Dr. Bronner's - Organic Sugar Soap (Peppermint, 12 oz) - Made with Organic Oils, Sugar & Shikakai Powder, 4-in-1 Uses: Hands, Body, Face & Hair, Cleanses, Moisturizes & Nourishes, Vegan, Non-GMO

Dr. Bronners organic sugar soap is really good. We use to use Mrs Mira soap but find this soap much better and it leaves an amazing peppermint smell on your hands as well as them feeling soft and clean. Would highly recommend. High quality soap in my opinion.

I could not love this stuff more! This soap smells amazing, even better than their original lavender castile soap; the lavender fragrance is somehow deeper and more complex. The consistency is very creamy, the lather luxurious. The lather is even fabulous when I put it in a foaming soap dispenser at a ratio of 1:5 with water. It is just yummy! I am a longtime fan of Dr. Bronner's original castile soap, which I've been using almost exclusively since college (and we will not talk about how long ago that was!). I discovered this soap while I was searching for something gentle, non-drying, and natural for the super-sensitive skin of the 93-year-old lady I was working for. She needed something for hand-washing at her kitchen and bathroom sinks, but she'd tried Dr. B's castile soap and wanted something more moisturizing. I had never used this sugar soap, had never even heard of it until I found it on the shelf at my local natural grocery store, but I got her a bottle of it to try. She she went crazy for it! Meanwhile, I was using it every day while I was at her house -- and needless to say, I fell in love with it, too! A couple of years later, that same lady I worked for asked me about body wash, because she was unhappy with whatever what she'd been using. I reminded her that this soap is a hand *and body* soap (and showed her the label to reassure her). I think she was skeptical, but she really liked using it in the shower, too! I know for a fact that she's used nothing but the sugar soap for hand-washing since then, and I'm pretty sure she's never tried anything else as a body wash. I had originally used the shikakai hand and body soap that the sugar soap replaced, so I was a little apprehensive about this "sugar" version, but honestly, I couldn't tell a difference between the two. I'm still a huge fan -- and I sound like a walking advertisement for Dr. B's! Sometimes I find Dr. B's original castile soap to be a tad too harsh for hand soap (I know! Sacrilege!), because the skin on my hands is SO much more more sensitive than anywhere else, especially when I'm having a bad flare-up of eczema. So I've replaced it at all the sinks in my house with the sugar soap. I have kind of a problem with too much hand-washing, but the only side-effect of this is going through so many towels! Under "normal" circumstances, this soap doesn't dry out or irritate my hands at all; it actually feels moisturizing, and my hands feel soft afterwards. Even when my eczema is really bad and everything hurts, this is much less irritating than anything else. I've only tried two "flavors" of this, lavender and lemongrass-lime, but I imagine the others are just as awesome. I'm a huge fan of their original peppermint castile soap from way back, and later became completely addicted to the lavender. The lavender sugar soap is just as addicting, if not more so! I have some in my bathroom and guest bath, and the lemongrass-lime is at my kitchen sink. I would like to try some of the peppermint the next time I need to "reload" -- if I can tear myself away from the lemongrass-lime and lavender!

I don't usually write reviews, but I want to address negative comments about the packaging of the liquid soap I purchased online. Accidents can happen during shipping, so negative reviews are simply the result of an unfortunate incident. These unique soaps aren't commonly found in stores, so if you buy online, be aware of the risk. My package arrived the next day and I'm happy with my purchase. I recently tried Dr. Bronner's bar soaps and was extremely satisfied with their quality. I was looking for a replacement for my feminine wash, Honey Pot, due to a change in its formula and also for religious reasons. I chose Dr. Bronner's because of their simplified, natural, organic, and vegan products that serve as an all-in-one choice. The product is designed for sensitive skin, and it left my skin feeling SO soft and clean. The minimal scent is due to the natural ingredients used in the product. I am thrilled to have found this product, and it will be my go-to choice from now on.

Probably one of the few guys (with medium length hair) who uses Dr. Bronner's products... so here goes: Pros: -Dr. Bronner's is an INCREDIBLE company. Environmentally, socially, financially responsible through and through. Legit fair trade, seriously organic, no one gets paid more than 5 times another (amazing considering that most CEOs nowadays make hundreds times what their factory floor workers do), employees get 100% free healthcare, and they give like a third of their profits back to charity (beyond their free trade projects, which, among other things, support peaceful Palestinian/Israeli coexistence and medical equipment for hospitals in Sri Lanka). If corporations were actually people, Dr. Bronner's would be Gandhi (and I should know, I'm Indian :P) -I've never gotten so many compliments on my hair! So soft, so shiny (not greasy though), so healthy and strong...Not only that, but after using this and the conditioning rinse and leave-in conditioner, I can just run my hands through my hair to style it almost any which way I please! Do you know how much time that saves me in the morning? Now I don't feel so guilty when pressing snooze 3x. -Love the strong smell of the soap when showering :) ahhh...tea tree...peppermint...so refreshing Cons -still experimenting on how much/little to use of each product. Right now, might be using too much shampoo, because hair becomes parched if I don't use the leave-in conditioner. -Price. Originally used the soap on body too, but after not seeing a noticeable difference over my Dove bar, decided to save it for just the hair. -Though the soap smells wonderful, it doesn't last on your hair (like my hair doesn't smell like peppermint or tea trees--do those actually exist?? I thought tea leaves grow in bushes). Anyways... I suspect my hair actually smells a bit more like some oil (for all my desi folks out there, kinda like Ayurvedic medicine). I say "suspect" because I don't smell it on a day to day basis, and no one has told me my hair stinks, but if I am hot and/or sweaty, sometimes I smell it. -for the citrus conditioning rinse, be careful, because it really stings if you get it in your eyes or on open cuts. Also, the smell of citrus and whatever oils they use is, frankly, nauseating in the shower.***SEE UPDATE BELOW*** Citrus and that oil smell do not mix Dr. Bronner, nuh uh, not at all. Also, not a fan of having to dilute the rinse on my own before use. First world problems, I know, but I'd appreciate it if it came pre-diluted, and preferably at the same consistency as the soap (instead of having the viscosity of water, which is harder to work through your hair). Sorry for the novella. TL;DR: love the company and the results, not such a big fan of the price or the slight oily smell--but that's what you get for all-natural. Also, for guys, cut back ALOT on what they tell you to use. Peace! ~A Dr. Bronner's lifetime customer P.s. If you're interested in more socially responsible products, check out the Good Guide app (here's the Apple link:[...] UPDATE: Finally figured out how much to use: half a "pump" of shikakai soap/shampoo, 1/4 cap of the conditioning rinse (+ 1 cup water) and probably 1/8 to 1/4 a "pump" of the leave-in conditioner. When you dilute the citrus conditioning rinse, it doesn't smell nearly as bad as before, you only smell the citrus :)

We love the fresh scent of this peppermint soap, plus it makes out bathroom smell amazing.

I've been a loyal Dr. Bronner's fan for a few years now after I started getting skin rashes and crepey skin from "regular" soap. I was reacting to all the preservatives and toxic chemicals in conventional soap. I tried everything, even "natural" soaps, but was still reacting to the essential oils that they use. The ONLY thing that I did not react to was Dr. Bronner's. I originally tried the peppermint castile soap, and it dried out my hands (the peppermint was too strong for my skin). I tried the unscented baby castile and it was the best soap I had ever used. I did not react to it, and it made my hands soft, clean and got rid of the crepeyness. On a whim, I also tried the almond scent, and that is my holy grail!! I use it to wash my face, my hands, my body, and my entire apartment, including my dishes. It cleans grease and stains like no other soap I've used, without all the harsh chemicals. I use it everyday with confidence and peace of mind. I have yet to find anything else on the market that holds up to all their clean, natural ingredients that also actually cleans well. A year later, I decided to try their sugar soaps, and they are now my favorite to use in the bathroom. I've tried the lavender, lemongrass/lime, and peppermint. Because the formula is slightly different and more moisturizing, the peppermint one doe snot dry out my hands like the castile version. In fact, it makes them baby soft and cleans better than any other soap out there. It is my favorite scent thus far for the sugar soaps (smells like a mix between spearmint and peppermint and really wakes up my senses, I love it). I hope Dr. Bronner's never goes out of business. It's so nice to have a company that actually cares and practices ethically while making safe, quality products for everyone. I could go without all the "writing" on their bottles, but I just take it as quirky fun ;)

I love the soap. It works it really really works great and it doesn't dry out my hands

This product is extremely drying to hands; cannot imagine how drying it is to body and hair. What a disappointment and waste of money.
