I ordered and received the fragrance-free 128oz foaming hand and body wash. I think it’s accurate that there is no fragrance as I can’t smell anything. It’s a very moisturizing soap which works well for its stated dual purpose as a body wash. I think it would work well for that also. My hands feel soft and clean after using this soap. I have 16 oz pump soap dispensers that I refill with this soap and it will last awhile. I think it’s a good value for the quality of the soap and I’m happy with it. Read more
This smells really good, i wouldnt say its to strong but you definitely smell it when washing and it will linger for a while after. Which i do really like. We mainly use it as a hand soap, but we've started using it as body wash for my daughter. I've been trying to switch out our products little by little to all natural/organic and the new (big brand) body wash we were using was giving her itchyness. Since switching to this shes been perfectly fine. It fathers well and doesnt leave you dry. A little really does go along way. We have a big household that homeschools, so we are always home and maybe its just because its a foaming soap but we arent going through it as fast as my normal soap. I feel like the price point may be coming from it being all natural and organic ingredients and knowing your getting a good quality. Overall Im very happy with this and didn't have any negatives.

I ordered the unscented foaming hand wash, but I received the unscented hand and body wash. The product I did receive would need to be put into a regular pump dispenser. I tried watering it down to put it in a foaming dispenser and it either did not mix properly, or I got a bad water/soap ratio, and the pump is almost impossible to dispense any foam. I may try watering it down a bit more, but I will probably use the rest of this in traditional soap or body wash dispensers. I have not used this yet as a body wash, but as a hand wash, it creates a nice lather, has no noticeable scent, and it does not dry your hands out. I like that you can add your own scent by adding essential oils if you want. Read more
We have used this as a body wash and hand wash and enjoy it either way. The lavender scent is strong but not overwhelmingly so, and creates a soothing bath environment. The soap also does not feel harsh or drying on the skin even though it leaves you feeling clean. It lathers nicely, which is a bonus, since my husband cannot stand natural soaps that produce no foam. He feels as though he can’t tell if he is actually cleaning anything. We both have sensitive skin and didn’t experience any bad reactions to this soap. The jug it comes in is absolutely huge and definitely has enough refills for a dispenser for many, many months. Read more
This has been a very versatile soap we have been using around the house and in the shower. With all of the natural ingredients used in the soap there is no need to worry about harsh chemicals leaching into your hands or body. We have used it to bath the children, wash dishes, wash the dogs, wash hands, and more. It does a great job at removing dirt, grease, and all smells. The price does seem steep given that this is soap but value wise this is a great deal for the quality of product you are receiving. It does a decent job at foaming unlike other natural soaps I have used in the past. Overall this is a great product and if you are considering purchasing you shouldn't pass it up. Read more
This review is for SoCal Suds & Company 128oz Certified Organic Foaming Hand & Body Wash - Natural Wash for Sensitive Skin, Moisturizing All-Purpose Foaming Castile Soap- Lavender PRO(S) - It smells good. - It's effective at cleaning oil and mild dirt and debris. - It foams and lathers well. - It doesn't leave my skin dry. CON(S) - Regarding the value, as a way of comparison, Mrs Myers individual hand soap is roughly $5/12oz. or $0.41/oz. Bath & Body Works soap, currently on sale, is $3.50/8.75oz or $0.40/oz. This product is currently $57/128 oz or $0.44/oz. Seeing as the Mrs Myers and B&BW prices are for individual sizes, not bulk, I don't see that the value here is in buying a large quantity. Additionally, at this price point a pump should be included. The value here is the reason for the three stars. Read more
This is very nice hand and body soap and does leave your skin feeling very soft and moisturized. I love the ingredients and being a foaming soap, a gallon will last longer than a gallon of regular soap. However, $57 still seems a bit high to me. It is fragrance free and unscented and is made of all natural ingredients so I guess I can understand the price point. It can also be used on pets and babies which does make it very versatile as well. I even tried it on my dishes and it cleaned and degreased without leaving a film or residue and works fabulously on the built up grease on my tea kettle. I definitely do highly recommend this foaming soap, but for myself, I will use it sparingly when I feel like it would be beneficial to use. Read more
I've sometimes had issues with "natural" foaming soaps, in that... they just won't foam well. This one does. I actually ended up liking it a lot. The lavender scent is pleasant, but not overpowering, and the soap doesn't dry out my hands like some do (I use it in the kitchen and I wash my hands frequently when I cook, so this is a big deal to me). Overall, I really like this soap. Definitely one of the better ones I've tried. Read more
