Help! I Can't Pump The Soap
By Sparkle333 onWhen is a bargain not a bargain? When it doesn't work! I purchased this liquid hand soap because it was on sale at Target, and my favorite scent of lotion is Peppermint. However, when I got it home, and tried to open it, all the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't get the pump working properly.It would not release like it should. So I decide to use a pump from a Softsoap container. Unfortunately it didn't fit right, but fortunately, I could get it to pump, so the soap won't be a total waste!
The liquid soap is apparently organic, with no synthetic detergents or preservatives.It contains organic sugar and grape juice, and a castile soap base. It sounds lovely, doesn't it? But I frankly was not impressed. It was too sticky, and the peppermint fragrance was not quite right, or as strong as I had hoped. I'm not all that thrilled with organic shikakai from the seed pods of a South Asian tree, if the pump doesn't work, and it doesn't have the peppermint fragrance I wanted. (It's making me grumpy!!!)
I will use the soap, but I will not be buying it again.

Actually, the more I used it, the more I DID notice a nice peppermint smell. Don't know why it didn't have that fragrance in the beginning????? I actually DO like the fragrance, but never could get the pump to work right!
