this is my second favorite hand soap-- second to the green tea. It has a nice lather, and fresh scent- love it in the kitchen.

I really enjoy the scent and how well this soap works, but I've found that the consistency is hard to get used to. Unlike other soaps, this is more "loose" which means you don't need to press the pump hard to get product out.
If you press down the pump with the usual amount of force that other soaps require, this soap does a projectile squirt. My husband has ended up with a soapy shirt on multiple occasions because of this.

Heavenly scent
April 10, 2011
Pros: only a small amount gives lots of creamy lather.
This is wonderful hand soap. I have very dry, sensitive skin and this product leaves my hands feeling soft and clean instead of rough, dry and itchy. The fresh, spicy scent is an added bonus.

great purchase
April 5, 2011
This is a great product. I have a lot of ("age brown spots" ) on my hands, I am shocked and thrilled they 50% lighter after using this hand soap for two weeks. I have not used anything to lighten these brown spots, so doubt it is the soap. The scent is great. Love this product.

Intoxicating!
January 17, 2011
Pros: Non-drying, Smells great
Of the scents I've experienced so far with BB's soap-like products - Pomegranate and Soy/Rosemary and Peppermint/Citrus and Ginger Root - the Citrus and Ginger Root is my favorite. It helps wake me up in the morning. It smells more Ginger Root than Citrus to me. I'm reluctant to rinse off the suds because they smell so wonderful. I have to inhale them for a couple of seconds before rinsing. If this were a drug, I'd have to go to rehab!
A pea-sized amount produces ample suds. After gently rinsing my hands, I use the remaining suds to wash my face. It's like a soap, mosturizer, and aroma-therapy combined in one!

Pros: Non-drying, Smells great
I was hesitant to try this soap because I don't usually like orange scent, but it was surprisingly subtle in my opinion. Just a nice clean scent, and the soap does a great job.

September 10, 2010
Pros: Non-drying
I really like this hand soap because it lathers well and removes dirt gently. The scent isn't really my favorite but it's not bad. I used to have to use lotion after washing my hands, but with this soap I don't NEED to (I usually do though)

Energizing!
July 20, 2010
Pros: Non-drying
This hand soap claims to be "Extra Energizing" which it definitely is. Even when I had a cold the citrus aroma penetrated my clogged sinuses. Cleans well without any drying. It is a bit more watery than the "big box" soaps so make sure your hand is under when you press that pump. I only need a little for basic cleaning so the bottle should last a while. I prefer the smell of the green tea hand soap but if you like the smell of citrus and ginger this is for you.

Great for winter skin
January 14, 2010
Pros: Non-drying
I just ordered this based on customer reviews and I am glad I did. It's so gentle and cleans so well. My hands smell fresh, but my favorite part is how SOFT they feel after washing. This is perfect for my sensitive cracked winter hands.

At first I wasn't sure about this product, but after using a whole bottle I am re-ordering. It cleans gently and I like the way my hands feel and smell after I wash them.

so much better
November 11, 2009
Pros: Non-drying, really gentle, nice lather
I have problems with really dry skin on my hands because I have to wash them so often. This soap is so much better than what I had been using. No matter how much I wash my hands, they stay soft and moisturized.

I am surprised to see that so many people liked this product. To me, it smelled so terrible that I couldn't even consider using it and had to exchange it.
