I finished an old bottle of Dr. Teal's ($11.50/l) foaming bath soap and am looking for recommendations of Canadian/other non-US alternatives.

Rocky mountain soap has one at $49/l which is insane when you compare it with the other product lol. Anyone got a good alternative?

Edit - I'm basically looking for a good foamy soap to turn my bathtub into this occasionally --

They’re in Quebec I think

Edit: I just just realized that was hand soap, which might not be what you’re looking for. But maybe they have it?

    I have no idea if the product is good, but this sounded interesting. They sell pouches of powder that you mix with water

    We developed a circular refill system and plant-based formulas to helps you feel fresh all day and sleep better at night.

    I hand make everything in our small Victoria, BC -based workshop. I inspect every ingredient, I mix everything together, I package every pouch and I personally ship out every order

    The starter set is $45 and refills are $25-$35, which might still be too expensive for some. I don't know if you NEED to get the starter set first since you might already have a compatible container / dispenser?

    Maybe once they scale up, they can bring the prices lower

    Check out offerings from Caprina, we use their hand soap and it's the only soap I've found that doesn't leave my hands completely dry every time.

    Can't speak to the "bubblyness" of their bubble bath stuff, but can recommend the soap in general :)

    Made in Canada soaps + Santrel (parent corp) is a Quebec based company.

    I'm loving that user are adding direct links as well :) Makes it so much easier for shopping. Although these are all Shopify websites.

    Your local health foods store likely has something Made in Canada (MiCa), and would allow you to pay with Interac/Debit as well.

    I just checked Canada Post web shop for fun, and found these although neither company looks to be Canadian.

    Rocky Mountain has lost the plot. They have really nice shampoo, but buy Canadian doesn’t mean I’m going to spend that sort of money. Which is too bad, as I really like their products. Been a long time consumer of theirs too. Oh well.

    Aside from the soap, a good "bubbler" will help. I remember having a bathtub with glass ahower doors as a kid, and my dad brought home a bathtub "spa" thingy. It was a plastic base with holes that blew bubbles. That's it.

    Mix with a 7 year old at bathtime... bubbles to the ceiling!
