Green Product Review: Manor Hall Soap Company Liquid Hand Soap

by Jennifer on July 9th, 2008

Our Summer Scrub Down Contest has one week left, and I’ve got a few product Manor Hall Soap Company reviews left.

Today I thought we’d look at Natural Liquid Hand Soap Pink Grapefruit Petals. This hand soap comes in many other scents as well. I’m glad we got grapefruit though - grapefruit and I go way back.

Ingredients: Saponified oils of coconut and olive, glycerin, oleic acid and pink grapefruit petals essential oil blend.

Cost: $8.35 for 8oz

Overall I really like this soap. I love that it doesn’t leave your hands dry like most hand soaps do. It smells great, and the packaging is pretty. That said, I likely wouldn’t buy it. Mainly because I have refillable bottles, and it’s cheaper and more eco friendly to use my refillable containers. I would get this as a gift for someone.

My son is another story: He LOVES this soap. We get plenty of free stuff, what with all the blogging I do, but none of the free stuff ever impresses Cedar. He slightly paid attention when someone sent us lolly pops, but usually he’s like, “Whatever.” When we got this box of products from Manor Hall, he helped unpack it and smelled all of it as we went. When we got to the hand soap he fell in love. He kept smelling it and then wanted to use it right away.

He was in the bathroom lathering up and told me, “This is the best soap ever!… We should send that soap lady a thank you card!” Now I don’t know about your seven year old son, but mine never talks about soap like this. What child does this? In any case, I’ve now caught him in the bathroom three times washing up, when clearly no washing up is needed. He said he just wanted to smell the soap. He dragged two friends I had over into the bathroom, just to smell the darn soap.

Should I be worried? I suppose there are worse things for a child to get addicted. My son would buy this soap, I’m quite sure. So there you have it. My son’s favorite Manor Hall product. I think my son is a pretty smart kid, so obviously this soap gets:

Five out of five stars. It works, smells great, and makes your children addicted to clean. Enter to win some Manor Hall Hand Soap for your own kids.
