12 Castile Soap Uses Nobody Knows About.

I buy my castile soap wholesale.

It must be said that I love homemade household products:that's why I consume a lot of this natural soap.

Until a few months ago, I didn't know what "Castile" soap was. Know that this nickname simply describes a style of soap, not a brand.

It is made from 100% vegetable oils (no animal products like tallow, which appear in most commercial soaps).

It's also a real soap, not a chemical detergent, which makes it completely biodegradable and very environmentally friendly.

Also remember that it is a very economical product. Imagine all the things you can do with a bottle of soap like this!
