I consider myself to be a real fuss pot when it comes to the appearance of my home and the only place you will find a bar of soap is on the side of the bath where it is neatly located on a ceramic dish. For the wash hand basins and sinks I prefer to use a hand wash, particularly as it looks neater, is easier to use and there is no mess, which is often the case with a bar of soap. I cannot admit to being loyal to any particular brand and tend to stock up when I see hand washes on offer, which often results in around a dozen being in my stash at any particular time!

On the back it tells you the claims of the hand wash and the ...  Read the complete review

First I'll do my part at spreading the bargain news - Carex handwashes are currently in a 3 for £3 deal in Morrisons! Go stock up!! Now on to the actual produce itself. Generally I find handwashes to be far more conventient than bars of soap as they're practially idiot-proof (once you get past the 'how to open it' issue which I'm sorry to say can cause confusion - I've witnessed it), you don't have to put up with it flying out of wet hands, etc. And everyone knows the annoying little bit at the bottom of the bottle that would rather make a slurping noise than come out can be fixed by adding a little water to the bottle. This handwash however has an ...  Read the complete review

Handwash's come and go quite regularly in my house as we tend to need to wash our hands quite often. I opted for this one quite recently as I have never seen it before and it was on offer for only £1 in my local supermarket. --- The Bottle --- The hand wash comes in a see through bottle that is rectangular in shape and 11cm x 9cm x 3cm in size.
