Gentle Wash

Advantages: moisturise hands
Disadvantages: cost a bit more than other handwash

...Recently, Dove cream wash were mostly on offer on different supermarket which gave me an idea to review this lovely hand cream wash. I'm a fan of liquid handwash because I think it's more hygienic rather than soap which hang around our sink. So I'm not surprised that some handwash added strong formula to fight germs, as a result makes our skin dry. So when Dove introduced the new cream wash, I was a bit excited to tried them. Dove is well known from it's famous brand and scent, and for me it's definitely worth buying. CREAM WASH Dove cream wash delicately cleanses our hands and help protects our skin against dryness while washing. It contains 1/4 active moisturising cream similar to those found in healthy neutral cleansing ingredients which preserve the skin's natural balance. It will leave your skin feeling soft and smooth, so...

Review of Dove Cream Wash Liquid Soap

A short review about washing up

Advantages: OK if your dishes aren't too dirty
Disadvantages: Not as good as the branded products

...Whilst wandering around our local branch of Tesco?s the other week I noticed a display of ?discount items? not to be confused with the Tesco Value or Tesco Market Value range. The discount range all have a small square flash on them in yellow with the words ?discount brands at Tesco? in red and a £ sign being cut with a pair of scissors. I suppose it is yet another ploy to help us save money or at least make us think that we are saving money ? or am I being a bit sceptical? The discount items were mainly in a range called Daisy which I hadn?t heard of before but I decided to try the washing up liquid. I purchased the concentrated washing up liquid with antibacterial action in the 500ml size which cost me 67p. Had I chosen the standard Daisy washing up liquid in the same 500ml size it would have cost me just 57p. The idea is...

Review of Daisy Antibacterial Washing Up Liquid

Dermalogica Anti-Bac Skin Wash

Advantages: Cleared up my skin quickly, last ages!!!
Disadvantages: Expensive

...Dermalogica anti-bac skin wash is best used on blemish prone skin. It is a foaming, antibacterial facewash which deeply cleanses the skin of excess oil and impurities with drying it. It contains Triclosan which helps remove bacteria and Salicylic Acid disolves dead skin cells- that last part makes it sound very harsh, but it is really not! It also conatins balm mint, coneflower and camphor to help smooth and purify the skin. It does not have any artificial fragrances or colour. Dermalogica say that you should work the gel into a lather and apply to your dampened face and throat. You should then rinse with warm water and repeat for 'professional results'. They then say for best results this should be followed by the multi active toner and moisturiser (please see my other reviews). I use this product every day along...

Review of Dermalogica Anti-Bac Skin Wash

Lovely wash for sensitive skin

Advantages: Lovely texture and fragrance; quick to use
Disadvantages: I prefer a separate eye makeup remover

...I am always on the lookout for products that don't irritate my sensitive skin, yet I don't want to miss out on the luxury skincare experience! In this respect I have enjoyed using several Elemis products. I was a little wary at first as using water on my skin can lead to dryness and that itchy tight feeling and some facial washes can feel harsh, however I found this product very soothing and a pleaure to use. The product comes in a pump dispenser which is very convenient to use. Just a couple of pumps added to a little warm water in the palm of your hand and you are left with a lovely light creamy lather. It smells very pleasant and not at all overpowering. I would say a man or a woman could use this product as the packaging and fragrance are not overtly feminine. It is also great to use as your facial cleanser while in the shower...

Review of Elemis Sensitive Cleansing Wash

Purple washing up liquid!

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

...When in my local branch of Tesco?s the other week I needed to buy some washing up liquid and so headed to the relevant aisle in search of a good deal. I noticed that the Tesco Antibacterial Washing Up Liquid costing 92p for 500ml was on special offer of 2 bottles for £1.20. I thought this sounded like a good deal so I bought two bottles. The bottle is made from clear plastic and so is fully recycleable and has a flip top lid. Through the bottle I could see the lovely rich purple colour of the washing up liquid which is French Lavender fragrance. The notes on the back of the bottle offer the customer the ?best ever performance, cleaning ability and grease removal?. There are instructions for use on the back of the bottle although I can?t imagine anyone actually needing to read instructions on how to use washing up...

Review of Tesco Washing up Liquid French Lavender

Wash your Sins Away!

Advantages: smell, nourshing
Disadvantages: can be pricey

...Dove cream liquid wash Since having jack I have been super cautious with washing my hands before touching him or his toys. I always was pretty good with hand washing before but now it has become somewhat of an obsession. I make sure not only my hands are washed but anyone else who comes into contact with him I'm screaming at them to wash before they touch!! Due to all this excessive washing my hands are taking a bit of a battering. I am prone to fairly dry skin all over but the more you wash something the drier it seems to get and hand are the worst. So in the nine weeks of Jack's life I have been trying out all sorts of different hand washes to try and find the best one that cleans well and doesn't leave my hands looking like they belong to a corpse. This particular hand wash, Dove Cream Wash, is about the sixth one...

Review of Dove Cream Wash Liquid Soap

No frills eye wash

Advantages: Cheap, effective, great nozzle design
Disadvantages: Eye bath isn't the most comfortable

...Just before the review, I?d like to say a little about my eye wash needs. I work 8 to 5 in an office, so needless to say my eyes feel the strain of staring at a computer. On top of this my eyes also react slightly to the seasonal pollen. Not to say I have full blown hay fever, but my eyes do get a bit red and sore. Recently I?ve found myself going through eye wash at an alarming rate due to it giving my eyes that cool, soothing feeling they are crying out for. The only problem with this is that the branded products aren?t exactly cheap when you?re going through a bottle a week. This is where Boots Eye Wash steps in. I?m no stranger to opting for a generic health product over a branded label; give me home branded paracetamol for 50p a pack over £5 brands any day. But when it comes to my eyes I?m usually very wary, so up to this...

Review of Boots Eye Wash

£1.64 for 3kg. Asda Smartprice Washing Powder is super smart!

Advantages: Cost effective and does the job!
Disadvantages: None in my opinion

...Review of Asda Smart Price Biological Washing Powder I first purchased Asda's own brand biological washing powder a few months ago as part of my budget cutting exercise. Asda do various washing powders and this review covers the basic range version, known as 'Smartprice'. The powder comes in two sizes, 3kg and 1kg . I am reviewing the 3kg size. The Product and Packaging As the name Smartprice indicates, this is biological washing powder is aimed at the budget end of the market. The product is made in the EU for Asda. The washing powder is designed for automatic washing machines or hand washing and the 3kg box will provide approximately 30 wash loads. The price for this size is £1.64. The powder is packaged in a sturdy cardboard box. The packaging is basic, a white background with a green flash along the bottom of the box...

Review of Asda Washing Powder

Dermalogica Anti-Bac Skin Wash

Advantages: felt quite nice upon application
Disadvantages: severely dries skin out (and has a very high price tag)

...I owned this product a good couple of years ago when I had relatively bad skin and was prone to breakouts. It was recommended to me by many people, and despite the high pricetag I assumed on the strength of the recommendations it would be worth it to clear up my skin. Obviously, different face washes affect people's skin in different ways, but once I started using this face wash I found it gave me horrendously dry skin. Before using the face wash my skin had been oily, and using this wash really made my skin go completely the other way and I had quite severe dry patches on my forehead, and at the sides of my face (near the hairline by my ears). I find this face wash very harsh on the skin, and although obviously a lot of people find it very effective I would just like to add a potential warning that it can severely dehydrate your...

Review of Dermalogica Anti-Bac Skin Wash

A Great Wash for Dry Skin

Advantages: Soothing, Natural Ingredients
Disadvantages: Price

...As mentioned in previous reviews I am a great fan of The Body Shop in general and this is definitely another great product from then. ~~First Impressions~~ The bottle is coloured to co-ordinate the colour of the main ingredient (Aloe Vera). The bottle itself is pale green with a simple white label containing some useful and basic information along with the name of the product. Whilst the product would not be described as particularly eye catching, when browsing around the shops it is clear to see that it is part of the Aloe Vera range. ~~The Product~~ The facial wash is by far one of the best products I have come across for those (like myself) with dry and sensitive skin. Aloe Vera is a well known product for its moisturising and soothing properties towards sensitive skin. It contains no pesticides, meaning your skin does...
