To use, dilute the soap with water. For general cleaning, mix about half a cup of soap with a gallon of water. For hand or body washing, use a few drops mixed with water in your hands or on a washcloth. When washing dishes, a small amount in a sink of water is sufficient. For laundry, add about a third to half a cup to your washing machine. Always shake or dilute before use, as separation can occur. Adjust the dilution based on the task and desired cleaning power.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike many conventional soaps, this pure-castile soap is made from plant-based oils, primarily coconut and olive oil, which contribute to its gentle lather. Its concentrated nature means a little goes a long way, offering a cost-effective cleaning solution compared to ready-to-use products. The almond scent is natural and not overpowering.
Who it is for
This soap is used by individuals and families looking for a multi-purpose, natural cleaning agent.
How to keep the rest
Store the soap in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the cap tightly closed to prevent evaporation and contamination. If the soap separates, simply shake the bottle gently before use. It has a long shelf life when stored properly.
