Yes, you can buy refills for the foaming hand soap containers. You just have to read all the refill bottles and pick the correct one.

I buy my foaming soap/refills from the Vermont Soap Company. (They used to sell on QVC, but they got lost in the shuffle.)

What is so great about foaming soap?

The soap is already lathered when you use it.  Sort of like a lightweight mousse.   I can still smell the Tiramisu scent.  Heavenly

Hi @geegerbee,

When I was using foamers more regularly, I would use thinner/more liquid shower gels or thinner bubble baths in them for the liquid soap portion, and those seemed to work the best for me. I seemed to have the best luck with them.

Anything that was more "gel-like/creamier" tended to clog up the foamers, and they would wear out faster, even if I tried to use less of it or use it sparingly, like if it was a favorite scent and I wanted to use it in a foamer. It just wouldn't work out that well. 

This would happen with a very large empty foamer that you could buy, that was made to be used with different soaps.

I wasn't re-using one that had already contained a retail product, so I don't know if that would be any different regarding  size, mechanism, and so on.

If you want  a fragrance to the foaming soap do I need to use scented soap or uncented and add fragrance...and would that be an oil for the fragrance?
