Purple washing up liquid!

Advantages: Good price, works well, smells great
Disadvantages: None for me

...purchased another two bottles whilst the offer is on to keep in the cupboard for when the first ones run out. There are the usual warnings on the back of the bottle warning you not to get it in your eyes and to wash them well with clear water if you do. You are also advised not to use this if you have sensitive skin and to always rinse and dry your hands after use. We are also warned not to use this liquid to wash fabrics but again I can?t really see anyone putting it in the washing machine! In conclusion I would say that although this is a short review there isn?t really any more to say on the subject and I would definitely recommend this washing up liquid for price, fragrance and excellent cleaning. What more could you want?...

Review of Tesco Washing up Liquid French Lavender

Fairy washing up liquid kind to your hands

Advantages: Kind to skin long lasting, good value for money
Disadvantages: lavender type isnt the best to buy

...I usually use the original fairy liquid they all seem to hold all the same attributes you dont need to use alot of this to make a bowl of washing up and it works well to dissolve the tough food that is stuck on the bowls. I was up about 3 times a day we seem to cause alot of washing up in out house so my hands are always in water and this does not seem to dry out my hands it keeps them feeling soft and like ladies hands should be it doesnt weaken my nails either. I get mine on a 2 for £2 from asda which is great and it holds a 30% extra free in each bottle too which is great because it lasts me longer a bottle will last me between 2 to 3 weeks. It is good value for money keeps your hands feeling soft and as the advert says mild fairy liquid it is definatley mild which you will experiance when you have used it. I wouldnt...

Review of Fairy Washing Up Liquid

Persil washing up liquid: perfume for crockery

Advantages: Does the job
Disadvantages: Leaves scent is cups and mugs

...Why, oh why, I ask myself, do good brand names play around with their products and end up making them worse, instead of better. It happened with Special K when they converted to bigger flakes instead of the tiny ones and the taste was ruined. Um! Sorry getting carried away on another topic. Well, 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. The other day I decided to go back because I spotted a beautifully, milky, pale green coloured aloe vera Persil liquid and I really quite fancied it. Anyway, I did my usual and just squirted the liquid into the wash up bowl, added hot water and started the job. There were a lot of bubbles for amount of the product I had used...

Review of Persil Washing Up Liquid

Have you washed your hands?

Advantages: Moisturising liquid soap
Disadvantages: Perfumed

...Dove was only launched in the UK 12 years ago, making it Unilever's fourth youngest brand. Dove is committed to widening the definition of beauty for women because they believe real beauty comes in all ages, shapes and sizes. To help you enjoy your own brand of beauty, Dove provides an extensive range of cleansing and personal care products that make a genuine difference to the condition and feel of your skin and hair. I read that information on their site and thought - no mention of men! I must admit I think the product I am reviewing today is more suitable for women and so gentlemen, although this may not be for you, you might like to read on and make the ladies in your life happy by treating them. And yes, treating them is the correct word as this liquid soap doesn't come cheap! But I'm sure we are all worth it. Hand-washing is...

Review of Dove Cream Wash Liquid Soap

Wash your hands of it!

Advantages: Smells nice, leaves skin soft and smooth
Disadvantages: a little more expensive than other hand washes

...is pretty expensive for a hand wash and hand cream, but it really looks very posh sitting on your bathroom shelf. Now Boots sell these items separately and I couldn't see it online at all?so am assuming it was only available as a gift set because of Christmas. You may still find it in some stores as a gift set but as it available separately I am going to review each one on its own. Wash your hands of it The hand wash aptly named "Wash your hands of it" can be purchased in a 250ml (8.4 fl oz) pump action bottle, made of recyclable plastic. The bottle itself is clear so you can see exactly how much is left and also the lovely transparent pale pink liquid gel wash inside. Labelling Normally labels don't hold much interest for me but I really love the label on this as it just makes you want to pick it up and have a closer...

Review of Soap & Glory Wash your hands of it

My Preferred Hand Wash

Advantages: Texture, Scent , Reliability and Availability
Disadvantages: A bit artificial and very low moisturiser

...Dettol is a well known brand which I remember since my early childhood days. As far as I can remember , some 20-25 yrs back, when I was a small kid and my mom used to shout on us ordering us to wash our hands using Dettol Anti Bacterial soap. I believe during those days , only Dettol could claim to have anti bacterial properties on their products. With time, several brands have come including luxury brands but I never lost my faith in Dettol and I still use a few products from them (Though not any beauty products !! ) I am a regular user of Dettol Handwash and so I thought it would be easier for me to write something on it as my first review. I buy 2 bottles every month for my 2 bathrooms. And generally I get one free on other. POSITIVES: ----------------- The PACKAGING is nice and as a regular user I can identify...

Review of Dettol Hand Wash (Liquid Soap)

Surcare - a gentle washing up liquid

Advantages: An effective and gentle washing up liquid
Disadvantages: None

...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...

Review of Surcare Washing Up Liquid

Ecover washing up liquid

Advantages: A good quality environmentally friendly product
Disadvantages: maybe a little short on bubbles

...Ecover Washing up liquid comes simply bottled in plain white plastic ,but the packaging goes one step further,the bottle and label are made from polyethylene and the cap is made from polypropylene,both of which are 100 % recyclable. What Ecover say about the product : The liquid is freshly perfumed and made from plant ingredients.It cleans and degreases efficiently and is kind to your skin. The liquid leaves no residue and it is possible to get a refill for your bottle. Refills are available from many health food shops and your bottle will refill over 50 times before it needs replacing. Ecover deliver the washing up liquid to the Health food shops in large drums that are also recyclable. I sent for a free sample of lemon Ecover washing up liquid from HotDealsUK ,like many of us I just love a freebie. I had forgotten all about it...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

FOR YOUNGER LOOKING HANDS

Advantages: SMELLS GREAT, LOW PRICE
Disadvantages: SMELL DISAPPEARS FAST.

.... Sorry I'm just being silly. Seriously the liquid did smell very Vitamin'y and the colour of the liquid was very orange which mostly reminded me of Vitamin C. When I used the liquid, it pumped out quickly, the consistency was just right, it actually reminded me of a Shampoo although I'm not sure which. It didn't really lather up, and turned from orange to a slightly white colour. But what I was disappointed in was the Fragrance, it didn't last two seconds. Don't get me wrong, the smell was glorious when it first came out, it was almost edible although I do have to say, "Don't try this at home". The overpowering aroma of Oranges was instant, but the after effects were disappointing. Isn't that like having Sex, I wouldn't know of course. Sniffing my hands a few seconds later, and Hey the smell had totally gone, I was dismayed. I can't say...

Review of Palmolive Liquid Hand Wash Moisturising

The next best washing-up liquid after Fairy

Advantages: Works well, cheap as OWN BRAND stuff, smells nice
Disadvantages: none so far

...Living above the family's grocery store, I don't normally need to nip out to buy things like this, but one week a few years ago while my Dad was having to keep spending on stock to a minimum, I ended up having to do so. Past choiches having been restrict to Fairy liquid, HAPPY SHOPPER own brand + "Squezy", and the Ecover stuff i covered in a previous review. I'd plonk this one as the 2nd best of these after Fairy.... Happy shopper 3rd, Squezy 4th & Ecover last. It's made by CUSSONS, the same people who make imperial leather soap + carex handwash, etc. The colour is the pretty much bog-standard green colour, though a slightly brighter shade than the others..... there's also an anti-bacterial version in blue. The standard green one also has a sort of lemon / lime zesty smell to it, unlike other green washing-up liquids. The Blue Anti...
