What is the difference between Pure-Castile Liquid Soap and Organic Sugar Soap?Updated a year ago

While our Organic Sugar Soaps are just as effective as our Pure-Castile Liquid Soaps, they have some key differences. 

Our Organic Sugar Soap is specifically intended for use on the body, face, and hair. The first ingredient in our Sugar Soap is organic sucrose, which is a natural humectant that draws moisture into the skin and hair. As a result, our Sugar Soaps tend to be a bit more hydrating than our classic Pure-Castile Liquid Soaps. The Sugar Soaps also contain shikakai powder, used in India for centuries as a gentle conditioner for skin and hair, making our Organic Sugar Soaps ideal for washing hair or dry skin.

On the other hand, our classic Pure-Castile Liquid Soaps are extremely versatile and can be used to clean dozens of different things: body, laundry, dishes, floors, pets, countertops, etc. You can check out Lisa Bronner’s amazing dilution guide for more direction.

One thing to keep in mind when diluting our Pure-Castille Soap is that they do not work well in regular pump dispensers. Instead, we recommend using a foaming pump dispenser and using a dilution ratio of 1 part soap to 3 parts water. From there, you can always make the solution more or less concentrated according to your preferences. 

Though both soaps clean your body and hair, our Sugar Soap offers a more moisturizing experience, while our Pure-Castile Soap offers expansive versatility.
