Dr. Natural Castile Liquid Soap - Multi-Use Body Wash, Shampoo and Face Wash - Hydrating Body Soap for Skin, Hair, Pets and Home - Lavender - 946 ml

It’s a great product but I ordered to UAE and by time it arrived the bottle had leaked - it wasn’t packaged other than flimsy paper envelope

I never dreamed I'd be writing a review of a castile soap brand but this product is special and deserves a shout-out. First, the lavender scent is gorgeous; vibrant but natural and not over the top. A very little bit of soap lathers beautifully and goes a long way. I used to use Dr. Bronner's but it was kind of harsh on my skin and it's overpriced. Dr. Natural's is thoroughly cleaning and I think better than the average; various body odors are wiped out and don't return for a while. It is also is quite gentle. I have combination skin and it is a delightful, effective face wash, getting rid of and preventing break-outs and leaving my skin dewy and not dried out. Ditto for its use as a hand wash. And the cost doesn't break the bank. I also admire that, according to the company website, 70 percent of their workforce consists of special needs people. Such a worthy cause plus the quality and reasonable price has made this brand my new go-to.

I bought Dr. Natural as a cheaper alternative to Dr. Bronner and I'm giving it five stars because it gets me clean, I especially like the pump, and it sits perfectly in the corner of my tub. I use five pumps per shower and the lather is just as good as Dr. Bronner and so is the smell. I'm not sure if Dr. Bronner is more concentrated and one would use less however so is it a bargain? I can't say for sure. Dr. Natural currently says it partners with the Center for Vocational Rehabilitation (CVR) to create jobs for people with special needs. According to Dr. Natural’s own 'About' page, CVR produces product packaging for the company, and Dr. Natural says that workforce is 75% people with special needs. Because of this I'll 100% stick with the brand.

We use this stuff to make our own hand soap and baby soap and it’s a great price and a really good size bottle and it’s natural without added fragrance.

The pros- the smell of this soap is amazing, it is natural, it is relatively affordable, and it gets the job done! The cons- it really does not lather well, so you will need to use a good bit if it to feel like you’re clean. It also feels like it leaves my skin a little dry. I would still recommend it, but you just need to be prepared for not the best lather or smooth skin feeling afterwards. I have switched to using Attitude soap (which is another natural option but lathers better and does not leave a dry feeling).
