I decided to try Surcare as I intensely disliked the stong fragrance used by other washing up liquids and the aftertaste the residue left in cups etc if they are not thoroughly rinsed. I had tried Ecover washing up liquid but that was a little more expensive than the usual brands. One day I happened to spot Surcare on the supermarket shelves and decided to give it a try. Mainly because it was very reasonably priced at 76p and much cheaper than the most commonly known brand of washing up liquid.

At the moment they are on offer in Tesco's at 2 for a £1...

Surcare is specially made for those people who suffer from sensitive skins. It is unperfumed, dermatologist approved and contains no dyes. It comes in an atractive white 500ml bottle with a picture of a mother and young baby on the front.

The liquid is clear and unperfumed. You only need a small amount to make the water frothy and bubbly. Just use in the usual way. The liquid thoroughly cleans washing up and does not leave any offensive taste on cups . Also it is very kind to the skin and there are no adverse effects from washing up with this.

With baked on foods you would need to soak the items for an hour or so to soften the deposits as you would with most other liquids. It is easy to rinse off any deposits left by the washing up liquid.

The only disadvantage is that it does tend to come out of the bottle very quickly because of the size of the hole and it is all too easy to use too much. You do have to learn to discipline yourself.

To sum up then, Robert McBride Ltd, the manufacturer of Surcare, does not test any products on animals. Surcare washing liquid is non-biological, free of dyes, perfume and other unnecessary additives and is created especially for more sensitive skins yet can still deliver excellent cleaning results.

Although I have not yet tried other Surcare products their range includes automatic washing powder, washing tablets, concentrated liquid wash and fabric conditioner. Other brand names that are produced by Thomas McBride include Elementals, Brio, Springfresh, Clean 'n' Fresh, Neon, 'Q', Shine, Miraglo, Rapid and Superguard. .
