Since I am going to start doing the interactive shows, I figured that I could use PC products for them to wash their hands with. Should I get the Suds Pump or the Lemon and Rosemary hand soap? I know the suds pump would be cheaper but wasn't for sure how good the hand soap smells.

Also, I would like to use the new green microfiber towel. Make me like it, I hate the darn things! I think they are scratchy and weird. Can I make the scrathiness go away? But I figure the microfiber towel is supposed to be more absorbant so it would probably be good to use if alot of people are washing their hands.
 
I love the soap, personally.

The micro-fiber towels are scratchy if your skin is dry! They are the most absorbent towel - tyr it while cleaning or drying dishes. It will also soak up HUGE spills quickly.
 
You could get the suds pump and the L&R hand soap. The suds pump would help your L&R handsoap to last longer than just using it straight from the soap dispenser.
 
I love the soap and the towel. If your skin is dry the towels are yucky... moisturize!
 
I agree, I don't like the microfiber towels for drying my hands. I do love them for drying dishes & dusting. Just don't forget don't wash them with fabric softener. I would also reccommend the Suds Pump. I love how you can make soap last longer. I personally buy Sauve's Holiday Hot Chocolate Soap around Christmas & use that in my Suds Pump.
 
I would recommend the soap and use regular kitchen towels for them to dry their hands!!:) :)

I have sold a ton of soap because of people that actually use it!! And I love my microfiber, but many people are weirded out by the scratchyness...but this is the microfibers...this is why they work...so there is no way to get rid of it.

It is a very good idea, never thought about it that way. Now I just have to figure out what I can spend. I need to order a new pizza cutter - mine grew legs and walked away, mini tart shapper since mine looks crappy from accidently putting it in the dishwasher and a new kitchen spritzer to take to my shows for my new spring/summer recipes.
