[Cosmetics Review] 'Mannung Binu' Used Also as Kitchen Detergent

Shampoo, conditioner, cleansing foam, and other chemical products fill the bathroom shelves and shower booths of modern people. If you are worried about the space they take up and the increasing waste from disposable plastic containers, try Dr. Bronner's 'Pure Castile Soap.' With just this one product, you can wash your hair, face, and body all at once.

This product is a concentrated liquid soap containing plant-based oil ingredients and is a versatile "all-purpose soap." In addition, it can be used for more than 20 different purposes such as kitchen cleaning, rinsing vegetables and fruits, dishwashing, cleaning window frames, bathroom cleaning, aromatherapy, laundry, bathing dogs, and killing ants and mites.

It is especially a very handy product for camping, traveling, or going to public baths where it is difficult to carry various facial cleansing tools, as bringing just this one product can reduce your luggage.

As a highly concentrated liquid type containing organic oil ingredients, it is more than three times more concentrated than most other liquid soaps, so it is usually recommended to dilute it with water before use. This also reduces packaging waste, making it a product known to have a positive environmental impact.

When applied to a sponge or shower ball, it produces rich foam, allowing you to wash your entire body with a small amount about the size of a coin during a shower.

Since it is made of mild ingredients, it generally does not irritate the skin. Body washes that contain a large amount of oil or cream sometimes leave a slippery residue even after rinsing with water, causing an uncomfortable feeling of not being fully washed off. However, this product rinses off cleanly, leaving a refreshing finish. At the same time, because of the oil content, it does not leave the skin feeling dry or tight.

To use it as toothpaste, just one drop on the toothbrush is enough to brush your teeth as usual. Although I have not yet tried brushing my teeth with it, it is said to have a bitter soap taste when put in the mouth, so this aspect may be a matter of personal preference.
