In America, castile means any soap made with olive oil, often a liquid soap made from coconut and olive. Check your ingredients - most companies add synthetic foaming boosters!

These Castile Liquid Soaps are used for hand and body wash, oily hair shampoo, and for general purpose cleaning. Vermont Soap Works gets a lot of questions from people regarding skin type. First, not everyone will have one specific skin type year in and year out. Oiliness and dryness can change with weather, hormonal cycles, diet, emotions, environmental sensitivities, disease and genetics. Many people get dry skin in the winter and feel oily in the summer. At other times, you may want a medicinal bar. Here's a simple test you can do to test your skin type: Take a cotton ball and moisten it with Witch Hazel or rubbing alcohol. Rub the moist cotton along the side of your nose. Wait ten minutes. Repeat. Examine the second cotton ball. If the cotton is dirty, you tend to have oily skin. If the cotton is clean, you tend to have dry skin. Frequently Asked Questions: Is there petroleum in my soap? Any type of vegetable oil or animal fat will make some kind of soap product. But other than Fels-Naptha Soap or a similar knock-off, the people at Vermont Soapworks is not aware of any other company currently using petroleum in a true soap product. Dominating the marketplace these days are detergent bars. They look and act like soap but are, in fact, detergent concoctions. Soap is like a snake with an alkali head. Alkali loves water and oils hate water. Put them together and you get something new ... soap! It loves water and it hates water. When you add water to soap it goes: love water, hate water, love water, hate water, love water, hate water; then it foams. Soap molecules are found throughout nature, in yucca, soap nuts, soapwort, etc, and are made by our own bodies to help digest fats. The most widely used detergent is sodium lauryl (laureth) sulfate. It is in everything from detergent bars to shampoo to car wash. SLS is made by taking a chain of carbons from petroleum (or vegetable oil source if it is a premium ingredient) and adding water loving sulfur to one end and water hating sodium to another. Love water/hate water all over again. Detergents are useful because they make long lasting foam even in cold or hard water (compared with true soap products). They are cheap and abundant, and most are petroleum sourced. Now detergents are pretty cool, and are often confused with soap products but chemically they are very, very different. Soap may be found in nature but detergents are not naturally occurring. Is it wise to make a long term chemical experiment of yourself and your children? The Precautionary Principal says, "Prove something is safe before we release onto and into our bodies, our soils, our food and our water." Rather than today's, "We think it is safe but you have to prove it is not before we will stop making it." What is the dilution percentage of Liquid Sunshine for washing dishes by hand, especially with hard water?
