Soft Scouring Scrub
For sinks, tubs, and stovetops that need elbow grease in paste form. Tough on the ring around the tub, gentle on most surfaces.

- 1 cup baking soda
- 1/4 cup Dr. Bronner's Sal Suds
- 1 tablespoon water, plus more as needed
- 10 drops lemongrass essential oil (optional)
Steps
- Stir the baking soda and Sal Suds together in a bowl.
- Add water a teaspoon at a time until you have a soft, frosting-like paste.
- Stir in essential oil if using.
- Scoop onto a sponge, scrub, and rinse well.
Storage
Sealed jar at room temperature, up to 3 months. Stir if it firms up.
⚠️ Safety notes
- Test on a hidden spot first — skip on marble and soft stone.
- Keep out of reach of children.
These are household recipes, not food — never taste-test them. Label every bottle, keep mixtures away from children and pets, and never mix vinegar-based cleaners with hydrogen peroxide or bleach.
