I love Bath and Body Works Foaming Soap, but hate the look of their plastic bottles. Has anyone tried to use B&amp;BW foaming soap in this dispenser?

Any foaming soap should work in this pump. I have never had any problems using other brands.

It is a thinner soap so if you reuse a foaming bottle with half soap and water it will foam. Not a cream cleanser at all.I love this soap. I don't think you'll be disappointed at all.

Yes, it looks to be the same product. But I just put mine in a foaming soap dispenser and it is not liquid anymore, less spillage when pumping that way. :)

Probably, since foaming soap is a liquid. However, it won't foam the liquid.Dave Chase

I use it full strength in my foaming soap dispenser and it works great. Makes my hands soft, too. I've had a number of people ask what soap I use because they like the feel and delicate scent.

You can use pretty much any brand of liquid soap. However, those types that have a REAL lot of thick, "creamy" skin conditioner generally do not mix well with added water and thus are usually not a good choice for use in foam dispensers.

Yes, This product foams just like your normal bath soap. That is why I chose it over another product.

I haven't, but I'd be surprised if you couldn't. I use dish soap in mine and that's about as thick as lotion.

I'm afraid I can't help. Mine works fine. Maybe the soap-to-water proportions aren't correct in your two which don't foam?

That's exactly why I bought these--popped one atop a reused condiment bottle. The soap (7th generation) flows freely but there are other problems... ... There is a small tube inside that necessitates you have at least 3" of soap left in the bottle, so you can never really let it get down to the bottom, and the soap doesn't really cleanly cut off pouring on this like a true liquid (liquor) does so there is a lot of excess soap gunk and drip mess atop the bottle, wasted and ugly. Basically I used up all my liquid soap and made me choose to buy bar dish soap... still yet better looking than a commercial ugly container!

yes, I use Dr Bronners soap & water. I am returning this pump. It does not pump well.

I have both the Brambleberry and this Freshware mold as well. For soap making, the Brambleberry mold has better support and the bar shape turns out nicely. The Freshware mold bows out and the sides are rounded. Hope this helps.

You press down on the top of the dispenser, not the spout. When you add the soap and water if it does not come out foamy, hold the dispense upside down and gently swirl the mixture, and then turn it upright. It should work now. Some soap mixes more easily then others. Best dispenser available.

No, it does not automatically dispense. You have to push down on the top. The one I bought only worked for the first few days, after that, you had to lean your entire body weight on it to get even a tiny bit of soap out of it. I tossed mine and went back to using an empty bottle from Bath & Body Works.

I own both, and I like both for different reasons. The BB mold is much more stable than this one, but this one is easier to unmold, since you can push the soaps out individually (invert each cube to push it out), while the BB mold requires you to loosen up each side around the cube before it lets loose. As others have mentioned, if you use this one, you *really* have to have something under it before you can move it - it will flop all over the place, spilling soap everywhere. I make CP soap.

if the thickness is same or comparable to hand soap (like softsoap brand) there should be no problem.i found that if you use watery soap (that is used in foaming hand soap) the dispenser does not work.

I've only used it in a Dial hand soap pump. You can always add water to it to change the viscosity of it for foam type dispensers.
