A versatile, vegetable-based soap that is traditionally made from olive oil.
Castile soap is a versatile, vegetable-based soap that is traditionally made from olive oil. It originates from the Castile region of Spain, which is where it gets its name, but today, Castile soap can also be made from other plant-based oils like coconut oil, hemp oil, avocado oil, or jojoba oil.
Properties
Natural and Eco-Friendly: Castile soap is free from synthetic detergents and animal fats, making it biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
Gentle on Skin: It’s mild and moisturizing, suitable for people with sensitive skin or allergies to conventional soaps.
Multi-Purpose: Castile soap can be used for a wide variety of purposes including as a body wash, shampoo, household cleaner, laundry detergent, and even pet wash.
Common Uses
Castile soap is often sold as a liquid or a bar and is commonly associated with brands like Dr. Bronner’s, which has popularized the product globally. Because it’s highly concentrated, it’s often diluted for use. You can also make your own DIY products by adding essential oils or other ingredients to customize its scent and properties.
It can be used for personal care (face wash, body wash, shampoo, shaving cream), household cleaning (dish soap, laundry detergent, all-purpose cleaner, mopping floors) and even to wash pets since it’s gentle and non-toxic.
