Cost: $7.99 for 16.9 oz. at Whole Foods (got it on sale for $5)
Notes: Great lather, but runny consistency
Repurchase? Yes.
I wash my hands a lot, and usually find soap very drying on my hands. However, this soap was different! The bottle states it is "ultra moisturizing with olive and argan oils," and it can be used on hands or on your body. I never felt like this soap dried out my hands, and I'm almost finished with the entire bottle! (It contains 16.9 oz--much larger than most hand soap bottles!) It has a delicate floral smell--you can clearly smell it while you're using it, but it only stays on your hands for a few minutes afterwards. (My husband appreciates this, but I love the smell!) I also love the simple ingredient list.
The only thing I don't like about it is the consistency is quite runny. (My husband thought I added water to it. I didn't, but it's the first ingredient listed.) That being said, it still lathers very well (especially with no sulfates), and doesn't dry out my skin. It is not an antibacterial soap--I won't get into the debate on whether you need an antibacterial soap or not, as everyone has their own opinions about the short and long-term use of antibacterial soaps. I'm just stating that this one is not antibacterial.
I think this would make an excellent body wash, but haven't tried it yet. The pump almost dispenses too much for your hands (probably because the consistency is so thin), so it might be better in the shower. However, as the only hand soap that hasn't made me run for hand cream, so far it's a keeper.
Ingredients: filtered water, coconut and olive oil, natural vegetable glycerin, argan oil, tocopherol (vitamin e), natural fragrance with plant extracts and essential oils
