FIG. 7 is a left side elevational view of a second embodiment of a refillable, reusable, liquid soap to foam dispenser, showing my new design, with FIG. 7 stippled and lined to show contrasting colors, and with the remainder of the views being identical to the first embodiment except for the coloration;

FIG. 8 is a left side elevational view of a third embodiment of a refillable, reusable, liquid soap to foam dispenser, showing my new design, with FIG. 8 lined to show two preferred colors, and with the remainder of the views being identical to the first embodiment except for the coloration;
