Is the Liquid Sunshine Dish Foam okay to also use and a hand soap for use in the kitchen sink? YOU BET!

What’s the best soap to buy for a man? Great question! Lemongrass is always a good choice for guys. Bar soaps for more sensitive skin, liquid soaps for oily skin and gels are in the middle. Lemongrass bar soap is good for shaving too.

Are all the plastic bottles/containers you use BPA free and non-toxic? What is the number rating on the bottles? i.e. 5, 2. I am just concerned that toxins may leach into the great products you have. Do yo know if the heat or cold will release any toxins from the bottles/containers? I am sure they are fine but can’t find any info on your website or questions anywhere with this info. Thanks! I am so happy to have found you! Great question! Short answer: Yes! All of our bottles/containers are BPA free and non-toxic. Long answer: All the clear bottles…

What is difference between your body foam and foaming hand soap? Great question! I’ve been waiting for someone to ask it. Body Foam is a very cutting edge dispensing system. We make it with a high olive oil formula that is significantly more moisturizing – and less degreasing than the hand foamers. Try it, and please leave an honest testimonial on the product page. We are already working on the next generation body foamer made with sunflower oil and shea butter.

I recently bought the Liquid Sunshine Spray and Wipe to try it out. I love it and am going to buy a jug of the concentrate. Is the Liquid Sunshine in the Spray and Wipe bottle diluted or just the concentrate in a spray bottle? Spray and Wipe is basically diluted Liquid Sunshine. We use fancy de-mineralized water, but you can buy the concentrate and make your own. Always add soap to water rather than water to soap when diluting or you will make a lot of suds. Liquid Sunshine literally cleans EVERYTHING under the sun. See the website and…

 Do any products contain cocoamidopropyl? Nope. Our foaming bases (bar, liquid, gel, paste) are all soap based; made from organic oils. Thanks for asking.

I thought I’d seen a bar soap good for dirty, greasy, mechanics hands. Am I wrong or did it go away? The Honey love Beauty mask and Clay mask are only different with the addition of clay correct? Does this end up more like a scrub? Why did you add clay? The description is the same for both and no mention is made of the clay. Thank you. We had a pumice bar soap some 15 years ago. It was actually a soap failure that worked well on greasy hands. I like to use straight castile liquid soap or liquid…

Hi Soapman, Do you know if your foaming soap works in all foaming soap dispensers? We are a yacht and have foaming dispensers in all crew cabins and are looking for a compatible organic refill solution. Thank you Hello and thanks for your question. Our foamer soap should work fine in whatever foamer dispenser you have. However you need to rinse any detergent residues from the container. Three rinses should do it. Organic soap and detergents are evil opposites and annihilate each other. Rinse the container when you refill it too. This will keep your soap fresh. All the Best,…

Does your Organic Castile Soap clean well using cold water? I’ll be cleaning beakers and metal pumps which are used to measure and dispense essential oils, but have no hot water at my cleaning station. Yes, castile liquid soap will work in cold water. Foamy stuff always lathers and rinses better in hot water, but with enough of a rinse you should be fine. Pick up 8 oz of unscented castile and give it a try. You must Experiment! All the Best, Soapman

My liquid soap got left out in the cold, and now it’s white and opaque instead of transparent. What happened? Is it still good to use? Castile Liquid Soap, Liquid Sunshine and other castile related products such as our foamers and spray cleaners will turn white after being cold or frozen. This is completely normal. All of our organic liquid soap products will return to their normal clear amber color as they warm back to room temperatures. Cold temps and freezing may also cause some white soap to precipitate to the bottom of the bottle. This does not harm the…
