Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need to dilute this base?
A: Nope! It’s ready to use right out of the bottle. Just add fragrance and optional color, and you’re good to go.

 

Q: What kind of bottles should I use?
A: You’ll need foaming pump bottles (not standard pump bottles) to get that luxurious, bubbly foam.

 

Q: Can I add colorant to my foaming hand soap?
A: Yes! Just make sure it is a water-soluble, skin safe liquid colorant! We recommend personal care dyes for this!

 

Q: How do I label my foaming hand soap? What requirements are there?

A: There are some special requirements for labeling your foaming hand soap since it is a cosmetic product. Click here for more information. 

 

Q: I am having trouble getting my fragrance oil to bind with my foaming hand soap base. Can you help?

A: Yes! Some fragrances may be a little more tricky than others to get to bind properly! Click here for our troubleshooting guide. 

 

Q: Can I use essential oil instead of fragrance oil?

A: Yes! We recommend you use no more than 0.5% of essential oil since they tend to be less soluble.

 

Q: Is this base antibacterial?

A: No, it is not an antibacterial hand soap. Antibacterial soaps must be registered with the FDA as over-the-counter drugs, requiring strict regulatory oversight and compliance. Our foaming hand soap is designed to effectively cleanse and wash away germs.

Balancing Out the People Who Don't Understand Reviews...

3 Stars because you're allergic to an ingredient? These are times we (shhhhhh)... and realize not everything is just about us. Star ratings are hard to pull up.

And yes, it's too early to review because it hasn't arrived... to be fair, they didn't ask you to. They just wanted an easy way. that works in their platform, to announce their new launch and create a waitlist. Anyone with a credible business understands. <3

We have loved everything from MFC so far, and can't wait to try this base. Sometimes small businesses need to speak up for eachother.

Lots of love! -N

Stupid for anyone to review a product that has yet to be sold let alone one they have yet to try. However, I’m offering a 5 star to bury an unwarranted 3 star review by a ridiculous customer. My wife and I use many of MWFC’s fragrance oils and premade bases for a variety of products at home and for resale. We have yet to find better quality at a more affordable price anywhere else. We look forward to trying this product as well :)
