Hi all! I'm trying to find the brand name of the vibrant pink colored liquid hand soap common in public restrooms- schools, airports, gas stations, etc. in the American west coast. It is very sweet smelling, not quite bubblegum, and not flowery or other common soap scents.

Microbiologists have discovered that some of the soap in public restrooms is so contaminated with fecal matter that you're almost better off washing your hands in the toilet after you flush it. Sources of these substances include soap residues in bathing areas, feces in toilets, soap and food residues in sinks and food residues in pet water dishes.
