Hi pana,
This thread has lots of advice that should help:
Liquid soap - is there an O/S version?
I'll add your thread to it later to keep the replies together.

No, it's not too runny. Undiluted it's quite thick and gloopy and one pump is normally too much soap for a quick hand-washing which is the reason why I diluted it It has a very light, fresh scent, not overpowering at all. It's dark blue stuff and I bought it quite a while ago so I don't know whether they're still carrying it or at the same price. Still, soap is soap is soap, so anything will do. Even washing-up liquid or Stardrops really.0

Hi,
I use the ceramic dispensers as well. At the moment we have Sainsburys basic liquid soap in the dispensers and Sainsburys basic bar soap on the bath. The bar soap is about 45p for 3 bars.
I've used cream bath and baby bath in the past, both seem the same to me,never tried the bubble bath though.0 -
Yea I think a good idea soap container would be nice.
Wondering whats aldi or lidl like for soap liquid?
I use Aldi liquid soap the lilac one is a good colour match for my cloakroom and they do an anti bac which I use in the kitchen which smells nice and costs a fraction of the brands.0 -
what can you use instead? I have so much soap at home but unfortunately I really don't like using soap in the shower, does anybody know if I I can turn soap into shower gel?..... Last question : Can I use bath foam in the shower? I have noticed it is always cheaper than shower gel but is it ok to use in a shower? Thanks for any advice. I really don't want to spend more money than I have to on this product in the future0

Bath foam doesn't lather up as much as shower gel.It's not how far you fall - it's how high you bounce back.... :jHappiness is not a destination - it's a journey0

I found this on pinterest the other week. Hope it helps.Opinion on everything, knowledge of nothing.0 -
Well, the main ingredients are the same in most cheap liquid soap-type products so they will all get you clean. I have used most of them as handwash and find it all works fine, though OH doesn't like it much.
I suggest giving it a go - cheap bath foam costs only a few pennies and can be used for cleaning the bath if you don't like it. (Or even *gasp* having a relaxing bubble bath!) Maybe use a sponge/loofah/scrubber type thing to help the foam if necessary.Trust me - I'm NOT a doctor!0 -

Thanks so much for this..... I think it answers several of my questions. I can turn all the seriously posh soaps I have (I got all of them as gifts!) into shower gels and save myselft some money :T0
