Re: Beekman liquid hand soaps

I found it is the beekman soap and not the pump. I have  simply human automatic soap pump. To my surprise, when I use the beekman soap in it, the soap stops up the opening and the soap shoots up in the air out of the soap dispenser.

I contemplated buying that for these problematic soaps, so glad I didn’t. I’ve really kind of had it with these soaps. Came home from work in a lousy mood. Changed into clean clothes and washed my hands, only to be assaulted by this stupid soap and ruined a clean t-shirt. I wanted to throw it out the window. And also break something.

Re: Beekman liquid hand soaps

You sound very upset. So sorry that a soap dispenser would cause you that much agrivation. It does that to me as well but I guess I have more patience. Small stuff to me. Besides the liquid soap seems to last long. The sudsy ones go too fast and dry my hands. 

  Why didn’t you give them to your local mission. The poor would have appreciated them. Or a neighbor. Giving is such a gift it didn’t matter that you used them. 

   Just a suggestion. Please don’t take this the wrong way.

It did make me very mad. Perhaps unreasonably so.  I spent a lot of money of these soaps ($40 for a 3-pack) and therefore expect even more from them than ordinary cheap soap.  Plus, my hormones are controlling me at the moment and causing unwarranted episodes of rage LOL.

I have the liquid hand soaps and yes the dispenser is a problem.  I love the hand soaps so much that I regularly pick off the build-up at the end of the dispenser.  Also I really cupy my hands under the dispenser so it doesn't go flying all over.  That helps.  In spite of this flaw, I have repurchased.


Same here.

No way would I get so mad at liquid soap that I would toss them in the trash, LOL.  I find that some non-Beekman liquid soap does the same thing from time to time.  I have a dispenser by my kitchen sink, and every now and then I notice that there is a small build up on the tip of the pump.  It takes just a few seconds to wash it away with very hot water, or sometimes I just add water and liquify the build-up in my hands if I need to clean my hands.

 

I think that the previous suggestion to call the Beekman customer service is an excellent one.  They seem very customer service oriented, I and think they would appreciate the feedback.

Re: Beekman liquid hand soaps

I am very new to the Beekman line, and also bought their set of lotion and liquid soap.  I prefer liquid soap to bar soap, I'd rather clean the dispenser once in a while than see a messy soap dish that also needs to be cleaned often.  JMO.

 

But, so far, I really like these products.

I have the same problem with the hand soap & it makes a mess.  I prefer foaming soap.  Where did you get the dispenser to convert to foam?  Also, these hand soaps are rather expensive.  I generally use Method foaming.


Just re-use the Method foaming dispenser.  Use very little soap and mostly water.  This will create the same type of creamy foam.
