microbes along with the bad, and often contains known toxins such as Triclosan. For these reasons we believe our soap is ultimately safer and just as effective as an antibacterial agent, even though is not labeled as such.
