Citrus & Spice Liquid Dish Soap
What you're getting: One 16 fl oz bottle of sulfate-free dish soap with a flip-top lid. Led by citrus limonum (lemon) oil and plant-based aromatic oils (lemon, lime, and orange), warmed with cinnamomum cassia (cassia) oil and cinnamomum zeylanicum (cinnamon bark) oil that linger underneath. Pure essential oils and plant-derived isolates — no synthetic fragrance, no phthalates, no dyes.
Scent profile — fresh citrus, warm spice: Bright citrus opens clean and fresh, balanced by warm cinnamon and cassia that linger. A grounded scent that stays present without ever taking over. The lemon hits first, then the spice settles in behind it. The scent clears while you wash and doesn't follow you out of the kitchen.
How it cleans: Plant-derived surfactants — sodium alpha olefin sulfonate (coconut-derived), cocamidopropyl betaine (coconut-derived), cocamide DIPA (coconut-derived), and decyl glucoside (plant-derived) — lift grease and food residue without the stripping effect of sulfate-heavy formulas. Concentrated. A small amount handles more than you'd expect. Start with less than you think you need.
Why we went sulfate-free: Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) is what most national dish soaps rely on. It cuts grease aggressively, but it had two problems we couldn't get past. On hands that wash dishes a few times a day, every day, SLS adds up — drying skin, dulling hands, wearing nails down. And its close relative SLES can carry traces of 1,4-dioxane, a manufacturing byproduct the EPA classifies as likely carcinogenic in humans. We reformulated around milder coconut- and plant-derived cleansers instead, and getting the grease-cutting performance right without the SLS family took more rounds than we'd like to admit. We think a soap you use every day should leave your hands the way it found them.
