the first time i used doc bronner's was showering at the texan's place (in maryland). it was of the peppermint variety and i wasn't a particularly big fan. not of the smell necessarily, but i thought it left my skin with a weird film. but as i spent more time in that shower, i grew to appreciate it.
not long after, in a love-sick clinging to old memories, i bought a bottle of the tea tree bronners. a small bottle. but it quickly became a prized commodity and the small empty bottle was replaced by a larger one. these were the days of a tea tree crusade. nature's gate tea tree shampoo and conditioner. tea tree doc's. even a tea tree facial cleanser. but tea tree, as it does, can get a little overwhelming. some time the next year i knew i couldn't handle it any more.
i tried the almond. too sweet. the lavender had always been too flowery. i knew too many other people that used the peppermint. and so i found myself happily settling on the citrus, and haven't looked back since. the medium sized bottle of wonderful citrus 18-purpose cleaner has sat in my shower consistently since then.
until now. i haven't given up on the citrus, but i've made a switch to the bar soap. i was hesitant at first. would it provide the same wonderful sudsiness? would it work well on hair? on dirty clothes? but it seems to be just as amazing as the liquid stuff. with a fraction of the weight and virtually no waste product. ah bronner's......you've done it again.
