This is a failure
on January 12, 2023
Posted by: NJ customer
There is something about the new formula for the Aloe soft soap that has turned my hands into a red, raw, itchy and flaky mess. It looks like I have red gloves on - the color change stops at my wrists where I stop washing with your soap. In addition, the overpowering fragrance lingers for hours and is, to be blunt, unpleasant. I can't believe that after all the negative reviews for the new fragrance/formula that it is still being produced.
I do not need your customer service to tell me to try another of your highly fragranced products. I need your company to admit it made a mistake. This is a failure. Please go back to the original formula which was moisturizing and barely fragranced.

Anyone remember the Fiasco of New Coke? Same fiasco, different product! "Fresh Scent" smells like cleaning products. My hands smell like the solution Swiffer Wet pads soak in. The irony is I would wash my hands to get rid of that smell after cleaning my floors. If I want to smell like my kitchen floor, I will just use the liquid in the Swiffer Wet package to wash my hands.

We’re sorry to learn you don’t like our new Aloe formula. Please come to our website where many other wonderful fragrances await!
I am so sad! This has been my go-to hand soap for over a decade. I have very sensitive skin and get headaches from strong fragrances. I am not kidding when I say it smells like used laundry detergent to wash my hands after using the new formula. Also soap no longer foams. Unfortunately, the overpowering scent is a no go for me. I literally need to wash my hands with something else to remove the perfume.
As others have mentioned, the new scent is way too strong! The smell remains well after you have washed your hands. The two main reasons why we have used this soap for years is that it isn't harsh on the hands and that it has no sent. Please bring back the old formula or at least offer it as an alternative to this stronger scented product. We will have to find a new soap brand otherwise.

Terrible new scent
on January 9, 2023

The new "Aloe Vera" scent is terrible. It is very strong and lingers on your hands. I don't know why it has been changed, but it is a poor choice. As somebody with sensory issues the old formula was the only soap I could use, this new soap is unusable. Please change it back to the old scent and formula.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The new formula is not moisturizing, it dries your skin. And the new scent is too strong. You have ruined a wonderful product. Never again

We’re sorry our new Aloe formula fragrance is not to your liking. Please call 1-800-255-7552 and tell our specialist about your experience. We want to make this right for you.
The old formula was amazing! I am very sensitive to scents and get migraines easily, so I am very picky when it comes to soap. The old formula was my absolute favorite! It had a nice light scent and left my hands feeling soft and hydrated. The new formula is awful! Not only does it have a stronger scent that bothers me, but it also leave my hands feeling very dry. Now I have to go to store to store searching for the old label. I don’t know what I will do when I run out of my bottles of the old formula, but I will definitely not be re-purchasing any of the new fragrance. Why would you change something that is obviously loved by so many?! Please listen to your reviews and bring back the old formula, or at least something similar to it!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
