Q1 How did using new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness make your hands feel after using it? What did other household users say about this?

I found my hands were softer after using it, my friend who like me has sensitive skin took some in a little pot to try and said it made her hands feel softer and didn't aggravate her eczema. When it came to shaking hands at church this morning I found that I noticed someone else's hands were rough, mine would have been as bad before using the Fairy Blush

Q2 How did new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness compare to your normal dish washing liquid?

I usually find that the bubbles disappear if I have to wash a greasy dish, but the bubbles lasted a long time, I found it was excellent for pre-soaking really dirty dishes before putting them in my dishwasher, they came cleean first time. I still have a lot left, it seems very economical, more so than regular Fairy, it seems richer and creamier

Q3 Do you think you would buy new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness again? (The recommended price is £1.50 for 433ml though retailers may well have it on special offer)

Yes I would, but I might buy a different fragance, I didn't really like the smell it was a bit "perfumey" for washing up liquid

Q4 Would you recommend (or have you already recommended) new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness to your friends?

I have suggested it to several friends with sensitive skin and the friend who tried it said that she found it very economical, I only gave her a tiny amount in a pot and she found it went a long way and cleaned really well

Any other comments?

I really didn't like the smell and my friend who tried it commented that her cats refused to eat food from a dish that had been waahed in it

Q1How did using new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness make your hands feel after using it? What did other household users say about this?

It doesn't irritate my skin the way many other brands have done. I avoid many bands as they give me contact dermatitis. Dh didnt notice any difference

Q2 How did new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness compare to your normal dish washing liquid?

I normally buy Lidl's own brand and i would say its equally effective

Q3 Do you think you would buy new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness again? (The recommended price is £1.50 for 433ml though retailers may well have it on special offer)

Yes, but a different fragrance, I disliked the perfumed smell of the silk and orchid, i prefer a citrus smell

Q4 Would you recommend (or have you already recommended) new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness to your friends?

If someone asked me then i woudl

Questions:
Q1 How did using new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness make your hands feel after using it? What did other household users say about this?

My hands felt MUCH better than with my usual dishwashing liquid. Dp keeps saying "oooh! my hands feel sooo soft!" but he a) is taking the piss and b)only washes up about twice a week.

Q2 How did new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness compare to your normal dish washing liquid?

I felt a bit queasy using it at first- the thought of the mosturiser in it meant a rinsed the dishes much more thoroughly than I usually would. But I've been using it for about 2 weeks now and don't feel weird about it anymore. In terms of cleaning it seems just as good as what I usually buy- Fairy or Persil.

Q3 Do you think you would buy new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness again? (The recommended price is £1.50 for 433ml though retailers may well have it on special offer)

Yes I would.

Q4 Would you recommend (or have you already recommended) new Fairy Clean & Care with a touch of Olay softness to your friends?

I have reccommended it to family and I would reccommend it to friends.

Any other comments?

Thank you mnhq and Fairy for letting me take part in the trial!
Many thanks
