The Benefits of Foaming Hand Soap?
It’s More Hygienic
One of the primary benefits of foaming hand soap is that it is more hygienic than traditional hand soap. This is because the foam dispenses evenly onto your hands and doesn’t require touching the pump, which can often be covered in bacteria.
It’s More Economical
Another benefit of foaming hand soap is that it is more economical than traditional hand soap. You only need to use a small amount of soap to get a good lather, meaning each bottle lasts longer.
It’s More Eco-Friendly
Foaming hand soap is also more eco-friendly than traditional hand soap as it contains no harsh chemicals or artificial fragrances. Additionally, most foaming hand soaps are made with recycled materials, which helps to reduce your carbon footprint.
It’s More Gentle on Your Hands
Foaming hand soap is also more gentle on your hands than traditional hand soap, as it contains no harsh chemicals or abrasives. This makes it ideal for people with sensitive skin or those who suffer from conditions such as eczema.
It’s More Fun to Use!
Last but not least, foaming hand soap is more fun to use! The light, airy texture of the foam feels refreshing on your hands, and the dispenser often makes a satisfying ‘squish’ sound when you press it, which can be oddly satisfying!
What’s in This DIY Foaming Hand Soap Recipe?
Castile Soap
There’s something special about Homebody Foaming Hand Soap! The secret? Castile soap. This mild, vegetable-based soap has been around since Roman times, but it’s still the secret weapon in top-of-the-line foaming hand soaps. Castile soap helps make Homebody’s exhilaratingly sudsy foam, which will make you want to wash your hands all day! Plus, with its soothing and non-irritating composition, you don’t have to worry about any funky chemicals irritating your skin.
Homebody Essential Oil Blend
Homebody’s foaming hand soap ushers in a new level of self-care with its natural and safe ingredient: the luxurious Homebody Essential Oil Blend. With a warm and woody aroma, this soothing blend will soothe your senses as you wash away bacteria and dirt from your hands. It’s even safe for children and pregnant/breastfeeding women – making it perfect for families that want to practice gentle hygiene without all of the harsh chemicals found in traditional hand soap!
Distilled Water
Homebody Foaming Hand Soap is made with only the most carefully selected ingredients, including distilled water. We use distilled water in our foaming hand soap because it’s free of sediments, calcium, or other minerals that irritate your skin and leave your hands feeling dry and uncomfortable.
Foaming Hand Soap Dispenser
A foaming hand soap dispenser is incredibly easy to use and touch-free, keeping areas cleaner than ever. Perfect for everyday use and ideal for combating even the most persistent dirt and grime, Homebody Foaming Hand Soap is everything you need for clean hands!
