  Right now I use it in my foaming soap pump bottle.  Sometimes I use it to clean the bathroom counters.

  I use it for handsoap in a foaming pump (1 part Dr. B to 10 water).  I mix it with vinegar and water to use as a kitchen cleaner. Works great on wood and stainless steel, too.  I make a mixture of it t with baking soda to clean the shower. 

  I also  use a bit of the Dr. Bronner's along with vinegar to use in my Kirby to clean carpets. 

  I haven't used the baby mild, but I loooove the almond and peppermint ones just for the fragrance.  When I've shampooed the  carpets the whole house smells like peppermint - yum.

  I can't remember who posted this list before but I saved it for ideas:

  - Wash the baby's toys and even the high chair.  Add a bit to a wet rag and go to town.  Rinse.  Since it's made from plant oils, if a touch of residue is left it won't poison DD.  Also no smell left.-

  - 1 part Dr. Bronner's, 10 parts water in a foaming hand soap pump.  Great hand soap.

  - I use the peppermint to wash the dogs.  Buggies hate the peppermint smell

  - A bit with water does a great job of cleaning our bamboo floors

  - Add with a bit of Borax, some tea tree oil, vinegar and water to make a spray cleaner that rivals Fantastik

  - I use it to clean the bathroom.  Have a jug under the sink, take a rag and do a quick washing. Far easier and less toxic/smelly than regular bathroom cleaners.

  - Some use it as body wash and shampoo, though I find it too harsh

  - I use the baby unscented with lanolin to lanolize DD's wool diaper covers

  - I use it to clean the outside of the house.  Siding, deck furniture, umbrella, etc.  Rinses clean - no stickiness, no film

  I use it as a handsoap, as a home made cloth wipe solution, in the laundry as a detergent booster, to spray diluted solution on house plants to get rid of gnats.  There are some recipes out there that call for castile soap (which is what Dr, Bronner's is).  Sorry I don't have any specific links cause I am at work.

  I use it for cleaning solutions occasionally, but also as a face wash.  My face has felt so good since using it, and I've had very few breakouts.  Could be the prenatals, too, but I choose to believe in the Dr. B.
