Foaming is just diluted soap! Get regular one and dilute 1:3 ratio by weight of soap to water. Gently swirl and that's it! Much more economical. Get the soft soap from Costco or the 50oz refill Amazon deals currently on sale.

Green ($) initiative: Watering down the hand-soap. Next step: half-ply toilet paper.

Step-after the half-ply is a BIDET ...

BUT he is actually right about them just diluting soap and putting a foaming agent in there ... if you do a side by side comparison the foaming one lasts half the time ...

And if you are into anti microbial... I have news for you.

there's no evidence saying that antibacterial soaps do anything beyond normal soap hence why the FDA banned 24 antibacterial ingredients in soap:

https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/DrugSaf...445063.htm

For recommendations on minimum length of time necessary, CDC recommends 20 seconds of scrubbing with soap and water or rubbing until evaporated (20-30 seconds) with a 60% alcohol-based sanitizer.

Antibacterial soap isn't good for the skin and promotes resistant bacteria

Careful doing this. I got corrected by a chemist when I suggested this before, they insisted that you're potentially creating a toxic mix since the soap is specifically formulated, and it won't clean as well.

Soap?
And water?
Could be toxic?

That sounds insane to me. Anyone else?

Regarding the 1:3 ratio mix, my family rejects the end result and says it's not the same. It doesn't "feel right" or "feel as clean".

🤷

They are fine with the target or Walmart alternatives, which are cheaper than this.

I can't find Target's right now - maybe it's discontinued?

I can understand why it wouldn't clean as well but why would it be toxic??

1:5 works better in foaming dispenser.

Because the bottle that you dilute it in is not sterile, so it starts to grow things that could be harmful. It's "shelf stable" in its current form, adding water allows for things you don't want, to flourish.

It's just that he has to mention Costco. It's as if Costco is the end all be all for saving money when the reality is that while Costco is a good deal, better deals can be found, especially on soap. WMT sells it for about the same price, it's scented, if that matters, and it's in smaller bottles, which is nice.
