No matter how many times this gets posted over and over, this type of comment will get posted.


1. This has antibacterial properties which cannot be formulated using smaller concentrations.
2. I too use the DIY mix variety at times, but I recognize that this blend uses components that allow for better suspension and just cant be mimicked by using a homemade blend of water and liquid soap.


If antibacterial properties are you aim, then you get this product. If you dont care and just need to feel like your scrubbing something between your hands, then make the DIY type. I do sometimes.


But we can't act like the exact same product can be achieved using homemade tiktok instructions.

According to FDA antibacterial soap is no more effective at killing bacteria then regular. Google it

If you don't care about foaming, their liquid soap is a few cents more. I bought this from them awhile back and I think it's their regular price.

no matter how many times this gets posted I will always reply.

1. antibacterial is useless.
2. change your liquid soap type. I found that different soaps work better mixed together. now the type of soap i found (more liquid and less of a goo) mimicks this overpriced foaming refill at 1/5th of this "sale" price

this is the same product but more expensive shake head

anti bacterial will not work on your hands unless you keep it there for several minutes. do you lather for several minutes at a time?

We've tried every ratio/method we could find online, and while you do get a foamy soap (most of the time) it feels nothing like this stuff. I can easily tell what soap is a legit foaming soap and which is a knock-off. When the mix is right, I can tolerate the homemade stuff, but often something goes amiss during the process and we end up with a watered down mess that I can't stand. I buy a bottle or two of the store brand refills when it's on sale and I use that to refill the pump for my sink in our master bathroom, and then I tolerate the DIY stuff my wife uses in all the other bathrooms/kitchen. Once my kids are a little older, I think I'm going to have us go back to the old stuff, because it lasts way longer and half of it doesn't evaporate.
i don't know about you but i've been refilling my foam dispensers with regular soap and water and they are great.

My mistake. I didn't realize this was the foaming version. Walmart does 50oz of the regular soap dupe for $3. I prefer their softsoap dupes anyways (dial never seems to lather enough for my tastes).

I don't know how true this is, but I've read that diluting standard soap to make foaming soap can be a bad thing because the original soap was formulated in such a way as to keep bacteria, mold, etc. from growing in it. By diluting it, now the foaming hand soap only has 1/3 of those original properties and bacteria/mold COULD grow in it. When they manufacture the foaming soap from the start, I'm guessing they would change the ratio of the product appropriately.

For about $1 per refill, I'll just buy the real thing. I have made it myself before but it's usually a pain to get perfect. The price difference isn't worth it for me.

Maybe you should google it yourself but I did it for you as you provided a lot of misinformation. the active ingredient in this soap is benzalkonium chloride.

This is on the fda website itself:

"The final rule doesn't apply to benzalkonium chloride, benzethonium chloride and chloroxylenol."

https://www.fda.gov/consumers/con...-and-water

People were marketing all sorts of ingredients as antibacterial before but this one does qualify per the fda as antibacterial.

Also regular soaps "wash off bacteria" while antibacterial soap kills it— "You should google it" so yes antibacterial soap does a better job at killing bacteria than regular soaps.

A lot of data online is saying antibacterial soaps and hand sanitizers kill germs within 30 seconds.

Dials website says within 30 seconds with Benzalkonium chloride.

Hospitals have been using dial antibacterial soap from for a very long time. Of course probably a stronger formula than the consumer ones.

"What makes a hand soap "Antibacterial"?
Soaps that are formulated to contain an approved antibacterial ingredient can be marketed as an antibacterial hand soap. Dial® antibacterial hand soaps are formulated with the bacteria killing ingredient called Benzalkonium chloride. This antibacterial ingredient has been used for over 50 years in many types of antibacterial products. They are chemically known as Quaternary Ammonium Chlorides (Quats). The active ingredient can kill a broad spectru"

I refill 90% of the time, but I've had to toss dispensers due to the pink bacteria commonly seen in bathrooms (Serratia marcescens). I changed my pattern to only refill each container five times, and store the containers inside both empty and full, but I would really like an efficient way to sanitize them at the time of filling.

Its not the same size and Equate stuff is not the same quality. Oz wise, you're paying the same for an inferior product.
