Vermont Soap
Am I able to use my castile soap for all my cleaning? Kind regards, Marita Oh yes. Castile liquid soap was the original “detergent” used by royalty and riches 300 year ago. It is the safe, natural and nontoxic alternative to all those synthetic detergents which have “eth” and “ate” after their names. We recommend different dilutions for different solutions! Check out the Vermont Soap website for more information on using ALL of our castile liquid soap based products (including our new Zero VOC Spray Cleaner) in your home and business. Best! Soapman

Read MoreDo you have a facial wash that won’t burn if it accidentally gets in the eyes? This is a terrific question Mary. ALL stuff that foams stings the eyes. No exceptions found to date. Some large chemical companies found a way to anesthetize the eyes but putting something into their baby shampoo that acts like novacaine for the eyes. In other words; the kids are still getting their eyes irritated but they don’t know it. Concerns about this scheme prompted a change to a new chemical that that puts a film over the eyes instead. The irritating foamy stuff washes…
Read MoreHi, A few years ago Vermont Soap made a wonderful insect repellant that I loved! It smelled great and it was not greasy, so it did not need to be washed off at the end of the day or at the end of a hike or gardening session. It smelled mostly like soap. It worked! It kept the bugs away really pretty well. We have a lot of bugs here in Marshfield and I use a lot of insect repellant. Why isn’t Vermont Soap still making this wonderful product? Any chance you will consider it? Thanks, Laura Hi Laura. Insect…

Read MoreWhat’s the difference between your regular castile soap and your camping soap? Thanks, Vickie They are the same. If you only need 4oz, the Camping Soap is the only liquid soap in that size. If you need a lot save money and go with the Lemongrass Castile or Liquid Sunshine. Best!

I promised a friend that I would get soap for her young daughter. Any specific suggestions? Sure: Try the Butter Bar and also Unscented Green Gold. Change out laundry products with Unscented castile liquid soap; no drier sheets or fabric softener. No more bubble baths either! Best, Soapman
