Someday, just for kicks, I’m going to try to count up all the potential uses for Dr. Bronner’s Magic Soaps. But in the meantime I’ll just stick with the uses recommended by shopcasters like Jen Boulden, Philip Gelb, and Norene, all of whom select peppermint as their Magic Soap scent of choice. Made with just water, various oils (coconut, olive, peppermint, hemp, and jojoba), organic peppermint, citric acid, and vitamin E, the green cleaner can “wash your hands, your hair, feed your plants, etc. and it smells great and again,” says Jen. As for Philip, the chef simply states that Dr. Bronner’s “gets the chili off my hands,” a valuable bit of magic indeed. And Norene uses the pepermint soap for both “personal care and home cleaning,” noting that the product makes for “a great wake-me-up refresher any time of day, but especially in the morning. No time for a shower, or trying to conserve water? Give yourself a peppermint sponge bath - you’ll feel clean and refreshed.” And to clean and refresh your home, Norene offers these tips:
“Combine Dr. Bronner’s with baking soda to create a paste perfect for scrubbing tub/tile/sink. Use a tiny smidge with water, vinegar, and essential oils for a great window cleaner. Or just read the bottle label for ideas!”
