Iceland (Washing Liquid)

Advantages: Makes clothes feel lovely
Disadvantages: Where was my dosing ball?

...Getting to the end of my first bottle of fairy non-bio. Fairy non-bio is a liquid clothes detergent, turquoise in colour and smells really nice. Since I have started using it I have really noticed the difference. My clothes feel lovely! They feel nice when they come out of the wash and great once they have dried. I line dry (or clothes horse dry) my clothes and one thing I have noticed is that you do not get that stiff powdery feeling on the clothes once they have been on the line for the day. They actually feel like they have been tumble dried with bounce (even though they haven't). The clothes smell fantastic and it is quite pleasant when you are drying them indoors as the aroma seems to be carried around the house, very fresh! Again there is no stiffness in the clothes they feel fab even if you have to dry them near a radiator... Read review

Advantages: Helps wash dirty dishes for a great price
Disadvantages: Only comes in one sized bottle

...I first bought Morning Fresh when it was on a promotion in which I got 750ml for the price of 500ml, and since then it has been my preferred brand of washing-up liquid. It is a brand from Cussons, who are a well-known household name, and mainly focus on personal care, their most famous brands being Imperial Leather and Carex. Coming from such a popular brand, you might expect it to be among the most expensive on the shelves, but it is significantly cheaper than what one would regard as the 'top' brands. So how does it wash up? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One of the things I find most annoying (apart from having to wash up in the first place!) is pouring a sink for washing up, full of bubbles, and two or three minutes later, all the bubbles have gone! I have found this happens with many cheap or 'own-brand' washing up liquids, but I don... Read review

Advantages: Easy to grip bottle, reasonable price
Disadvantages: Inefficient, too perfumey

...Active:naturals washing up liquid with extracts of parsley and lemon As one who seems to spend life washing up (as opposed to having a washed up life, I suppose), I have yet to find the perfect washing up liquid. One that smells nice, doesn’t mess up my skin and that actually serves to wash up. So, as part of this quest, I have tried this product and bring you my findings. This one is made by Sainsbury’s and priced at 79p for 500 ml. It comes in an uninspiring squat and squeezy clear plastic bottle with a pull-up top. It dispenses relatively efficiently, but like all washing-up liquid bottles, it does get slightly messy in use and this one can’t even be made into a rocket (Blue Peter style) once the contents have gone. The bottle does have indentations making it easier to grip – but if you hold it in the way suggested by the shape... Read review
