Radox Aroma Burst Handwash

...Superdrug recently I noticed that Radox have a new line of liquid soaps out and yes they were on offer (any 2 for £2 or £1.69 each), well you know me I couldn't help myself and tend to only buy liquid soaps as I’ve never really been that keen on bars of soap in the bathroom, the mess it makes when the soap is placed on the sink is horrible, it looks unsightly and if you ask me it's not quite as hygienic as liquid soaps seem to be, the thought of ...
...the years, particularly favouring the Radox and Palmolive range.

When I spotted the orange coloured liquid of the Aroma Burst Handwash or rather it spotted me and began shouting for me to come and pick it up, so I did, in fact I picked up 2 of them, well the offer was on anyway, why not?

Unlike the usual Radox hand wash range, they have updated the packaging giving it a more modern look coming in a clear plastic 300ml ... more

I'll try anything once, well anything in the toiletries line and especially if I happen to like some of the manufacturers other products then you can guarantee I'll be purchasing, especially if it's colourful, sad I know, but for some reason I just adore vibrant and lucious shades of foam baths, soaps etc, I don't know what it is but the colours seem to invite me to indulge.

Browsing around Superdrug recently I noticed that Radox have a new line of liquid soaps out and yes they were on offer (any 2 for £2 or £1.69 each), well you know me I couldn't help myself and tend to only buy liquid soaps as I’ve never really been that keen on bars of soap in the bathroom, the mess it makes when the soap is placed on the sink is horrible, it looks unsightly and if you ask me it's not quite as hygienic as liquid soaps seem to be, the thought of washing someone else’s germs over my hands doesn’t float my boat I’m afraid.

These days I don’t really stick to any particular brand, as they all seem quite good and just as effective, in fact I would say I have probably tried most of them over the years, particularly favouring the Radox and Palmolive range.

Unlike the usual Radox hand wash range, they have updated the packaging giving it a more modern look coming in a clear plastic 300ml bottle letting you see the orange liquid it holds within and of course a silver plastic pump action lid making it easier for dispensing.

The scent is not overpowering, it reminds me of entering a fruit shop, only more subtle, but I have to say I think it’s more like tangerines than oranges which is surprising considering it has added orange oil but it’s certainly delightful and enough to make you feel clean and refreshed. Along with the orange oil they have also added olive essence which is renowned for it’s conditioning properties and yes it does seem to work as I don’t always feel the need to apply hand cream as much as I used to, which was quite a lot as I seem to suffer from dry skin on my hands but that’s probably due to the fact that I work with newspapers all day, but being a girlie person, I do happen to like having soft cleansed hands as I think you can tell a lot about the person from their hands, personal hygiene, how they look after themselves, if they are hard working, well I could go on all day but you probably get my drift.

I find it’s great first thing in the morning, imagine me stumbling into the bathroom all bleary eyed and half asleep until that is I wash my hands and find it's zesty scent seems to weave itself around the room within a matter of seconds and seems to linger for a good while afterwards, probably about an hour or so and on a few occasions my guests have commented on how the soap makes the bathroom smell nice following use.

It’s very easy to use, simply follow the instructions on the lid and turn the pump to open and simply push down facing away from you is a good idea and be careful not to press too hard as the last thing you want is squirts of soap over your clothing, a soft half pump will produce a small amount of this rich creamy fluid which is just enough to clean your hands. Simply add a little water rubbing your hands together to form a lather, then rinse off again, dry hands and away you go with clean, fresh and moisturised hands. So would I recommend it?? YESSSSSSS!

In all the time I have been using Radox, I have never experienced any reaction but that is probably down to the fact that their products are pH balanced and dermatologically tested, but it’s best to be on the safe side, test a little on a patch of your skin first of all before using it on your hands or face.
