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

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...

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

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

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...

JD's review of ECOVER washing-up liquid

Advantages: works better than using horse manure
Disadvantages: smells awful, looks like sperm, suds don't last long

...'s pretty weak, and the suds don't last as long as a proper washing-up liquid such as Fairy Liquid, and it smells REALLY bad. LOOKS While most washing-up liquids are usually green in colouration, or perhaps Yellow if it's a lemon scented one, this stuff I recall is either a clear or clear with a whitish tinge to it....... in other words it looks a bit like sperm. SMELL This is the worst part of it, which I can best describe as an extremely strong sulfur smell....... or perhaps similar to the not particularly delightful odour you may encounter while walking past a sewage farm. It's also one of the main reasons I'd rather forget the last ever Holiday away from home I had back in September 1994 with my Grandparents, when they made me wash with this stuff against my will (instead of my much nicer smelling Insignia shower gel) in order to...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

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

Dove Cream Wash Liquid Soap

Advantages: Does not contain any irritating chemicals
Disadvantages: None

...Dove Cream Wash Liquid Soap is a unique way of washing without the harsh irritant chemicals used in so many other soaps. Also, as it is convenient to use as it comes in liquid form so consequently there is little waste as you often get with standard soap bars. Those who have sensitive skin can use this, as well as babies, young children and the elderly. It has a clean, pleasant and fresh smelling fragrance and once you have used it for the first time you will find you will use it again and again. Also, ladies will appreciate the fact that it does not dehydrate the skin and will actually act as a moisturiser. It offers good value for money and you will find that a small amount will go a long way. I would definitely recommend this product for those who want to use a soap that will suit the whole family....

Tesco Washing up Liquid

Advantages: Great Qulaity and cheap
Disadvantages: None

...Tesco Washing Up Liquid This is Tesco supermarkets own brand of dish washing liquid. It comes in a 375 ml plastic see through bottle with a red plastic flip cap. The bottle costs 68p and is available in a variety of different flavours including Lemon and Spring Apple. This is not to be confused with the cheaper Value Brand Liquid that costs around 15p per bottle and is substancially lower in quality. I use this product reqularly. The liquid is thick yet pours easily from the bottle without clogging the cap. The different varieties smell great and really really fresh. I find the liquid to be very effective in washing dishes, pots and pans etc. I would go as far to say that I find it as useful and effective as the leading brand of liquid. I have never had a dirty pot etc. that I have been unable to cean with this product...

Morning Fresh washing up liquid

Advantages: Excellent clean
Disadvantages: none

...Tuesday 8th january - the kids started back to school (thank goodness) but I noticed I had ran out off washing up liquid and sent one of the kids to the corner shop, (I hate leaving dirty dishes for any length of time) They were supposed to get me Fairy, but returned with Morning Fresh, it seemed to cost around £1.00 give or take a few pence, I screwed my face up at the idea of not having my usual washing up liquid, but I had to make do. Description Well it comes in the usual packaging that washing up liquid does, the bottle is clear plastic with a flip lid, and is 500ml, the liquid is green in colour, (well this one anyway) . On the bottle it states this is a Cussons product and it has "triple action with sparkle x, it also cleans, sparkles and freshens. Some of the ingrediants include: 15- 30% anionic surfactants...
