Dr. Bronner's All-One Baby Mild Soap

My all-purpose soap of choice is   Dr. Bronner's All-One, Baby-Mild .  This soap is an essential item in my household.   Gentle on the skin and hair, I use it in the bathroom, kitchen, and even add it to my laundry .   I have tried other Dr. Bronner's soaps as well, and they are nice for those who enjoy natural scents such as peppermint or euchalyptus, but the Baby-Mild is my favorite because it is unscented and 100% sensitive-skin friendly .

Maggie's Soap Nuts : the Laundry Soap that Grows on Trees!

Image
Maggie's Soap Nuts is, just that, a box of nuts! (well berries actually) The soap from these nut-like berries is the most natural you'll find--no processing involved. Soap nuts are the dried fruit of the Chinese Soapberry tree (Sapindus Mukorrosi) related to the Lychee and Rambutan, found primarily in India and Nepal. The nuts are harvested in Indian and Indonesian jungles. In suffering rural economies Soapberry trees are cut down and sold as lumber and firewood. Maggie's Pure Land reserves the Soapberry harvest years in advance, providing families with guaranteed fair income from living trees. Soap nuts contain saponin, a natural cleaner used for thousands of years to clean clothes, comparable to plants used by Native Americans for washing. Simply put a few soap nuts into the included cotton sack and drop it into your laundry . Throw the used soap nuts in your compost when you're done (you can get 2 or 3 washes out of a few in warm water).  100%...
