Advantages: Gets clothes really clean and the fragrance is lovely!

Disadvantages: Some people can have a reaction to biological powders...

Now I'm about to start College next month my mum is making me wash my own clothes - Boo!

She says its good practice - I say I don't need it! ;)

To wash my non-black stuff (not a lot of clothes there I might add then), I used this 'Surf with essential oils' which I was told cost £1.88 at the time of purchase.

This biological washing powder is fragranced with 'sunshine lemons and bergamot' and does smell really nice when you first open the box.

The bright yellow box itself is cardboard and has 950g of powder within it, and the write up states you can get ten washes out of the contents so that' pretty cool!

The bergamot is said to be uplifting and apparently is famous for being calming and refreshing, although I've never heard of it before?
The lemon is said to be aromatic which it is. I can definitely smell citrus in the granules.
Promising to infuse your clothes leaving them brilliantly clean with uplifting fragrances also, I became curious to see if it really worked?

There are instructions on the side of the box about how much powder to put in depending on how dirty the clothes are, I used 115 ml for my load which was fine.

The makers Unilever say its fine to wash at 30%, but I put mine in a 405 degree cycle.

I was really pleased with the results as I hung my clean clothes out, everything looked bright and clean and smelt really lovely too! Given the results I think this product deserves 5 stars as it did such a good job of my laundry! I also think it's an economical buy compared to some of the other brands out there and I would use it again - even when I have to pay for it myself, lol! (:

The aroma stayed in the fabrics although it did fade a bit on wearing but you would expect that anyway...

Summary: One for me, I liked this product it did the job it's designed to do really well.
