What Is The Generic Product Name For Clarifoam Emolient?

On your site, someone asked if there was a generic product for Clarifoam Emolient, the answer was negative. Then another person responded the following: "Actually, there is a new generic for Clarifoam that was just released, maybe in May. They had to order it from the warehouse, but we finally got it! And it was only $10!"
The generic name product was not mentioned: can you tell me what is the name of the Generic product? Thank you,
