*** Persil Washing Up Liquid ***
Persil I think, are best known for their laundry powder. Maybe I've been burying my head in the sand, but I only recently discovered their washing up liquid and chose it mainly for it's price. It isn't presented in a particularly exciting bottle and it does look like an economy washing up liquid. However, what makes persil washing up liquid stand out, is that it contains baking soda. Now I don't ... ...have measured up to the persil standard. This is no doubt down to the baking soda that persil has in it and to be completely honest I love it! I really find it has made me enjoy washing up more because I love seeing the shiny results afterwards. That may sound strange but the results really are that good! There aren't even any little mucky bits anywhere and you can actually see yourself in everything. 4) Is It Quicker?

...village with porridge. Persil washing up liquid turned my washing bowl into a modern day equivalent of the magic porridge pot. i squeezed the magic green liquid into my bowl, poured the hot water on top of it and before i knew it the magic washing up bowl was producing bubbles and it wouldn’t stop. bubbles were streaming over the sides, on to the kitchen floor, through into the hallway, pouring down the front steps into the garden. Well, almost. ... ...THE VARIETIES
Persil have decanted their magic liquid into four different containers. this elixir comes in the following flavours: citrus burst (basically – orange, as indicated by the vivid fluorescent bottle, reminiscent of one of the more disturbing tango adverts) lemon zing anti-bacterial tea tree and peppermint anti-bacterial tea tree and rosemary The anti-bacterial varieties are about 15p more expensive than the others and don’t smell as nice. ...

Advantages: Good cleaning ability and value for money Disadvantages: Very strong over-powering "fragrance"!!
...This particular "flavour" of Persil brand can be found in a small, stocky clear bottle. It has a red flip top lid with White "Persil Aloe Fresh" label - with the familiar Persil logo.
The thing which I like about the bottle is that it is moulded in such a way that it has a "grab point" at the front and back of the bottle - that is to say that it is made easy to hold by dents and bumps on the bottle, so that it doesn't slip out of a hand which might ... ...sweet smelling room, courtesy of Persil for a fraction of the price of usual Air Fresheners!!
****LIQUID PERFORMANCE - DOES IT DO EXACTLY WHAT IT SAYS ON THE BOTTLE?****
The label on the back of the bottle professes "Long Lasting, efficient formulation dissolves grease quickly." And I have to agree with that statement. You don't need lots to create a basin full of bubbles - I use approximately a teaspoon full, and this lasts for a huge amount of ...

...Tesco’s had a special on Persil washing up liquids, I was a bit dubious to be honest. Still seeing as I give Danny the job of washing up most the time these days (All men should have at least one job in the house – especially if you have children!) I went with his judgement.
Here’s my opinion on Persil Naturgel Citrus scent.

It’s a bit of an odd shape really, Kind of rectangular with a rounded top. It’s a clear bottle with a silver ... ...contact information). The ingredients follow; Persil concentrate washing up gel contains amongst other ingredients: 15=30% Anionic surfactants. Less than 5% - Non-ionic surfactants, amphoteric surfactants.

Advantages: very effective on grease.It really works. Disadvantages: more expensive
...personally,in the cheaper ranges...
Persil Naturgel is,I have discovered,very kind to those with sensitive skin.It has never made my skin itchy,or red,and as I can't get on with gloves-this is important to me.And because it's a gel;feels light,cleaner and easier to use.
Asda sells it for £1.56 which sounds alot-but it is good quality,and lasts so well.
There are I think,2 other perfumes with this particular brand,ciao visitors are welcome to comment ... ...of the cheaper brands!)
Persil Naturegel 500ml e mint variety,can be purchased at any good supermarket.
The small,concentrated packaging makes it light and non bulky to carry home,and you definately get more for your money.
Like most,there is a warning on the back label to always rinse and dry hands thoroughly after use which is important if you do suffer from skin allergies.
The persil care line (UK) can be reached on;0800 -0280020.If you have ...

I’ve used Persil in the past and been quite satisfied with the results, but for some reason (probably just out of habit) I stayed loyal to my beloved Fairy. But the last time I went shopping, I was having a quick root round Pound Stretchers and I spotted Persil Naturgel (that is the way it’s spelt on the bottle by the way, it’s not a typo) lurking on the shelf. I don’t know how many different formulas there are to choose from, but here there ... ...always call one of the Persil care lines. The numbers are UK 0800 0280020, Republic of Ireland 1850 388 399, Northern Ireland 0800 7839 426.
So back to my experience of using this minty little wonder. The first time I tried this was after a Sunday lunch, you what I mean, roasting tin gravy pan etc, etc. Setting to work with the usual piping hot water I added a small blob of Persil and the mint fragrance hit me straight away and yet it wasn’t too ...

...up liquids until I discovered Persil Aloe Mild. It costs 79p for a 500ml bottle from Sainsburys. What actually attracted me to it was the thought of having Aloe Vera in a washing up liquid. Aloe vera is used today in many products, including cosmetics, skin lotions and moisturisers, burn gels and even sun screen creams. It is also quoted as being able to soften and moisturise ones skin so I convinced myself I will be giving myself a hand treatment ... ...later. It is labelled as Persil aloe mild concentrated washing up liquid, The colour of the label is light green I guess to match the aloe vera idea.. CONCENTRATED:-

...low price, I bought this Persil washing up liquid when in a hurry on my way out of work, as I had a pile of dishes by the sink about to sprout tiny legs and walk around the house.
We normally buy store brand liquid, or sometimes Fairy but I thought we should give this a try for a change. Its my decision anyway, Its me that does the dishes!

The bottle is see-through and has a red flip-up plastic cap. It is available at most shops and all major supermarkets.

You can't get other sizes with Persil, unlike other brands, but occasionally there will be a 50% extra free offer.
Other fragrances are lemon, green lemon and mint. I have the citrus one here which is orange in other words. There ...

...man thing, can’t really blame Persil for that!
According to the minuscule print on the bottle, the Tea Tree oil inside it is ‘known for its natural antibacterial properties’ and the peppermint is in there for its ‘fresh fragrance’. So now you know. Besides cleaning dishes, the bottle says you can use the washing-up liquid for applying neat to your sponge or dishcloth to prevent bacteria growing.

So far, I am impressed – it looks nice, smells nice and does the job. It was slightly more expensive than some of the others on the shelf, but at 87p for 500ml (Asda price) and with it being concentrated too, it should last over a week and be well worth the little bit extra. Now I just need a man who can wash up well ...

I've been using Persil washing up liquid for well over a year now, I would NEVER use anyother washing up liquid after using this. You obviously know the name Persil from washing powder and fabric softner, but have you seen the washing up liquid on the shelves in the supermarket? You can't miss them. They have just four different fragrances but they are very eye catching as the bottles are transparent so you can see the vibrant colors of the liquid ... ...the telephone nnumber for the Persil Careline.

You'll fint the fragrances invigorating too. I've yet to try the Baking Soda, but it's next on my list, when I finally get through ...

As I didn't buy this product myself, I looked on Tesco's website and the price for a 500ml bottle was at 74p, although undoubtedly this would vary between stores. It also comes in different flavours: citrus, aloe fresh and lemon.
The liquid itself is quite thin and in a clear green colour, you can just about smell the lemon scent but only if you really try to sniff it as the odour isn't as strong as I'd like ...

...what they have done to Persil washing up liquid is a similar thing. (No, they haven’t made it into flakes.) Something has happened to the formula. I used to use Persil for when I hand wash dishes but went over to Fairy.

Anyway, I did my usual and just squirted the liquid into the wash up bowl, added ... ...of bubbles for amount of the product I had used and a pleasant and fresh aroma, although I don’t know what aloe vera should smell like so I couldn’t describe it as such.
