DIY Natural Scrub Cleaning Recipe

SHOP Karmalades

At a family event, I noticed my husband's Aunt was toting around a mysterious Tupperware container full of a natural cleaning concoction. Aunt Carolyn stated she made the natural cleaner and that it was similar to the bleach version of Soft Scrub. Naturally, I asked if I could snatch her recipe and blog about it :} She delightfully agreed. What I like about this natural cleaning recipe is the simplicity. The recipe calls for mixing two household ingredients together: Baking Soda and Liquid Castile Soap. Why did I not think of this before? Thanks a million Aunt Carolyn!


You simply mix the baking soda into the liquid Castile soap until the liquid is no longer visible. Make the scrub as thick as you want by continuing to add baking soda until satisfied with the texture. Dr. Bronner's comes in an assortment of naturally-derived scents to tickle the olfactory senses. You can clean practically anything with this natural scrub including yourself! Add a few dollops at bath time for a relaxing soak! Perfect for cleaning soap scum, toilets, dishes, counter tops, and stove tops. A shallow Tupperware container is all you need to keep your natural concoction from drying out!
