Liquid Soap Is Essentially Bottled Water
In addition to being simpler to manufacture, it's worth noting the differences in shipping/transport - both in terms of volume and in terms of mass. Water is very heavy - 62.4 lb/cu. ft. Add in the extra packaging for all of those bottles and you have a significant amount in addition to the plastic.
Pretty much every bottle of liquid product in your home falls into this category. Laundry detergent, shampoo, dish detergent, most spray cleaners and especially drinking water. A solid home filter + soda stream can make a variety of fizzy drinks nowadays, no need to ship water across the world. We have the technology to be smarter than that.
