Searching for the Best Non-Toxic Foaming Hand Soap

I've sampled quite a few clean brands of hand soap, not all from the goat milk variety, but haven't landed on a true love just yet. In particular, I'm in search of the best all-around foaming hand soap that comes in delectable, non-toxic scents and my hopes are high for Bend Soap Co's new release. I will compose a proper Bend Soap Co. Goat Milk Foaming Hand Soap Review post after I give it a go with Sunrise Cheer, but here's a little glimpse of my findings with other brands and why they are no longer in the running.

Natural Sloth, mostly organic to my delight, performed well in scent and experience. Coming in at almost $30 for an 8.5oz glass bottle with pump, on the other hand, had my blue-collar roots short-circuiting at that price point. An 8.5oz glass bottle with no pump was priced around $15 which is still beyond what other clean brands cost. A moot point really because, whether it's within your budget or not, the foaming soap has not been available on Natural Sloth's website for a few months. That may change, but at this time, only 8oz bottles of liquid soap (not foaming) are available for $27.

Rustic Strength, not organic, was the coolest hand soap I came across but I had a change of heart. Sitting at $13 for 12oz, it rings the too-expensive bell if you go through soap in the kitchen like I do. You can create your own scents. That's brilliant, but here's why I bailed. It's not available in foaming soap, only liquid. If you don't know what you're doing with creating scent profiles, you can waste a lot of money on some real doozies... I concocted a few myself. Depending on the scent, some formulas were thicker and gel-like, while others were runny and separated in solution. Additionally, my hands turned noticeably dry and irritated after a short time. Build your own scents did not save this one. To shine a little extra light, I sampled this brand early on in my explorations, so I made the mistake of buying into the toxin & irritant-free push. After getting better at seeking out toxins, it's likely I could chalk up my dry hands to Polyquaternium 7, Polysorbate 20, Phenoxyethanol, and the synthetic aromatic compounds that I overlooked in the ingredients list. Sidebar, I also tried Rustic Strength laundry soap, and it faded colors from garments and linens and made fabrics appear more worn.

Beekman 1802, goat milk but not organic, presented as a possible mainstream, trusted hand soap choice early on in my search. Their hand soaps come in a rotating variety of enticing scents which drew me in, but those scents fall under the red flag-waving term 'fragrance'. This terminology can mask a variety of unknown toxins. Foaming soap isn't an option here either, only liquid soap. At $22 for 12.5oz, I believe it's fair for us to hope it would contain an organic ingredient or two and exclude the toxic ones.

Open Ended Closing Thought (if there is such a thing)

When I consider how many times a day I wash my hands, a bit excessive I admit, it makes perfect sense to use a hand soap that is just plain good. It's stating the obvious and awfully redundant to say that we wash our hands to get rid of the bad stuff, not introduce more of it. That's why it has been such a mission of mine to find the rockstar of all soaps to share with you. Bend Soap Co. is on deck for the title... I'll report back.
