...now you know it’s name Izal medicated toilet tissue. If you don’t remember these days, you are indeed fortunate! On paper, (pun very much intended) this offers a useful thing up to the discerning wiper of rear end’s and front bottoms. It's medicated to kill bacteria, therefore making your bottom a much more hygienic place ,although I wouldn’t try eating your dinner off it! Thats not a place you want your head to get stuck!
Less than attractive in ... ...a matt side. Izal have two versions of this awful, torturous, painful bottom wipe available to the masochistic consumer- a continuous roll, and a tidy little box, that fits conveniently into those beribboned satin pink tissue box covers you feel compelled to buy from your children’s school fetes. In my experience, this paper is rubbish. There's no way you can blow your nose on it without ending up with a vicious paper cut, and the snot just does ...

Izal toilet paper.
When I was little I can only remember izal toilet paper I do not think even if soft toilet paper had been invented then that is was common.
I remember having to go to our outside loo that did not flush, the “ bucket men” used to come ands collect every week.
I used to have to wipe my poor delicate bum on this paper ouch scratchy. Also at school I had to run across the school playground to visit the loos, I think ... ...who grew up with only izal still prefer to use Izal.
You young things have maybe never experienced Izal toilet paper it is made by jeyes ltd. It is packaged in a green paper wrapping it makes you think of medicated safe hygienic in fact it has a white/ pale green cross on it which makes you think of first aid.
Izal is Not chlorine bleached and the paper is from renewable resources
The description on the package uses the words strong, medicated. ...

Advantages: Evocative of a bygone age. Medicated. Clean smell. Disadvantages: Comfort level.
...but the experience of the Izal got me thinking "should I have scrunched it or folded it?" Neither seemed to work satisfactorily, and the folding proved a complete disaster. But life in the 40s and 50s seemed a lot happier than today and, if the Izal contributed to this in some way, then I'll keep trying...
It's good that Izal is available in both flat-pack and roll forms. It's possible to buy attractive porcelain flat-pack holders on eBay.
Overall, ...

Quick review of Izal Toilet Paper
Having read the other half dozen reviews I note that they all omit one further use of the Izal toilet paper that I remember from you youth. That is that Izal (like cut up pages of Worksop Guardian) serves as a reading aid. Each sheet bore the green cross in a diamond just above the perforations along with the words "Medicated with Izal Germicide".
Perhaps it isn't as interesting as reading Worksop Guardian, but at lease the ink never came off the Izal and so your arse only went from brown to red! ...

Advantages: Great tracing paper Disadvantages: Your fingers may slip through!!!
This tough and rough tracing paper-like, loo roll really is as old as the hills. It was always available at my school back in, yes well the yesteryear!! It is the sort of paper that you will often find in public loos (probably cheap to buy). Even though the price of public loos is a disgrace (that is another story).
It is very rough, (like wiping your bum on a sheet of A4) and as far as I am aware is available only in white. It is known for disintergrating ...

...there.On the contrary, after using Izal i feel like going out, chopping down and incinerating every tree i can possibly find just for fun. have you ever wondered what it would be like to go bare bum down a slide made of glass and sandpaper? If so, try this.however, it does have its strong points. one square efficiently removes the excrament and does not break, causing you to finger your own butt. Overall, it does the job. its only downfall is the ...
