The 10 Best Foaming Hand Soaps

Updated July 09, 2020 by Allean Phelps

This wiki has been updated 12 times since it was first published in May of 2020. Some experts question the effectiveness of foaming hand soaps compared to their liquid counterparts, but a review of the data shows that it is not the formula that is the problem. Since foam comes out already frothy, users may not spend as much time working the lather into their hands as with liquid or bar soap. If you follow the 20-second rule, though, these will keep germs at bay. When users buy our independently chosen editorial selections, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.

Editor's Notes

July 06, 2020:

Washing your hands is one of the best ways to prevent the spread of germs and prevent bacteria from entering the body. When you walk into most public restrooms, you'll notice that foaming soaps have replaced traditional bar and liquid options. There are many reasons for the switch. Foaming hand soaps are cost-effective, sustainable, and easy to use. Still, when you're washing your hands multiple times a day, you want a gentle formula.

Options like JR Watkins, 365 Everyday, Dial Complete, and GreenFist Angel Foam not only fight germs, but they are free of parabens, which may be good for preserving the product, but can be harmful if it enters the body through the skin.

Fomin Soap Sheets are a practical choice for those who travel a lot. These paper-thin soaps are made with all-natural ingredients and come in biodegradable packaging. The set includes three fragrances: sweet orange, tea tree oil, and refreshing lavender.
