10 Ways to Use Castile Soap

Anti Bacterial Cleanser

You’ll Need:

1. 3/4 cup baking soda

2. 1/4 cup castile soap

3. 1 Tablespoon water

4. 10-15 drops of Melaleuca essential oil

5. 1 Tablespoon vinegar

In a medium bowl, mix together the baking soda and castile soap. Add water and 10-15 drops of Tea Tree Oil. After the first three ingredients are combined, slowly add the vinegar. It’s important to mix it slowly because the vinegar will react with the baking soda. Stir until you reach a paste like consistency. Add a few drops of the cleaner to the rough side of a sponge for a great all-natural cleaner. Recipe from One Good Thing By Jillee.

Homemade Facial Cleanser

You’ll Need:

1. 3 Tablespoons honey

2. 1/2 cup vegetable glycerine

3. 2 Tablespoons liquid castile soap

Mix all of the ingredients together, and apply to your face and neck. Be sure to massage it into your skin for at least 30 seconds, and then rinse with warm water.

Oil Soap Plant Spray

You’ll Need:

1. 2 tsp neem oil

2. 1 tsp castile soap

3. water

Add all of the ingredients to a 24 ounce spray bottle, and shake vigorously to combine. This spray loses its effectiveness pretty quickly, so it’s recommended that you make a new batch for each use. Apply as a home remedy for plant fungal infections, insect infestations (aphids seriously don’t stand a chance against this mixture!) Apply once weekly to treat existing plant problems, and once every two weeks for matainence. Recipe from One Good thing By Jillee. 

Foaming Body Wash

You’ll Need:

1/2 Cup Rosewater

1/3 Cup Alcohol-Free Witch Hazel

2 Tb Castile Soap (The Baby Mild kind)

1-2 Oil (Use alond, jojoba, or olive oil for best results)

Foaming Soap Dispenser (Not necessary, but the recipe won’t foam without a foaming dispenser)

Combine all of the ingredients above into a foaming soap dispenser. Add the castile soap as the last ingredient. Gently shake the bottle when all ingredients are added to combine the mixture. You can also use this as a face wash!
