I bought this soap from Whole Foods since I have extremely dry skin & prone to eczema outbreaks. I have the liquid almond and the peppermint bar. I was a little skeptical about using the peppermint on my sensitive skin. Overall, I'm impressed, there was tons of lather. The soap rinsed very cleanly. I do have a water softener so I will give some credit to it for helping with my dry skin. I have just one minor hang up with this soap, it did cause a slight tingle with my lady parts. I did like the slight tingle except in the the southern region. Overall, I give four stars because of the tingle, but I really love this soap. I didn't have an issue with the soap melting too quickly but my bar was incredibly hard. I even bought another brand of castile liquid soap "kiss my face" and it doesn't come close to this one. Hopefully, it doesn't get too expensive.Dr. Bronner may seem a bit wacky, but he makes really, really good soaps. I have used the liquid soaps for years and recently began using his bar soaps. They smell great, lather extremely well and rinse well too. The peppermint scent is strong and soothing, but doesn't leave you smelling like a peppermint candy. It rinses well and is mild enough that I can even wash my hair with it, something I wouldn't do with any other bar soap. The difference with other bar soaps is these bars of soap go fast, two of us would use a bar in less than a week! By compassion, the same size of Ivory last easily twice as long. Dr. Bronner's is worth it to me though. It is definitely worth trying.I was searching for tooth soap and I came across this on the Dr. Bronner's site:"For tooth brushing, apply a drop or two of Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap (I prefer the peppermint) to a wet toothbrush. Brush as you normally would, rinsing accordingly. Be careful about using more than a couple drops of soap, as you might start foaming at the mouth (last time I checked "rabid chic" was not hip). Many people with sensitive or softer teeth like to use our soap as toothpaste because it lacks abrasives."
I tried the liquid soap but it was too soapy for me so I decided to try shredding the peppermint bar soap on my cheese grater and have been using only this product on my teeth for about 6 weeks. I use the directions for the other tooth soap shreds found on this site. Using tooth soap instead of toothpaste takes some getting used to but I am hooked. Due to the lack of abrasives, I do use baking soda along with the tooth soap once a week to keep my teeth white.
I have periodontal disease and have to go every three months to the dentist for scaling/cleaning. Last night at I had my quarterly appointment at the dental office my hygienist was pleasantly surprised that she did not have to do hardly any scaling, my gums did not bleed at all, my gums are firmer than before (they take readings) and I had very little sensitivity. Less time in the dentist's chair, WOOT!
I also use the liquid peppermint soap in the shower (tingly lady bits and all) and for my laundry and I will continue to do so.
The 6 pack seems like a good deal here as I usually have to pay 6 dollars a bar. One bar would shred into about a year supply of tooth soap though. Economical even at 6 dollars if you compare it to toothpaste. If you compare it to tooth soap shreds found here it is even more economical as one jar of tooth shreds is about 20 bucks and probably about the same amount as a quarter of a bar of Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Castile soap.
But that's just my opinion :)I'm a normal guy with normal skin and grew up using Ivory soap. We were visiting friends and they had this soap and I really liked the smell and the way it lathered so we bought some. I've found it last longer than a bar of Ivory and my wife says it doesn't dry her out like Ivory would in the dry winter. I just like the smell and it gets me clean.I don't buy from companies that test on animals so it leaves me limited since SO many companies test on animals. I thought I'd give Dr. Bronner's soap a try because I've heard how great their products are and I am a fan! It works well and it lasts a long time. Great product and I love that it's good for the environment and for me! Give it a try. You'll agree with me!
