Dr. Bronner's Castile Soap

My grandmother kept a bottle of Dr. Bronner's peppermint castile soap in her shower for as long as I can remember. First thing I noticed as a kid was the label, every inch of the bottle covered in tiny text about cosmic unity and moral philosophy. I used to stand in the shower trying to read it all before the hot water ran out. Soap itself is a concentrated liquid that foams when you rub it between your hands. Peppermint oil gives your skin a tingling cold sensation that wakes you up more effectively than coffee. The smell fills the entire bathroom with a sharp clean mint that lingers on your skin for an hour. I like that the formula has not changed since the 1940s and the ingredient list is 8 items long, all organic oils. After trying dozens of body washes with synthetic fragrances that irritated my skin, going back to Dr. Bronner's felt like a correction. At 18 uses claimed on the bottle, including body wash, shampoo, dish soap, laundry detergent. Floor cleaner, I have tried most of them and they all work adequately though not as well as a dedicated product. A single $16 bottle replacing 4 or 5 products for a month of light use is genuinely practical.
