The Handysoap dispenser is actually a hand made out of soap that sits on your wall (or sink) and gives you a helping hand when getting clean (ha!). The next time you're on the market for a [new soap dispenser](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/native-liquid-hand-soap), don't go for that regular liquid soap, invest in the Handysoap!

The Handysoap will [scare your guests](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wednesday-thing) and lend you a hand in the mornings when you're not entirely awake yet. I would totally invest in the Handysoap; these things would go great with that ['Psycho' shower curtain](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scan-me-for-scares) that I'm thinking of getting to redecorate the bathroom.
