Desert Essence Castile Liquid Soap With Eco-Harvest Tea Tree Oil - 32 Fl Oz - Face Body Cleansing

Have used Desert Essence Tea Tree Oil Face wash for years and appreciate the Dessert Essence products. This in particular is a great liquid soap that is very versatile and at a good price. Less strong smell than the D.E. face wash and doesn't dry out the skin as much either. It's a liquid soap so it is runny but you can put it into old contact lens solution bottles which can then be dispensed as drops or squirted. A few drops go a long way... it can also be diluted with water to make it last longer. Works great when diluted and put into as foaming soap dispenser. You can google hundreds of dilution methods and solutions that can be made using castile liquid soap, this is also one of the less expensive and more "natural" castile soaps. In addition it contains tea tree oil which has natural cleansing and antibacterial qualities. If you aren't familiar with tea tree oil it is a bit odd for a smell at first but it will grow on you... plus it rinses off. If you aren't familiar with tea tree oil buy this and get acquainted. P.s. you'll be recommending this to someone else soon enough. Read more

Okay, so this soap has a few things in its favor: natural/biodegradable, great value, and works well. The only con I really have with it is the absolutely horrid smell. But, if you can get past that, I recommend it. It might just be me (or the tea tree oil...), but I really have a hard time with it. I have ordered this twice, however, because it is the best dandruff and skin care soap I have found. Then, you don't have to be concerned with the side effects of more expensive/lab created formulas (i.e. retinol and sun danger). I mixed a little with my shampoo and it killed the dandruff completely with only a few uses. I use it on my face to control acne. The only downside there is the awful smell is just that much closer to your nose...Maybe adding tea tree oil to my better smelling soap will be just as effective (and smell just as awful), but I haven't tried it and I like having better skin, so this is pretty worth it. Give it a try! If you hate the smell of it, use it for cleaning windows or something that smells worse. :) Read more

I use this because it seems to remove oil better than some other products that I have tried. I notice that the cost has increased on par with other things. It has resulted with little irritation or dryness for my type. And you don't need a large amount to do the job. Read more

**Update 08/01/16: I am still using this soap & still love it. The other day my husband said he loves that I have such soft skin, I told him it's because of the soap I use. I still use it for shaving & I absolutely love it as a face wash. Yes, if it gets in your eyes it kinda burns but ANY soap you get in your eyes will do that. Oh & yes it is very runny but let me tell ya, it doesn't take much to lather.. I have to use a soap at work & wash my hands 3-4 times in a work day, the minute I get home I wash with this soap & IT gets all the dirt and filth off that "regular" soap doesn't..how do I know, the black/brown stuff in the bottom of my sink after washing my hands. So after 5 yrs of using this soap, it still gets 5 stars from me. I will continue to use it. ** original review ** I don't care for that Dr. "whoever" castile soap. But this castile soap I love. My skin & face use to always break out with store brand soaps, but now my skin is clear & shaving my legs has never been so easy. This review is actually on my 2nd bottle I purchased. I will be buying this again. Read more

I will never buy any other soap/shampoo! My hair had been super flat, was getting greasy fast, had no body and was just heavy. I also have dandruff. I found the more dandruff shampoo I used the more dandruff I seemed to have. So I looked into natural alternatives and found DE. Wow! My hair is so clean you can feel the difference. It's fluffy around the roots, has body, I swear it even looks to be brighter in color and seems to be totally removed of the waxy buildup from drugstore shampoo thank god! Dandruff? What dandruff! YES!! Best dandruff shampoo ever. It feels good on your scalp oh yea! Lathers great and could be watered down to stretch out your bottle. Also used it for an all over bath and I've never felt so soft. Dead skin was falling off of me while I soaked. Sorry if that's tmi but I find that pretty awesome. The oils leave your body silky smooth and clean in such a refreshing way. I do not mind the smell it seems kind of pepperminty but still tea tree. I like it because when I smell it I am reminded that I'm fixing to have one of the best baths of my life. Seriously! Read more

The soap is good, but it smells of petroleum or an auto repair shop. With so many good fragrances available why would one chose this particular scent? Read more

I absolutely love this Desert Essence Castile Liquid Soap! It’s gentle on my skin, cleans thoroughly without leaving dryness, and feels refreshing every time I use it. The ingredients are clean and natural, which gives me peace of mind. A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts a while too. Definitely my go-to face wash! Read more

I’ve been using this for 10+ years! Naturally antibiotic and although the smell isn’t great, it works for my entire body and face Read more
