This zero-waste, vegan dish washing block is made by No-Tox Life in Los Angeles, CA. It is a cleaning powerhouse with a rich, sudsy lather, and cuts stubborn grime and grease, without drying out your hands. You can use it for cleaning-duty all over your home! Take stains out of laundry, take labels off of jars, spot clean your carpet, use it to wipe down counters... it's a truly multipurpose product. 6 oz bar replaces roughly one 12 oz bottle of typical liquid dish soap. How to use: Scrape dishes to remove excess grease and food. Wet Sponge or Scrubber and rub dish soap block to create suds. Repeat as needed to refresh suds. Wash items and rinse well. Works in warm or cold water. We prefer warm water for best results. For pots and pans, use a scrubber or scourer. Please note: using a strong scourer or scrubber exclusively on the block will wear it down faster than using a soft sponge or cloth. For extra sparkly dishes: wipe dishes dry with an UNpaper® Towel! Pro kitchen tip: This dishwashing block can be used on porcelain, stainless, stone and glass sinks safely. We have seen customers use it to clean dirty & stained oven top surfaces as well! (Due to the handmade and hand cut nature of this product, there may be slight roughness or cracks on the edges of the bar.) ***Vegan. Phosphate-free. Sulfate-free. Paraben-free. Fragrance-free.
